(Thanks to Raji,for this picture)
England and India face off in the second game of the three-match ODI series today. The match will be played at the iconic Lordโs in London.
Building on the momentum from the win in the T20I series, India trashed England in the opening ODI at the Kensington Oval on 12th July.
India won the opening game of the 3-match ODI series comfortably by 10 wickets, and the match ended in less than 50 overs combined across the 2 innings.
India is on a roll and will look to win this match and the ODI series so that they can experiment in the third ODI match.
England had lost the T20I series and is now on the brink of losing the ODI series too. They need to win this 2nd ODI match to keep the series alive and take the ODIs into the decider.
England's batters were steamrolled for 110 runs with as many as 4 of their top-5 batters registering ducks. The likes of Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Liam Livingstone, and Jason Roy were dismissed without scoring in the match.
England's bowlers did not have a big score to effectively trouble the opposition. Reece Topley and David Willey trouble the batters in the power play with the new ball, but did not get any wickets to their name. Craig Overton and Brydon Carse were taken for a lot of runs in the match.
Indian openers Rohit Sharma (76* runs) and Shikhar Dhawan (31* runs) made it easy in the chase of 111 runs with their skipper playing some aggressive pulls and hooks for fun. Virat Kohli, who got injured before the 1st ODI might return to playing XI if he is fit to play in place of Shreyas Iyer.
Let extend our best wishes to our team and expect to view an interesting game today.
