England elects to bat against India in 2nd ODI

England skipper Alastair Cook won the toss and decided to bat against India in the second one-day international (ODI) of the five match ODI series at the Feroze shah Kotla stadium on Monday.

Both India and England have retained the same side which played the first ODI in Hyderabad.

Buoyed by the resounding 126-run triumph in the opening game, India will seek to maintain their supremacy against England in the second ODI.
The emphatic victory in Hyderabad will no doubt serve as a huge morale-booster for the team which failed to win a single international match during their recent nightmarish tour of England.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni and his men have taken the first step in their redemption journey by taking a 1-0 lead in the five-match contest but will have to guard against complacency against the visitors who have vastly improved as an ODI team.
