IND vs ENG 3rd ODI: Team India Aims for Clean Sweep, Kohli’s Performance in Focus

Published on

After defeating England in the T20 series, Team India has also dominated the ODI series, leading 2-0 in the three-match series. The third and final match will be played on February 12 at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. India will aim for a clean sweep, while England will fight to save their pride.


India’s Confidence is High

After winning the first two matches easily, India is full of confidence and wants to maintain its winning streak. However, all eyes will be on Virat Kohli, who needs to regain his form before the Champions Trophy, starting February 19 in Pakistan and Dubai.

India will play its first match against Bangladesh on February 20, followed by a high-stakes game against Pakistan on February 23.


Kohli’s Record in Sight

If Kohli scores 89 more runs, he will become the third player to score 14,000 runs in ODI cricket. His performance is crucial for India ahead of the Champions Trophy.


Rohit Sharma Back in Form

Captain Rohit Sharma scored 119 runs off 90 balls in the second match, signaling his return to form. Kohli will look to take inspiration from his captain and deliver a big performance.


Strong Indian Bowling Line-up

India’s bowling attack has become stronger with the inclusion of Varun Chakravarthy and the return of Mohammed Shami. The team has excelled in all departments so far.


England’s Struggles Continue

England, led by Jos Buttler, needs to perform well in all departments to secure a win. The team faces additional challenges with the injury of Jacob Bethell.

Though Phil Salt and Ben Duckett gave England a good start in the last match, they couldn’t capitalize on it. Joe Root performed well but lacked support from the other end. Spinner Adil Rashid has made good use of the conditions, but England’s batsmen need to step up for victory.

The third match will be crucial as both teams aim to make a strong impact ahead of the Champions Trophy.
