Cuttack: Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh – two of India's finest batsmen in limited-overs cricket, rolled back pages for their fans with a breathtaking partnership against England in 2nd ODI played at Barabati Stadium. (India vs England: Full Coverage)
The two stalwarts of the game steadied Men in Blue's sinking ship, after Chris Woakes ripped through the Indian top-order reducing them to 25/3. Both Mahi and Yuvi had been off-colour lately, but they produced two memorable centuries when their team needed it the most.
Not only cricketers, but celebrities from other genres too lauded the duo's massive 256-run stand, which brought Indian innings back on track.
