IND V ENG 3rd ODI:England set India 322-run target to avoid series whitewash

IND V ENG 3rd ODI:England set India 322-run target to avoid series whitewash Kolkata: England batsmen braved regular break-throughs by Indian bowlers to post 321/8 in their third One-Day International (ODI) cricket match at the Eden Gardens here on Sunday. India captain Virat Kohli won the toss and put the visitors in to bat on an Eden track which had a greenish tinge on it. The Indian opening bowlers beat the the bat on numerous occasions but somehow Jason Roy and Sam Billings survived to give England a good start. Jadeja broke the opening stand of 98 runs between Jason Roy (65) and Sam Billings (35). Hardik Pandya (3/49) and Ravindra Jadeja (2/62) took wickets at important junctures but England batsmen still managed to put up a strong total. Pandya snapped the third wicket partnership between Eoin Morgan (43) and Jonny Bairstow (56) to keep the visitors' run-flow in check. But a late flurry from in-form all-rounder Ben Stokes (57), with Chris Woakes (35) for company, helped England cross the 300-run mark. Engand scored 58 runs in the last five overs to finish strongly. The seventh-wicket partnership of Stokes and Woakes compiled 73 runs. CLICK HERE FOR SCORECARD AND COMMENTARY
