On a hot and very humid afternoon, England and India took each other
on in what was a do-or-die encounter for both sides. The England
skipper Nasser Hussain won the toss and had no hesitation in batting
first. But with Zaheer Khan and Ashish Nehra conjuring up an
exceptional opening spell, Hussain was soon pondering the wisdom
behind his decision. In just the sixth over, star opener Marcus
Trescothick and Hussain himself were both back in the pavilion, as
England were reduced to a pathetic 7-2. Nehra (seen in pic), who
claimed both wickets, was beside himself with joy.
