After winning the T20I series against England, Team India will be looking forward to starting the 50-over series in the same dominant, attacking fashion with which it took on the hosts in the shortest format of the game. The first ODI between England and India will be played at The Oval at Kennington on Tuesday (July 12). Team India won the T20I series against England by 2-1.
In the final T20I, the hosts got a consolation win by 17 runs. On the other hand for England, it will be their first ODI assignment without former captain Eoin Morgan, who announced his retirement from international cricket in late June. Jos Buttler will have to fill in the shoes of a giant as he prepares himself for his first ODI challenge as a full-time white-ball captain. The return of the Rohit Sharma-Shikhar Dhawan opening duo could be a possibility.
If Dhawan gets a chance, these three one-dayers will be a chance for him to re-establish himself in the team and become a part of Men in Blue’s 2023 50-over World Cup plans. The series will be equally crucial for star batter Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. The 50-over format will offer them enough time to showcase their cautious and aggressive sides and regain their touch.
