Saturday 14 July 2018 19:31, UK
Liam Plunkett took 4-46 after Joe Root's century as England beat India by 86 runs to level the three-match ODI series at Lord's.
Click play on the video at the top of the page to watch highlights from the second ODI as Root reached three figures while Eoin Morgan and David Willey scored brisk half-centuries before Plunkett took four wickets.
England opted to bat first and, as at Trent Bridge, made a quick start through Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow. However, left-arm wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav needed just two balls to break the stand.
After taking 6-25 in Nottingham, Kuldeep took another three wickets but England showed much more intent against him and the spinner went at nearly seven an over.
Root (113) and Morgan (53) put on 103 for the third wicket and after the skipper's wicket triggered a mid-innings collapse, Willey's 30-ball half-century, his first in international cricket, ensured the good work early in the innings did not go to waste.
India's innings started in a similar fashion to England's but once they lost both openers, and KL Rahul to Plunkett soon afterwards, they were unable to recover.
Virat Kohli (45) and Suresh Raina (46) tried to rebuild before both fell victim to England's spinners, Kohli lbw to Moeen Ali and Raina bowled by Adil Rashid.
Plunkett then took three wickets late in the innings, including MS Dhoni to end an odd innings of 37 from 59 balls, as the tourists were bowled out for 236.
