Team India, who came to bat first in the second ODI being played in Cardiff, was all out for 233 runs in 44 overs. At one time it seemed that the Indian team would easily cross the 300-run mark, but it could not happen. India lost the last 7 wickets within 55 runs. Shreyas Iyer and Virat Kohli played half-century innings for the team. Apart from this, all the other batsmen looked flop. During this period, Joffra Archer and Gus Atkinson took maximum 3-3 wickets for England.
