India vs England 2017: 5 things to look forward to from the Kolkata ODI

Ben Stokes will return to the same venue where he gave away 4 sixes in the World T20 final last year

4.Can Billings make an impact?

Sam Billings will look to make a mark if given a chance on Sunday

Alex Hales was ruled out of the remainder of the limited-overs leg against India and that now provides an opportunity for Sam Billings to take his place at the top of the order. The Kent right-hander gave a glimpse of his potential during the first Warm-Up match against India A earlier this month, when in pursuit of 305 for a win, he made 93 runs to help his side edge past Dhoni’s men with 7 balls to spare.

Billings has the experience of playing in Indian conditions, having represented the Delhi Daredevils in the Indian Premier League last year and if picked, could put that to use on Sunday.
