England vs India, 1st ODI: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming Details
India and England are set to lock horns in the first game of the three-match ODI series on Tuesday, July 12. The Kennington Oval in London will host the contest.
India, captained by Rohit Sharma, recently won the T20I series 2-1, although they lost the third match at Trent Bridge by 17 runs. Suryakumar Yadav scored a 48-ball century in Nottingham, but his valiant efforts couldn't help India chase down 216.
The three-match ODI series is expected to be a different ballgame altogether. The last time India played a 50-over series in England, the hosts won the series 2-1. Joe Root scored twin centuries to take them past the finish line.
Root has been in impressive form in Test cricket and he'll be looking to carry the form in the ODIs. Ben Stokes is also back into the team after leading England to victory in the fifth Test at Edgbaston in Birmingham.
Jason Roy and Jos Buttler didn't have great outings in the T20Is and will be looking to make amends. The series is also a chance for Virat Kohli to show that he hasn't run out of gas in top-level cricket by any stretch of the imagination.
