Ian Bell was run-out for the16th time in an ODI- most such occasions for an England batsman. He went ahead of Allan Lamb and Paul Collingwood, who were dismissed 15 times each in this fashion.

The two stumpings in this match took MS Dhoni’s tally of stumpings in international cricket (Tests, ODIs and T20Is combined) to 131- most for any wicketkeeper. He went ahead of Kumar Sangakkara’s tally of 129.
MS Dhoni has now effected four dismissals on 10 occasions in ODIs – most by an Indian wicketkeeper. The ODI record is 26 by Australia’s Adam Gilchrist.

India have now won seven ODIs on the trot in England. They had won five in a row in 2013 Champions Trophy. India's performance is easily the best by a subcontinent side in England and one of the best for any side in England.

The following table lists sides winning most consecutive matches in England:

Story behind Yusuf Pathan jersey No. '999'

Like in life, in sports too there are people who remain an enigma. At least to those who watch them from the outside. They fascinate and frustrate in equal measures. At times, one feels they are surviving on their reputation and not its execution. But these enigmatic geniuses often find someone who understands their worth, who believes in them as much as they believe in themselves. Yusuf Pathan is an enigma. Everyone knows of his supreme leather-pounding power and they love him for that. But to their dismay they don’t see that skill being converted into runs. But those close to him and his team mates see what others can’t. His Kolkata Knight Riders skipper, Gautam Gambhir, surely does.  Questions have been raised about Pathan’s place in the KKR Playing XI since the beginning of the 2012 IPL. And with every low score against his name, they have gotten louder. In IPL 2013, Pathan has played three matches so far and scored 18*, 0 and 27.  They’re not big scores but they’

It was breathtaking knock by the opener that set-up the match for India. The hosts then bowled the visitors out for 251 to take a 4-0 lead in the series.  (Also Read:  Rohit Sharma 264 Runs - Stats: India vs Sri Lanka, 4th ODI ) Post by Indian Cricket Team Updates .

FULL HD HIGHLIGHTS INDIA v PAKISTAN 1ST ODI, CHENNAI, 30 DEC 2012.

Misbah-ul-Haq:  "It was really good toss to win and the spell by Junaid Khan was very good. He has done it before in a Test match in Sri Lanka. Good to see that the bowlers pitched in the right areas in helping conditions. There was a change in the nature of the pitch. It was more difficult to play in the first half, very well played by Dhoni. But Nasir played an extremely good knock and showed the way by finishing the game. Humidity
