Opening Overs clearly were dominated by England based on the "Resource Clock", and the Middle Overs clearly indicated that England was ahead of the Resource Clock and was likely to win.
But in the End-Game Pakistan maintained the momentum and managed their "Batting Resources" much better and it was quite sufficient to win with 6 balls to spare. Scoring 40 runs in 3 overs during overs 14, 15, 16 proved to be the turning point. Abdul Razzaq was clearly the difference.

Sachin 200 ... Truly The Greatest
Sachin Tendulkar continues to surprise all of us. If we thought his recent trot of 4 Test centuries would satisfy him, he produces yet another masterpiece and breaks Saeed Anwar’s ( and Coventry) record 0f 194 and has the unique distinction of scoring the first double century in One Day Internationals.
The first ODI century was scored by Dennis Amiss of England on Aug 24 1972 against Australia, at Old Trafford. It took 37 and half years further for the first ODI double century to be registered on Feb 24 2010 by Sachin for India against South Africa at Gwalior.

Cricket Trivia from the Web ... With Old Man Winter Blowing hard here in the US...

Did you know that cricket was first played in freezing conditions in the Antarctic 25 years ago...?
"Twenty-five years ago this month, one of cricket's most unusual - and almost certainly the most southerly - matches took place about 400 miles from the South Pole. The beer froze, the pitch was "rolled" by a plane, and the bails were beer cans. But it was a proper game and those who participated took it seriously enough.

The beer froze, the pitch was "rolled" by a plane, and the bails were beer cans. But it was a proper game and those who participated took it seriously enough.
The contest was the brainchild of Sir Arthur Watts, a British diplomat and cricket lover who had been good enough to play for Shropshire in the Minor County Championship in the 1950s.
In late 1984, 60 scientists, environmentalists, administrators and lawyers travelled to Antarctica for an international workshop on mineral rights. Watts, who was leading the UK delegation, spotted an opportunity to make history in between meetings."
