India vs England 5th ODI: Detailed Analysis and Live Score Sites

I think that the 5th ODI between India and England is going to be the most enjoyable one. The players of these two teams are now experienced about each other and they want to win the series. This is the last ODI series before Twenty20 Wolrd Cup. So, it is very important for these teams. Winning the series would increase their confidence.

The Venue of 5th ODI of NatWest Series

The venue of the 5th match of the ongoing NatWest series will take place at Headingley, Leeds. As a cricket venue Headingley Grounds and weather it is most favorable for England Team. So the 5th match between England vs India is going to hold on 2 September 2007.

The venue was established at 1899 but the ODI match started form 1973 and the capacity is 14000. The ground is well known as Headingley Grounds. The first match was held between England and Wes Indies and England won the match. Totally, 31 matches have been played in this ground and England won 14 matches and India played 6 matches and won only 2. The last mat England vs India played in 1996 and England won by 5 wickets and India beat England in 1990. The winning statistic of the ground is that most of the time the teams won by wickets.

According to weather forecast report the day will be clear and the temperature is well for both team but the wind speed supposes to be 12mrh. This wind speed will be favorable for the pacer. You can easily go to there by bus but no car parking opportunity here.

According to the field background it is clear that bowling first is favor for one team. Here Indian favor because if you see the last 4 match India won the toss but their continuous failure will not hope the Indian fans but it is good for England because continues success will inspire them to do well in that match too.

What About Indian Batting?

What will be the Indian batting in the 5th ODI of the NatWest series? Indian batting is always notable but in the NatWest series they did not able to show anything unique which is asset for the 5th ODI. From the first match of 7th matches series its top order batsmen continue failure makes the team weak. Dear fans you all hoped that they would show a good performances on the 4th match at Manchester but nothing. I think all of Indian fans are disappointed to see these kinds of job.

If you would watch the 3rd ODI in the TV channel ESPN I think you heard the valuable discussion of Sunil Gavasker and Ravi Shastri. In their discussion the notable thing was about the slow movement of their running between the wickets. Especially their target was about Sourav Ganguly although he did 72 runs in that match. But Indian captain Rahul Dravid hoped that Sourav Ganguly’s back to the run will help the next matches (4th, 5th, 6th and 7th) but nothing. Sourav’s non-responsible batting in the 4th match that will not encourage in the 5th match.

I read an important comment of Sunil Gavaskar about Indian batting line. In that article he wrote that for Indian team needs some strong all rounder then India will do well.

Indian Team Requires of All-rounder

If you observe with wide view you will be clear that Indian is passing a very bad time in the NatWest series. The next matches of this series will be most important for Indian team. The cricket expert Sunil Gavaskae and Indian skipper Rahul Dravid both think that now Indian has a lacking for some all-rounder.

Sify reported about "The absence of a quality all-rounder has been a longstanding problem for India ever since the retirement of Kapil Dev," Dravid said after the 42-run defeat at Edgbaston which put England 2-1 ahead in the seven-match series.

Meanwhile, fielding continued to be one of the the major areas for concern for India and Dravid sought improvement. "Fielding has been a problem. We cannot overnight become fantastic fielders but we definitely need to improve and play better," Dravid said.

The Remarkable side of English Team in 5th ODI

The 5th match will begin on 2 September at Headingley, Leeds. There is no doubt that both of the side of England team is the best. In the seventh matches NatWest Series the control of the last four matches was to the favor of England. These notable jobs will help them and influence them to do well in the 5th match. Form fans to cricket specialists also have praised them to their remarkable jobs.

In the bowling side all the bowler show very good performances also the fielding side was so strong. For those well presentations they were all-out India in a short score. Indian team did not make a big score more than 212. For English’s strong bowling and fielding India had to face in batting downfall and scored only 212 except Sachin Tendulkar and Yuvraj Singh no one did not face well of England’s bowling. English bowler achieved best in his career. He took 4 wickets by 51 runs.

Another notable thing is the batting side. To achieve the target 213 England felt batting downfall and lost 7 wickets within 114 but the lower order batsmen RS Bopara and bowler SCJ Broad did a strong partnership and reached England to win the match. For these surprising jobs they both achieve the prize man of the match.

The Source of Serially breakdown of Indian Team

Indian team is going to play the 5th match with England of the 7th matches’ series on Sunday, 2 September 2007 at Headingley, Leeds. But the previous matches of India are regretfully. They did not play well among the four matches although they won in the second matches. There are many cause of Indian team’s serially breakdown, like batting, bowling and fielding. There were not any notable things among the four matches. I think all Indian fans are not in high spirits on their performances. So what the team should do?

During the 4th match, the commentary and the cricket specialists were though the there comments on both of their jobs batting, bowling and fielding that was disappointed. They were telling that it seems that Indian players were not attentive on their jobs. Specially, at the time of fielding the over through, stopping boundary without using two hands was the annoying act of the Indian team.

In the 5th match Indian’s activities was totally annoying. Basically fielding, after batting breakdown the bowling raised hope to the fans but their non-responsible fielding destroyed all things. I think it needs to punish this kind of fielders. If these kinds of activities repeated in the 5th match then Indian fan’s anticipation will be buried down on the sand.
