England vs India – On Thursday, England will face India in the second day-night ODI of the three-game series at Lord’s. On Tuesday, India was far too strong for England at the Kia Oval in south London. The hosts were dismissed for 110 in 26 overs before India knocked off the runs with 10 wickets remaining. Continue reading for a preview of this match. This ODI starts at 13:00 p.m. local time.
England will be left with a lot of mental scars after Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami annihilated them in the first game of the series. However, England is the World Cup champion in this series, and we anticipate a strong response in this ODI.
India put on a near-perfect ODI performance at the Kia Oval and will be looking to get on top of the English batters as soon as possible in this match. If the visitors can replicate their performance levels from Tuesday, they will be difficult to beat.

England vs India
England Team News:
Although England’s batting lineup did not perform well on Tuesday, we do not anticipate any changes to the lineup at Lord’s. The batters are the most experienced members of this team and are always supported, even when they fail. There have been no new injuries reported in the camp.
England Squad
Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler (wk/c), Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali, Craig Overton, David Willey, Brydon Carse, Reece Topley, Philip Salt, Harry Brook, Sam Curran, Matthew Parkinson
Players to watch out for:
Jonny Bairstow
Despite only scoring 7 runs from 20 balls, he was England’s second leading run scorer at the Kia Oval. He has 23 international centuries to his name.
Joe Root
The former England Test captain has been in excellent form over the last 18 months, but he was one of four batters in England’s top six to make a duck on Tuesday.
Reece Topley
Despite having such a low total to defend, the tall left-arm pace bowler produced an impressive performance. In the first ODI, three of his five overs were maidens.
Possible Playing XI:
Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler (c & wk), Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali, Craig Overton, David Willey, Brydon Carse, Reece Topley
England Team Form
England’s performance at the Kia Oval was a complete surprise, ending their winning streak of eight consecutive ODIs.
India Team News:
With a mild groin strain, Virat Kohli missed the first ODI, and he was joined on the sidelines by Arshdeep Singh, who has a right abdominal strain. No risks will be taken with either player ahead of this match, and we expect India to field the same XI as they did at Lord’s.
India Squad
Rohit Sharma (c), Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, Yuzvendra Chahal, Prasidh Krishna, Virat Kohli, Shardul Thakur, Axar Patel, Ishan Kishan, Mohammed Siraj, Arshdeep Singh
Players to watch out for:
Rohit Sharma
At the Kia Oval, the experienced right-handed opener hit seven fours and five sixes for a strike rate of 131.03.
Jasprit Bumrah
India’s vice-captain continues to raise the bar with his accurate pace bowling across all formats. His performance in the first ODI was his best in this format.
Mohammed Shami
If it hadn’t been for Bumrah’s efforts, Shami’s performance in the first ODI would have been lauded. On Tuesday, he took 3-31.
Possible Playing XI:
Rohit Sharma (c), Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, Yuzvendra Chahal, Prasidh Krishna
India Team Form
India has won their last four One-Day Internationals and is playing excellent cricket in this format. At the Kia Oval, they barely missed a beat.
England vs India Top Team Batsmen:
Our England batting recommendations are Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root, and Jos Buttler. From 143 ODI innings, Root has an average of 50.90.
With the bat, we support Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, and Shreyas Iyer for India. On Tuesday, Dhawan was second fiddle to Sharma but still contributed 31 not out.
England vs India Top Team Bowlers:
Reece Topley, David Willey, and Brydon Carse are our bowling selections for England. Willey is a strong bowler in English conditions and should be able to take advantage of the Lord’s slope to his advantage.
Our bowling picks for India are Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, and Yuzvendra Chahal. At the Kia Oval, Shami claimed crucial wickets of Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, and Craig Overton.
England vs India Head to Head
On Tuesday, India extended their overall lead over England in this format to 13 ODIs. With a win at Lord’s, India will have won four of the last five meetings in this format.

England vs India Toss Prediction
India won the toss and elected to bat first in the first ODI. We predict that they will want to bowl first in this game to put the hosts under pressure. When the humidity is at its peak, neither team will want to play second.
England vs India Pitch Report
Lord’s is usually a more difficult place to bat than the Kia Oval. Expect a firm pitch, but the overhead conditions may be especially beneficial to swing and fast bowlers.
In North London, it was sunny with a few clouds throughout the game. From the first to the last ball, the temperature should be in the mid-20s.
England vs India Prediction
England bats aggressively with white ball cricket, and despite the 10 wicket defeat on Tuesday, we expect them to approach this game in the same manner. We anticipate a much closer match than the first ODI, but we believe India will prevail once again.
