Preview
With the much-anticipated ICC Champions Trophy just around the corner, India finds itself in a dominant position in their final ODI series before the big event. What was meant to be a preparatory series against England has turned into a one-sided affair. After a comfortable win in Nagpur, where they barely broke a sweat, India cruised to victory in Cuttack, thanks to Rohit Sharma’s sublime century.
Heading into the final ODI, India has more positives than concerns, but that doesn’t mean everything is perfect. Fine-tuning is always crucial before a major tournament. Meanwhile, England has struggled. Their top order has shown flashes of promise, only to collapse under pressure. Ben Duckett and his team may not be overly worried about a 3-0 whitewash, as their ultimate focus remains on lifting the Champions Trophy.
