SOUTHAMPTON: England won the toss and put India in to bat in the shortened second one-day international at the Rose Bowl on Tuesday.

The match was reduced to 23 overs a side after rain delayed the start by five hours from the planned 2pm local time.

England brought in Ravi Bopara for the injured Eoin Morgan – who will miss the rest of the series with a shoulder injury – and Graeme Swann returned after missing the first match at Durham with a virus.

With the match reduced to a near Twenty20 format Jonathan Trott was left out.

India made one change with Manoj Tiwary replacing Rohit Sharma who broke his hand on Saturday when he was hit by the first ball he faced from Stuart Broad. Sharma was the eighth Indian player to leave the tour which has seen them beaten 4-0 in the Test series. (Agencies)
