After winning the Test and T20I series, Virat Kohli-led team India will aim to conquer England in the upcoming three-match ODI series as well. The ODI series between India and England will be played from March 23. All matches of this series will be day-night games.

India have already announced an 18-member squad. Today, England Cricket Board (ECB) named a 14-player squad for Ind v Eng ODI series.

Three additional players – Jake Ball, Chris Jordan and Dawid Malan – will travel with the squad as cover. All these players have been in India for India vs England T20I series in Ahmedabad.

The ODI series will have zero spectators inside stadiums due to rising coronavirus cases in Maharashtra.

The decision to host all ODI games with no fans was taken by the state government due to the second wave of dreaded Covid-19 in the state.

All three ODI matches will be played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune and all matches will begin at 01:30 PM IST.

Many young players like Suryakumar Yadav, Prasidh Krishna, Krunal Pandya, Mohammad Siraj, T Natarajan, Shardul Thakur, Washington Sundar, Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill have been picked in the squad.
