IND vs ENG 2nd ODI - Mar 26, 2021

After India won the first ODI by 66 runs, England will need to keep their chances in the three-match series alive with a win.

The second and third ODIs of the series will also be played in Pune. The second match will be played today, beginning at 1:30 pm IST.

Both the sides will see forced changes in the second match owing to injuries.

  • Shreyas Iyer has been ruled out of the remainder of the series due to a dislocated shoulder.

  • Rohit Sharma also took a blow on the right elbow and didn’t take the field in the second innings but wasn’t deemed serious. In case India want to give Rohit a short break, then Shubman Gill can open alongside Shikhar Dhawan with KL Rahul coming in at his usual middle order slot.
