Maiden Tons For Bell And Cook as England reach 288

England put aside their recent test series defeat and amassed 288 runs for the loss of 2 wickets in their 50 overs in the first ODI against India. Bell and Cook put on 178 for the second wicket. Cook was finally dismissed after pacing his innings well, for a well deserved 102. his previous best was 41. Bell on the other hand played an aggressive and commanding innings finishing unbeaten on 126 of just 118 balls. Pieterson who came in to the crease late in the innings was unbeaten for a quick 35. Inida fielded poorly and were always one specialised bowler short. Khan and Singh bowled well, both going for 49 in the 10 overs picking up a wicket each along the way. It'll be an interesting run chase looking at India's formidable batting line up.
