Having clinched the T20I series 4-1, Team India will now take on England in a three-match ODI series, which will begin with the opening game at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur on Thursday, February 6. The remaining two matches will be played at the Barabati Stadium in Cuttack (February 9) and the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad (February 12).
While Suryakumar Yadav led the Men in Blue to victory in the T20Is, Rohit Sharma is back to lead the ODI side. His form will be under the scanner as will that of Virat Kohli. Both the senior batters had poor Test tours of Australia, but one-day cricket is one format in which Rohit and Kohli have produced their best.
Looking at the head-to-head numbers between India and England, the two sides have clashed in 107 ODIs, with the Men in Blue having a 58-44 lead. Two matches have ended in a tie, while three produced no result. At home, India have won 34 and lost 17 out of 52 matches, while one game ended in a tie.
