England vs India, 2nd ODI: Match preview and predicted XIs of both the teams

#4 KL Rahul

Rahul calmly finished off the match with Rohit

KL Rahul did not have a huge part to play in the first match due to the dominance of the Indian top 3, but he came in with 40 odd runs to win and scored a calm unbeaten 9 runs. He also picked up a sharp catch in the outfield. With the form that he has been in, he is a bankable player for India and judging from the first match, it seems that he will not be batting at No. 3.

#5 Suresh Raina

Raina was handy with the ball in the first ODI

Like Rahul, Raina did not get a chance to have a big impact on the game but he was as always good on the field. He showed the utility he brings to the team with his bowling, as he bowled a valuable 3 overs that only went for 8 runs and one of them was a maiden as well. Raina did not bat but he looked to be in good form in the T20I series.

#6 MS Dhoni

Dhoni whips off the bails to complete the run out of Plunkett

With such a strong order to come before him, Dhoni has not had much of a chance to bat recently. Dhoni needs 33 runs to the landmark but will Kohli beat him to it? Dhoni was good behind the stumps as per usual, holding on to a tough take down the legside after Buttler got a feather on it and was involved in the run out that ended the English innings.
