The Indian cricket team is currently touring England from 21 July to 16 September 2011. The test match series of this tour is known as Pataudi Trophy 2011. [1] (Indian cricket team in England in 2011)The tour consists of one Twenty20 International (T20I), five One Day Internationals (ODIs) and four Test matches, as well as a number of matches against English county sides.[2] The opening Test at Lord's was the 2,000th Test to be played.[3]

69/0 (16.4 overs)
Gautam Gambhir 36* (49) |
- Somerset won the toss and elected to bat.
India rested a number of their Test players for their first match of the tour; Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Ishant Sharma, Praveen Kumar and Harbhajan Singh were all left out of the team. The weakened bowling attack showed on the first day of the match, when Somerset scored 329 for the loss of two wickets from a rain-reduced 75 overs. Andrew Strauss, the England Test captain and Middlesex player,[6] opened the innings as a guest batsman for Somerset, showed aggression initally, scoring 78 runs out of an opening partnership of 101, before getting out. Andrew McGlashan, summarising the day for ESPNcricinfo, described his innings as "commanding", and his shots "in good working order".[7] After Strauss' dismissal, his opening partner Arul Suppiah began to score more freely, and reached his century off 179 balls, scoring his second 50 from just 57 deliveries.[8] Suppiah and Nick Compton put on a second wicket partnership of 223 before Compton was dismissed for 88.[7] Suppiah reached 156, his highest first-class score before he was out, and Somerset eventually declared their innings closed at 425/3.
In reply, the Indians struggled with the bat during the second, rain affected day; Somerset's Charl Willoughby took five wickets against a batting line-up which showed its lack of match practice.[9] On the third morning, Suresh Raina controlled the strike well to bat his way to a century and stake his claim for a place in first Test, dominating a final wicket partnership of 84. Somerset once more look assured with the bat during their second innings, in which Strauss reached a century, eventually finishing 109 not out, and Peter Trego scored a rapid 85 runs from 57 balls. Somerset declared at tea on the final day, leaving India only a short period to bat in the second innings.[10] The match finished as a draw, but Somerset coach Andrew Hurry suggested that Somerset had "bullied" India, and that it had been "a perfect three days" for Strauss.[11]
