India Vs England 2nd ODI: India has taken a lead of 1-0 in the three-match series of the fifty overs format after they won in Nagpur on Thursday. The home side, India gave a good performance with the bat first and that too after losing the toss. Jaddu and debutant Harshit Rana performed well with the ball in hand.
Then it was Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer and Axar Patel with the bat who helped India to chase down the score of 249 runs and India won the match by four wickets at Nagpur. Now India would eye to repeat the same all-round performance in the second ODI which would help them to win the series.
In this encounter, the spotlight would be on Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul who failed to do well with the bat. HITMAN has been in strings of low scores and before the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, India will need Rohit to come back in-form. At the same time, Rahul also needs to perform well to cement his place in the side. Otherwise, India has Rishabh Pant as KL’s replacement.
According to the news and reports, the King, Virat Kohli would be back in India’s playing XI for the second game. Kohli missed the opening encounter of this ODI series due to a knee injury. India also would be hopeful that King Kohli gets the required runs in his favourite format and boosts his confidence before CT 2025 begins.
