Manchester cricket ground ODI records: Old Trafford ODI records batting and bowling and highest innings total

Manchester cricket ground ODI records: India will be playing an ODI at the Old Trafford after three years tomorrow.

The third ODI of the ongoing India’s tour of England will be played in Manchester tomorrow. Unlike the first two day-night matches, this will be a day fixture catering to the Indian audiences on a Sunday evening.

Having last hosted an international match in the form of an England-Pakistan T20I a year ago, Old Trafford will be hosting its first ODI in almost a couple of years. As far as India are concerned, they will be playing a match at this venue for the first time since the Cricket World Cup 2019 semi-final against New Zealand.

With the series level at 1-1, both the teams would want to put on display their best performance in a series decider. Readers must note that India have a 10-7 lead when it comes to bilateral ODI series against England.
