"265{Wasim Jaffer and Abhinav Mukund} highest run partnership in the Challenger Trophy"
live Scorecard and live cricket detail infromation
Jaffer top-scored with a run-a-ball 143 and Mukund continued his amazing run of form with 114 as Red put up a mammoth total of 351 for 2. After Tanmay Srivastava and Srikkanth Anirudha added a century opening stand in good time, Red meandered without much purpose and ended up with 263 for 9.
After Blue opted to bat, Mukund and Jaffer played out the first four overs quietly. In the fifth, bowled by Vikramjeet Malik, they took 18 and increased the rate from there on. Dhawal Kulkarni, who began very tidily, should have had Jaffer on 28 but dropped an easy return catch during a maiden ninth over. Kulkarni lost his line hereon and Jaffer went on to cross his half-century off off 59 balls. Mukund's half-century came up off 71 balls.
The pair batted very well in tandem, taking smart singles and rotating the strike. They maintained a constant run-rate and eased past the 200 mark in the 34th over just after Mukund was put down by Suresh Raina on 80.
When Mukund fell at the end of the 41st over, MS Dhoni strode out and hit a breezy unbeaten 34 from 25 balls, while Yusuf Pathan biffed 34 from 18 to further deflate the attack. Malik, who opened the attack for Green, bore the brunt of the powerful Red batting. His first three overs cost 32, his fourth went for 11, and when he came back for a third spell after 42 overs Dhoni and Pathan took him apart. Malik had the most expensive figures of the innings (7-0-81-0), and none of the overs bowlers, apart from Anirudha, went for less than 5.60.
The chase lost steam after the first 15 overs, at which time Red were 96 for 0. Until here Anirudha led the scoring with 56 from 44 balls, but Harbhajan Singh got him to drag one on soon after. Harbhajan and Yusuf Pathan tied down proceedings well and Srivastava shut shop and appeared content to play out the overs. He was sixth out at 237 for a 133-ball 100, after which Red went on to finish on 263 for 9. Once Anirudha was dismissed there seemed no conscious effort to even attempt to chase down a massive target. cricketmore

INDIA SEAL SERIES WITH 5-0 INDIA IS GOING TO WHITE WASE
India won by 6 wkts
Ind: 273/4 (43.4 Ovs)
Suresh Raina 53(53)
Rohit Sharma * 8(10)
Eng: 270/4 (50.0 Ovs)
Ravinder Bopara * 6-1-42-1
Graeme Swann 7-0-56-1
RR : This has been an impressive batting display by the Indians. When they went back into the dressing room during the dinner break, there would have been a few nerves thinking about the challenging target they had been set. But then, with dew coming into play it was always the bowlers who would have suffered. The Indian openers did half the job by putting a hefty century stand at the top and that set the tone for the remainder. Wickets fumbled in quick time after that but Captain Courageous Dhoni and Raina were upto the task to knock off the rest. They showed great application to seal the game and help their side get the 5-0 score.

live cricket indai v/s england day night 4th-ODI..from bangalore
we will infan & sachin again in 4th odi at bangalore,sachin will play after long lime at least 8 months after,he has hits 42 odi centuries.he had palyed 417 odi matches.took 100 out of catches.70 and more half-centuries.,same irfan will back after long time to over come his injury,we will see both brothers are play again in indain team.
Pietersen- SAID THE COULD BECOME DARK AFTER 3:00 PM
A day after bad light forced an early end to the Kanpur ODI and handed India their third victory of the series, England captain Kevin Pietersen has raised concerns about the possibility of a similar problem in Guwahati, the venue for the sixth one-dayer on November 29.
"They [the authorities] will have to do something about Guwahati," Pietersen said. "We are going to start there at 8.30 am but that will still not make too much of a difference. It could get dark there by 3.30pm."
Guwahati is located in the north east and the sun sets earlier in the region than elsewhere in India. In Kanpur, the start of the third ODI was delayed by 45 minutes due to hazy conditions but only one over per innings was reduced. The light deteriorated rapidly during India's run-chase and the umpires offered it to the batsmen at the end of the 40th over. At that stage India needed 43 runs off 54 balls with five wickets in hand but were 16 runs ahead of the D/L equation.
"I think if we had a full game in Kanpur, we would have definitely taken it close," Pietersen said. "We put a lot of pressure on them and there was plenty of aggression from the bowlers."
However, Pietersen called on his batsmen to convert the starts they were getting into hundreds in order to stay competitive in the series. Pietersen's 63 in the first ODI in Rajkot is England's best individual performance in three matches. Bopara and Shah have also scored three half-centuries between them but they haven't been able to carry on.
"We have played in India for years now and there have only been a few centuries by England batsmen out here," Pietersen said. "We knew, coming to India, we needed to score hundreds to stay competitive and we have not got a hundred yet. Hopefully in the next four games we can try and get four."
England cannot afford another defeat in the seven-match series which India lead 3-0. The fourth ODI is in Bangalore on November 23 and it will be the series' first day-night contest.

Selection meeting leaks 'disgusting' - Dhoni
Mahendra Singh Dhoni has described as "disgusting and disrespectful" that matters which are discussed in selection meetings are leaked and reported in the media. India's selectors chose Irfan Pathan over for the next two ODIs against England over RP Singh and reports of a serious disagreement over selection cast a cloud over India's preparations for the fourth ODI against England in Bangalore.
"I don't know where the report came from. It cannot be a report because what happens inside a inside meeting when the selectors, the captain and the coaches are there, when it comes out it is disgusting and disrespectful," said Dhoni. "Things like this should not be happening. I'm not saying something happened at the meeting, but over the years we have seen things being leaked from meetings and things getting out.
The Kolkata-based Anandabazar Patrika reported on Saturday that Dhoni favoured the inclusion of RP Singh in the squad for the next two ODIs and offered to step down when the selectors insisted on replacing him with Irfan Pathan. The report said the board president, Shashank Manohar, had been informed of the argument.
BCCI officials have denied the report. "I don't talk about selection meetings. In any case it is all rubbish," N Srinivisan, the board secretary, told Cricinfo.
The report said the selectors raised with Srinivasan - present at the meeting, as convenor - the issue of a lack of respect shown to them by Dhoni. Srinivasan in turn informed Manohar. The board president, with a reputation of being a disciplinarian, is reported to have said unnecessary tantrums would not be tolerated and that no one was irreplaceable. The team, he reportedly said, cannot be picked on personal preferences.
"This is the pinnacle of the sport. We are selecting 15 guys for the Indian team," said Dhoni. "There will be debates inside and that information should not be put out in the media. If it is meant to come out, then I can say we might as well have the whole meeting telecast live on television. Nobody knows what was discussed except the eight guys in the meeting. And only they know whether its the truth or not."
Dhoni said he did not speak to the BCCI because he felt it was not important. In his view, matters of selection should be revealed by the BCCI, the chairman of selectors, one on of the individuals on the selection panel. "We have an important match coming up and we chose instead to focus on that match," he said. "This is a selection thing and personally I don't discuss anything outside. To some extent it does distract us. The good part is that we trust each other - every player in the team trusts each other."
Dhoni pledged his support to both concerned players, RP and Pathan, who he also said had faith in his abilities. "There might be a scenario where all of a sudden we might want to get in touch with RP Singh and Irfan Pathan. It should not be a case where RP feels he is not wanted and left out. I will stand and defend both these players.
"We do not have players in this team with outstanding talent which can win every game. But as a team we are outstanding. So for us the mantra is being a team and these things will not break the trust we have in each other. It's important for us to be a team." SOURCE OF LIVE CRICKET

That's stumps. Barring a miracle Australia should win this tomorrow. New Zealand lost two wickets too many in the end of the day. Taylor has lots on his plate when he comes out tomorrow. New Zealand need another 184 with four wickets in hand.

43.6 Clark to Elliott, OUT, it's all happening for Australia, Elliott completely misjudges his off stump and shoulders arms, the ball lands on a good length just outside the offstump and cuts back in, Elliott offers no shot and timber
GD Elliott b Clark 0 (15m 10b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
43.5 Clark to Elliott, no run, fullish on the stumps and he drives firmly down the pitch
43.4 Clark to Elliott, no run, full and swinging down the leg side, he tries to trickle it down to fine leg but misses
43.3 Clark to Elliott, no run, moves across his stumps and covers all three of them, he gets behind the line and works it to the on side
43.2 Clark to Elliott, no run, good length on middle and leg, he gets across and defends it away
43.1 Clark to Elliott, no run, lands on a full length outside off, he pushes it back down the pitch
Silly mid-on in place

42.5 Johnson to Taylor, no run, beats him outside off, very well bowled, the ball just seams away after pitching
42.4 Johnson to Taylor, no run, left alone outside off, the shadows have lengthened
42.3 Johnson to Taylor, no run, strays really wide of the offstump, he shoulders arms, close to being a wide
42.2 Johnson to Taylor, no run, full outside off and pushes down the ground towards mid-off
42.1 Johnson to Taylor, no run, lands short of a length outside off, he defends to the off side

41.4 Clark to Taylor, 1 leg bye, angles on the pads and he works it towards short fine leg
41.3 Clark to Taylor, FOUR, outside edge but falls safe of second slip, he hangs his bat out and plays with soft hands and the edge is safe
41.2 Clark to Taylor, FOUR, full on middle and off and driven firmly down the ground past mid-off, the ball comes on nicely and he drives through the line
41.1 Clark to Taylor, no run, full on the pads and he works it straight to short midwicket

40.6 Johnson to Elliott, no run, hits a good length on middle and leg, he defends down the track
40.5 Johnson to Elliott, no run, slides down the leg side, he tries to trickle it to fine leg but misses
40.5 Johnson to Elliott, 1 wide, oh goodness the ball lands outside off and moves away so sharply that it heads towards first slip, not Johnson's fault
Grant Elliott comes in. Johnson has his tail up
That ends a very impressive stint from Flynn. His team-mates can learn a thing or two from him
40.4 Johnson to Flynn, OUT, a wicket falls against the run of play, the ball swings in and lands on a fullish length, Flynn drives away from the body but is beaten for pace, the inside edge cannons on to the offstump
DR Flynn b Johnson 29 (98m 69b 5x4 0x6) SR: 42.02
40.3 Johnson to Flynn, no run, another ripping swinging yorker by Johnson, lands on the base of middle and off and Flynn does really well to keep it out, I tell you Wasim Akram would have been proud of that ball
40.2 Johnson to Flynn, no run, lands on a good length outside off and he shoulders arms

One-day cricket's leading batsman Sachin Tendulkar was on Thursday included in the India squad for the next two matches against England, the cricket board said.
Tendulkar, 35, was rested for the first three games at his own request following the four-Test series against world champions Australia which India won 2-0 to annexe the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Tendulkar, who has a world record 16,361 runs and 42 centuries to his name in 417 one-day internationals, last played limited-overs cricket for India in the tri-series in Australia in March.
Tendulkar and all-rounder Irfan Pathan are the two changes in the 15-man squad which took a 3-0 lead in the seven-match series against England here earlier on Thursday.
The duo replace seamer Rudra Pratap Singh and uncapped opener Murali Vijay for the next two day-night matches in Bangalore on Sunday and Cuttack on Wednesday.
The squad for the last two games in Guwahati and New Delhi will be named after the Cuttack match. MORECRICKET

4.39 pm: The par score at the end of the 40th over is 182, so India are 16 runs ahead ... And the umpires have offered the light to the batsmen. Dhoni and Yusuf walk off the ground but Pietersen isn't pleased. He's talking to the umpires, the England players are hanging around ... Pietersen's still talking to the umpires ... and now he walks off looking rather unhappy.
There's virtually no chance of the light improving so that will be the end of the game. I'll bring you the official word as soon as I hear something. I wonder why they didn't shorten the lunch break, or why the captains didn't agree to use the floodlights ...
Here's a rant from Ben: "Unbelievable, what an absolute farce. Why is there seemingly no room for common sense in todays game. 1) Why even attempt to play a match when you know the light will not be good enough all day? 2) What's the point of having flood lights if you can't use them for just this sort of occasion?"
It's official ... the game has been called off and India have won by 16 runs on the D-L method. Dhoni had talked about bad light coming into play at the toss, and it's turned out precisely that way. India have taken a 3-0 lead in the series.
"It is frustrating, it would have been nice to get a full game in today," Pietersen said. "We're getting better though, the games are getting closer. It'd be nice if one of our batters got in and scored a 100. "
"At the end of the day the umpire made decisions and unfortunately we came out bottom," Pietersen said when asked about the light.
"In the morning at the toss I said that D-L would come into play," Dhoni said. "It was bound to happen. I had the sheet in my pocket when I went to bat. We knew if we didn't lose wickets we would get ahead of the equation. the pitch was slower when we batted and the odd ball was turning ... but we had D-L in mind and we got of to a decent start and were always ahead of the equation."
Harbhajan Singh is the Man of the Match for his spell of 3 for 31.
For the rugby fans out there, tune into Scrum.com to see if England can avoid a repeat drubbing by South Africa tomorrow at Twickenham.
That's all we've got for you from today's game. India's taken a 3-0 lead in the series. Thank you for all your emails and do join us on Sunday for the fourth ODI in Bangalore. On behalf of Binoy George, who was scoring, this is George Binoy signing off. Cheers.

Why is there seemingly no room for common sense in todays game. 1) Why even attempt to play a match when you know the light will not be good enough all day? 2) What's the point of having flood lights if you can't use them for just this sort of occasion?"
It's official ... the game has been called off and India have won by 16 runs on the D-L method. Dhoni had talked about bad light coming into play at the toss, and it's turned out precisely that way. India have taken a 3-0 lead in the series.
"It is frustrating, it would have been nice to get a full game in today," Pietersen said. "We're getting better though, the games are getting closer. It'd be nice if one of our batters got in and scored a 100. "
"At the end of the day the umpire made decisions and unfortunately we came out bottom," Pietersen said when asked about the light.
"In the morning at the toss I said that D-L would come into play," Dhoni said. "It was bound to happen. I had the sheet in my pocket when I went to bat. We knew if we didn't lose wickets we would get ahead of the equation. the pitch was slower when we batted and the odd ball was turning ... but we had D-L in mind and we got of to a decent start and were always ahead of the equation."
Harbhajan Singh is the Man of the Match for his spell of 3 for 31.
