In the third and final ODI of the three-match series between India and England, Shubman Gill has made history by scoring a century, becoming the first Indian player to do so in this match. Gill's brilliant knock has put India in a strong position, but England's bowlers, led by Adil Rashid, are fighting back.
Virat Kohli's Struggle
Virat Kohli, who was expected to perform well after his injury, was dismissed for 52 runs. He was trapped by Adil Rashid. Kohli once again struggled against the ball, which led to India losing their second wicket. Despite this, Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer are holding strong at the crease.
England Opts to Bowl First
England’s captain Jos Buttler won the toss and decided to bowl first. India made three changes to their playing XI. Arshdeep Singh replaced Mohammed Shami, Washington Sundar came in place of Ravindra Jadeja, and Kuldeep Yadav took Varun Chakravarthy's place. England will be aiming for more wickets to control the match.
India’s Performance So Far
India’s team has shown great form in the series, especially Rohit Sharma, who scored a blistering 119 runs in the second ODI. However, all eyes are on Virat Kohli, who needs to regain form before the Champions Trophy. With Jasprit Bumrah ruled out, India is looking towards pacers like Mohammed Shami and Arshdeep Singh for strong performances.
Team Changes and Strategy
India's focus is on testing their fast bowling lineup, especially after the injury of Jasprit Bumrah. Arshdeep Singh is getting a chance to prove his worth, as Shami might rest to manage his workload. This match is crucial for India's preparations for the upcoming Champions Trophy.
