India Vs England ODI series, stats: Record 2090 runs scored in 3 matches

17 fifty-plus innings of 50 or more in the just concluded series is a record for a three-match bilateral ODI series, surpassing the 14 between West Indies and India in 2013-14.

Kolkata, Jan 23: England produced a disciplined bowling performance to register a nerve-wracking 5-run win over India as Kedar Jadhav and Hardik Pandya's heroic batting efforts went in vain in third one-day international (ODI) match at the Eden Gardens here on Sunday (Jan 22).

Put in to bat by Indian skipper Virat Kohli, England consolidated a sound start with rollicking slog-hitting to post an imposing 321/8. In reply, India managed 316/9.

India Vs England ODI series, stats: Record 2090 runs scored in 3 matches

Chasing 322 for victory, India began poorly, and despite some repairwork by Kohli (55; 63b 8x4) and veteran Yuvraj Singh, saw half of their batsmen back in the hut with only 175 on the board. (India claim series 2-1)

Jadhav and Pandya's 104-run partnership for the sixth wicket brought India close to victory but some disciplined death over bowling by Chris Woakes and all-rounder Ben Stokes prevented India from pulling off another 300+ run chase.

With 16 required off the final over, Jadhav managed to get 10 but his wicket on the penultimate ball resulted in India's defeat by 5 runs.

However, with India having already taken an unassailable 2-0 lead after the first two games, it was only a consolation win for the visitors before a full house at the iconic Eden Gardens, where the track's bounce and movement afforded good assistance to the English seamers.


Here are the statistical highlights of the 3-match ODI series:
