The last leg of the ongoing India’s tour of England will commence from tomorrow at The Oval in the form of a three-match ODI series.
A short but intriguing tour will get culminated with a format in which these two teams haven’t played against each other in the last 15 months. The last ODI between them dates back to March 2021 when India had registered a 7-run victory in Pune. The match is fondly remembered for England all-rounder Sam Curran scoring a career-best 95* (83) in a 330-run chase.
As far as playing ODIs is concerned, England had whitewashed Ireland 3-0 only around three weeks ago. India, on the other hand, haven’t played an ODI in the last five months.
A primary reason why fans would be glued to their screens across the world is the return of England’s multi-format cricketers namely Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root and Ben Stokes guaranteeing a full-strength English lineup.
