Preview : Coach says 'this is bigger than the Ashes'. Captain says 'forget T20 & lets start the series a fresh'. Even the Pakistani players looked eager for a contest but the truth is ... India easily won the 1st ODI at Guwahati.

It was surprising to see Pakistan not playing Sohail Tanvir (the left arm all rounder), probably to keep some plan B options. Now, given that Mohali in Punjab offers good pace & carry among all cricket grounds in India - playing Plan B (Tanvir) would be ideal for the visitors. not to mention Pak needs to tune up their batting!

India, on other hand, would be looking to crush any hopes their neighboring country's boys are making for a comeback. Meaning, there's some time before we see Praveen Kumar making his International debut. Indian Oil Cup is open for both teams as of now, but India truly have taken the first step forward.

Its time for some hard cricket now, and you're welcome to Itsonlycricket.com live scorelines for second India vs Pakistan one day International.. Being a Day-Night game - it'll be starting at 2.30pm India time & 2 pm Pakistan time. Convert time according to your region.

How do you rate Umar Gul? Indian fans better start rating this Pakistan speedster with respect he's due for. Gul turned the Indian batting around single handedly here at Mohali. Sachin Tendulkar scored 91 ball 99 and yes - again failed in nervous nineties.

India score, that looked like reaching 400, dipped to a project score of 375 to 350 and finally India finished at 321 for 9 wickets.

Pakistan comeback was so strong, that Shoaib Akhtar bowled a maiden over number 47. But Harbhajan-Zaheer partnership saw India go past asking rate of 6!

Indian batting scorelines : Ganguly 6(3), Tendulkar 99(91, 14x4 6x1), Gambhir 57(68), Sehwag 25(31), 34(44), Dhoni 4(10), Uthappa 0(2), Irfan 7(15), Harbhajan 38(20), Zaheer 9(17), RP Singh 1(1). Umar Gul : 10-2-56-2, Shoaib Akhtar .

Pakistan playing XI : Salman Butt, Kamran Akmal, Younis Khan, Mohammad Yousuf, Shoaib Mallik, Misbah-ul-Haq, Shahid Afridi, Sohail Tanvir, Ifthikhar Anjum, Shoaib Akhtar, Umar Gul.

Zaheer never fails to bowl bad first overs. 3 wides & 9 runs off his 1st over here but Rudra Pratap (toching 90miles/hr) asked some question. Kamran Akmal & Salman Butt the opening batsman.

Pakistan 15 for 0 in 2 overs.

Inside 4 overs - Sehwag, at third man position, has saved two certain boundaries.. looks like he'll surprise us all with his fielding!

Kamran Akmal 12(15) looking to hit the ball, whereas Salman Butt 3(9) rotating strike. Pakistan 24 for 0 in 4 overs. needing 297 runs from 46 overs.

Kamran Akmal out!,13 off 19 balls, caught by Yuvraj at Point off Rudra Pratap. Pakistan now 38 for 1, 6th over, chasing 321 for victory in this 2nd Indian Oil Cup at Mohali.

Pakistan now need 216 from 27 over. at exactly 8 runs per over but they've lost only 3 wickets. They are 107 for 3 in 23 overs! Captain Shoaib Mallik and Mohamamd Yousuf developing another partnership.

Chances of a tight match, iff Pakistan can keep fighting!

In twenty20, 170 from 20 overs is good chase. Today at Mohali - same story is on.

Pakistan - 152 for 3 in 30 overs, needing 8.2 runs every over from now on. Mallik and Younis Khan (46) at the crease.. keeping Pakistan alive!

Required 129 from 84 balls, 9.2 runs per over that is.. will Pak make it? Misbah at the crease with Younis Khan, on 78 from 84 - the Pak key for this Mohali match.

Things getting complex here - Pak need 46 from 30 balls. Younis Khan & Mishabh partnership 100 off 72 balls.. and still counting!
