IND vs ENG, 3rd ODI: India All-out For 329, Can The Indian Bowlers Stop The English Batting Machine?

Mid-way through the 3rd India vs England ODI, India pose a target of 330 on a ground that has helped the chasing team more often. Will the story be any different in the 3rd one-day?

India vs England 3^rd ODI is a series decider and that’s why a lot will be at stake when Kohli and the boys come out on the field in the second innings. The memories of the 2^nd ODI would be fresh in the minds of the Indian players. How a total of 336 was made to look a tiny one by the England batsmen. Indian spinners went for 15 runs in the 16 overs that they bowled between them in the 2^nd ODI. This shocking stat must have prompted Kohli to pick four seam bowlers in the 3^rd ODI. But team India would like to ignore what has happened in the past and figure out ways to get the English out.

In the third ODI, Jos Butller, the stand-in captain won the toss and chose to field first yet again. The toss was crucial as the chasing team has won more often than not at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. In the last 15 ODIs the chasing team has won nine times. The stats are against the Indian captain. But, seems like he has different plans for the day. He has gone with an extra pacer, T NatarajaN. However, Indian batsmen faltered to the English spin bowlers, raising questions about Kohli’s team selection.

England now require 330 runs to win from their 50 overs. With Jason Roy, Bairstow and Ben Stokes in the form of their life, it will be difficult for India to contain them. We are in for a mouth-watering evening.
