Cook was keen for his players not to get carried away by their unexpected nine-run win after the first one-day international in Rajkot and will now call on his men to put the series-levelling defeat to one side in the same fashion.

The scale of the loss was a little unfair on a side who set the agenda for around 40 overs before India skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni (72) and Ravindra Jadeja (61no) dragged the hosts up to 285 for six with a thrilling late stand.
