By Akshay - February 11, 2025 08:21 PMIn the second match of the three-match ODI series, Team India defeated the visiting team England by 4 wickets and won the series. Now the third and last match of the series between the two teams will be played on February 12. What will be the playing-11 of Team India in this match?
The Indian team has only one chance left to take stock of its preparations before the Champions Trophy 2025. Rohit Sharma can make 3 changes in the playing 11 in the third ODI between India and England on Wednesday (12 February). He would like to try the players sitting on the bench before the Champions Trophy. In such a situation, Rishabh Pant, Arshdeep Singh and Kuldeep Yadav can get a chance.
The good news for India is that the opening pair of Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill is in form. Shubman Gill scored half-centuries in both the matches. Rohit Sharma showed his class in Cuttack. He scored 119 runs in 90 balls. The Indian team would like runs to come from Virat Kohli's bat. He did not play in the first ODI. He was dismissed by Adil Rashid in the second ODI. He would like to bat well in Ahmedabad.
Apart from this, Shreyas Iyer and Akshar Patel batted well in both the matches. KL Rahul has played at number 6. When he came to bat in both the matches, there were not many runs left, but still his bat did not work. Now the team management can try Rishabh Pant in place of Rahul. One reason for this is the left hand right hand combination, which has been seen a lot after Gautam Gambhir became the coach. This is the reason why Akshar is being played above Rahul.
Rohit Sharma (captain), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul / Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Ravindra Jadeja / Kuldeep Yadav, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh / Mohammed Shami.
