It's 1992-93 in reverse
Wisden CricInfo staff - February 3, 2002

  • England drew their second consecutive one-day series in India 3-3, and the roles were precisely reversed. In 1992-93 England won the first match, lost the second, won the third and fourth and lost the last two games; this time India went 1-0 up, England equalised, India went 3-1 up and then England won the last two.
  • In his 34th match, Andrew Flintoff took 3 for 38, his best one-day bowling figures. His previous-best was 2 for 3, against Pakistan at Sharjah in 1998-99.

  • Michael Vaughan, playing in his 26th match (13 Tests, 13 ODIs), took his first international wickets, and ended with 2 for 37.

  • James Foster made his seventh stumping in his 10th one-day international. Only one England keeper - Alec Stewart - has made more stumpings, and it took him 146 matches to manage 11. Jack Russell and Bob Taylor both made six, in 40 and 27 ODIs respectively.

  • Harbhajan Singh took 5 for 43, his first one-day five-for. His previous-best figures were 3 for 29, against Sri Lanka in Colombo in 2001. Harbhajan also took his 50th wicket, in his 40th match.

  • Harbhajan is the third man to take a five-for in one-dayers on this ground, and the first Indian and the first spinner. The others are Winston Benjamin and Damien Fleming. This is the 12th ODI on this ground.

  • Flintoff and Darren Gough added 37, the highest partnership for the tenth wicket in one-day internationals on this ground. The previous-best was 36, by Andy Pycroft and Malcolm Jarvis for Zimbabwe against India in the 1987 World Cup.

  • It is also England's highest tenth-wicket partnership in 42 ODIs against India, surpassing the 13 that Ashley Giles and Matthew Hoggard added in the first match of this series at Calcutta.

  • Gough made 16 not out, only his second double-figure score in 36 one-dayers since the 1999 World Cup. He made 40 not out against Pakistan at Headingley in 2001.

  • Nasser Hussain, made 41, his fourth score in the forties in his last seven one-dayers. Starting with the last game of England's one-day series in Zimbabwe, Hussain's run of scores reads: 47, 25, 46, 1, 15, 49 and 41.
