India stumbled their way to victory over England in the second one-day international on Friday and the home side are huge odds-on to win the seven-match series.
Rahul Dravid and Co are now 4/7 (1.57) to maintain their momentum and win the third match, in Goa on Monday, and with a good batting pitch expected to greet the teams, it's hard to see anything other than another win for the home side.
For a while, when India were five down with not much more than 100 on the board, it looked as if England would sneak the win, but they didn't, and they are now 5/4 (2.25) to bounce back by winning the third match.
