Preview
With the series now waiting for a thrilling game in the final ODI, England and India are leaving no stone unturned in their practice.
While England successfully defended their 246 in the second ODI, India have a lot of issues to deal with.
First off, fielding has been a big problem for India. They have dropped crucial catches that cost them the game in the second ODI.
Secondly, India’s top tier of batsmen needs to perform well. Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan looked in good form in the first ODI but crumbled in the second.
India’s bowling has remained good with Jasprit Bumrah and Yuzvendra Chahal delivering the goods with the ball.
England for their part have a strong batting lineup and bowlers have done well in the second ODI.
Reece Topley took 6 wickets in the second ODI and received the player of the match.
Thus, the third ODI will be a big decider as to who takes away the trophy today.
