Paul Collingwood makes his bowling debut and takes an important wicket and two catches but a disciplined Indian bowling attack proves too good for England

Collingwood bowled for the first time in the World Cup recording figures of 4 overs, 1 wicket for 15 runs.

He took the wicket of Mogia as the Indians started to accelerate their scoring

Earlier in the innings he also took an important catch to dismiss the Indian star Sachin Tendulkar after he had reached 50 from only 52 balls.

A good bowling performance by India saw England dismissed 86 runs short of the target of 251 with Colly scoring just 18 runs.
