England dominated with both bat and ball to defeat India by 86 runs in the second One-Day International (ODI) at Lord’s on Saturday.

Having posted a total of 322/7 in their 50 overs. It was Joe Root’s 12th century and a blitz by Willey at the end that got the hosts to the healthy total. Kuldeep Yadav starred with the ball for India and Liam Plunleet for England scalping four wickets. England proceeded to dismiss the visitors for 236 runs.

The hosts have now levelled the three-match series at 1-1. India had thrashed England by eight wickets in the series opener.

The only bright spot for India was the fact that former captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni reached two personal milestones during the game by completing 10,000 runs and 300 catches.

The veteran star joined Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid as the only Indians reach the 10,000-run mark in ODIs.
Dhoni is currently on 10,004 ODI runs. Sachin tops the list among Indians with 18,426 runs, Ganguly is second with 11,221 while Dravid is third at 10,768.
Following the defeat, social media was rampant with various tweets from both England and Indian media, here are the pick of the tweets.
