The decider of the three-match ODI series between India (IND) and England (ENG) will be played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune on March 28th at 01: 30 PM IST.
ENG made a mockery of the 337-run target set by IND in the second ODI, thanks to a blistering hundred from Jonny Bairstow and a mind-boggling hundred from Ben Stokes. The Indian bowlers, especially spinners, were taken to the cleaners. Hence, 1-2 changes might be expected for the hosts going into the series decider.
Although they are without their skipper Eoin Morgan, ENG showed great spirit to complete their fifth-highest run-chase in ODI history. IND’s morale would have taken a huge dent after this loss. Thus, ENG starts as favorites to take the ODI series 2-1.
Weather Report:
The weather is expected to be clear, with the maximum temperature being expected around 38 degrees. Humidity is 12% with a decent wind expected to be 11 kmph.
The pitch here has certainly suited batsmen more, but with the new ball, the pacers will get a bit of purchase if they hit the right areas. The average score is around the 320-run mark so expect a run-fest yet again.
IND Probable Playing XI:
Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli (c), KL Rahul (wk), Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Prasidh Krishna, Yuzvendra Chahal.
ENG Probable Playing XI:
Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes, Dawid Malan, Jos Buttler (c & wk), Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, Tom Curran, Adil Rashid, Reece Topley.
