Predicting India’s Playing XI for their third ODI against England 

Predicting India's Playing XI for their third ODI against England 

One of the main priorities which Team India and the cricketing fans are looking forward to is a strong innings from the star batter Virat Kohli, who has been seen struggling for runs a lot recently. This is besides the fact that the Indian Team is eagerly waiting for a series whitewash against England, as they are getting ready for the third and final ODI encounter. This match not only serves as the last match of the series but also marks the end of India’s preparations for the Champions Trophy.

Having already won the series 2-0 with two four-wicket wins in the first and the second ODI matches, Rohit Sharma and Co. will be eager to cap off with a series win at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The venue holds emotional significance for the fans and the Indian team, as it painfully reminds us of the crushing defeat of the 2023 ODI World Cup final. A victory would not only boost confidence but also serve as a redemption ahead of their next major ICC tournament.

One of the key focus areas for India is Virat Kohli’s form with the bat. The star batter has not been at his best lately, and a strong knock from him in this match would be a welcome boost for both the team along with individual confidence. Additionally, maintaining the winning momentum heading into the Champions Trophy will be crucial.

The Champions Trophy is set to begin on February 19 in Karachi, with India’s first match scheduled against Bangladesh the following day in Dubai under a hybrid hosting model.
