Intro:
Post match reaction from Nottingham after India comprehensively beat England by 6 wickets with seven overs to spare in the third One Day International (ODI) on Saturday (30th August), to take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five series.
Script:
SOUNDBITE (English) MS Dhoni, India captain(On the Trent Bridge pitch and how much it took spin):
"Well, I was surprised by how much it turned, because we though it would not turn that much and to some extent we were surprised. It really brought our spinners into the game and I felt (Suresh) Raina's spell was crucial because Mohit (Sharma) got injured and you're not really sure if he will come back and bowl the seven overs that he had to bowl, so I had to get those seven overs from the part-times and happy that Raina and (Ambati) Rayudu contributed more than seven overs and there was less pressure on me, so I think that it was a very good bowling effort."
SOUNDBITE (English) MS Dhoni, India captain(On India's all-round effort):
"Well, it's fantastic... as far if you see the performance you... I think it's a fantastic performance by the whole team. What was brilliant apart from the bowling was the fielding also, you know, (Ian) Bell's wicket at that point in time (run out by Mohi Sharma) was very crucial, then (Suresh) Raina's catch in the slips (to remove Ben Stokes for 2)... those are the things that really helps you as a team and as a partnership going, even when there is a bit of assistance, that kind of help from the fielders, I'm glad you know, that we are fielding really well and it's important in the coming two games as well that we field well."
