The Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati is set to host its 2nd ODI match after a spell of more than 4 years. With an ODI World Cup this year, the importance of the ODIs is huge this year. Both sides would want to play their best cricket in the ODI series after three excellent T20Is.

Team India lost their last ODI series against Bangladesh, and they certainly would want to bounce back here in their home conditions. Rohit Sharma has confirmed that Ishan Kishan will be missing their match despite scoring a brilliant double-century in his last ODI match.
In the spin department, it is going to be a tough job for the selectors with some brilliant options available. The way Axar Patel batted in the T20Is, he certainly has put a strong claim on one of the positions. Mohammed Siraj and Mohammed Shami will lead the pace attack of the side.
