Another magnificent display from Yuvraj Singh saw India beat England by 54 runs in Indore to claim a 2-0 lead in the seven-match one-day series.
Stuart Broad (4-55) reduced India to 29-3 but Yuvraj (118), Gautam Gambhir (70) and later Yusuf Pathan (50 not out off 29 balls) helped them post 292-9.
Kevin Pietersen (33) and Andrew Flintoff (43) gave England hope of an unlikely win but both fell to Yuvraj.
The spinner took 4-28 as England were bowled out for 238 after 47 overs.
The tourists must take heart from an improved performance following their 158-run defeat in Rajkot.
But they will find it difficult to work their way back into the series against a side far superior to them with bat, ball and in the field, as the series moves to Kanpur on Thursday.
Second one-day international, Indore:
India 292-9 (50 overs) bt England 238 (47 overs) by 54 runs _________________
