All to play for at Lord's

The organisers must have been rubbing their hands with glee when India won the sixth one-day international on Wednesday because that victory levelled the series, making the seventh and final match at Lord's on Saturday the series decider.

India made a great job of chasing down 317 in the sixth match and now Lord's gets what it wanted all along.

Not surprisingly, there is very little to choose between the two sides but with momentum on their side after two straight wins, bet365 make India narrow favourites at 4/5, with England currently trading at 10/11.

The omens are not good for England as they have won just one of the past five at Lord's, and three of the past 10.

With Andrew Flintoff unlikely to be risked, England will need to play as well as they did on Wednesday but this time finish the job.

On the big stage, it will need the big names to step up and it must be worrying for England that Sachin Tendulkar is in such good form. The little master has never done that well at Lord's, but what better way to sign off - who knows if he will be back - than with a century.

Tendulkar is the 3/1 favourite with bet365 to be India's top runscorer, just ahead of former captain Sourav Ganguly, who is 7/2, and current skipper Rahul Dravid, at 4/1.

Dinesh Karthik, Yuvraj Singh and Gautam Gambhir are all 11/2 while Robin Uthappa, who finished off the win on Wednesday, is 13/2 and Mahendra Dhoni, always a danger, is 11/1.

For England, Kevin Pietersen is the favourite, as usual, at 11/4, while Ian Bell is 4/1 and Alastair Cook is 9/2.

Captain Paul Collingwood is 6/1, Owais Shah and Luke Wright are 7/1 and Matt Prior is 15/2.

England's opening partnership has been hit and miss so backing India at 8/11 seems to be the most obvious bet of all.
