IND vs ENG 2nd ODI Live: India lose both reviews!

It was a review for LBW for the wicket of Joe Root and India lost it.

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: Four overthrows!

No! No! No! It is poor from Harshit Rana. Jos Buttler defended the delivery back to the bowler and he decided to throw it at the stumps. As the ball missed the timber, it ran away for a four through fine leg fence. India captain Rohit Sharma was left fuming at the pacer, presumably asking him if he doesn’t have sense.

ENG 180/3 (32)

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: OUT!

A sensational catch this is from Shubman Gill and that is the end of Harry Brook’s knock. It was a slower ball from Harshit Rana. Brook came out of his crease to hit it as both mid-on and mid-off were inside the ring, but he mistimed it. Gill gave a brilliant cross-run towards his back and caught the ball with a superb dive. Brook fell for 31 off 52. 

ENG 168/3 (29.4)

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: 150 up for England!

Partnership between Root and Brook moving really well. Meanwhile, Harshit Rana is back into the attack. A Brook welcomes him with a well-timed cover drive. Excellent shot. Partnership is now 50 plus

ENG: 154/2 (27.2)

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: Rahul’s big DRS blunder!

Rohit not happy with KL Rahul as India do not take the review. The Indian captain threw his hands up in exasperation when the replay was shown.

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: Crucial partnership!

Boundaries have dried up since Duckett’s dismissal. But, from England’s POV, this partnership is crucial. This is the ideal track for Brook to get his mojo back.

ENG: 138/2 (25)

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: No Bethell for England!

Strange call from England to drop/rest Bethell. Scored a fifty in the last game and was pretty decent with the ball. Not sure if playing an extra pacer is a smart call.

ENG: 130/2 (22)

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: Axar into the attack!

Axar replaces Varun Chakravarthy, who has been saved for later. England need Brook and Root to bat the next 15-20 overs at least.

ENG: 118/2 (20)

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: 8 runs off the over

The duo of Harry Brook and Joe Root is forming a good partnership for England. In the previous over of Varun Chakaravarthy, the duo scores eight runs, which include a maximum from Brook. 

ENG 116/2 (19 overs)

India vs England Live: OUT

OUT!!! Ravindra Jadeja joins the party and give India their second breakthrough as he dismisses the biggest pillar Ben Duckett for 65. Duckett had everything covered for a big innings. All Jadeja tried to do was just defensive bowling – to hide the ball wide of off knowing Duckett is itching to smack him. The batter goes for a mighty slog. Intention was to his squarer but no way he could have hit it straighter with the ball being so wide. Second wicket gone for England.

ENG 102/2 (15.5 overs)

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: 6 runs off the over

Ben Duckett is showing no mercy on India bowlers and confidently moving ahead in the game. He is taking on every bowler and stealing boundaries. In the previous over of Harshit Rana, Duckett hits a boundary as the pacer leaks six runs. India are desperately looking for their second wicket. 

ENG 95/1 (14 overs)

India vs England Live: Varun Chakravarthy in good touch

After providing India with their first wicket, spinner Varun Chakravarthy is beaming with confidence. He is looking in good touch with the ball and looking forward to get another wicket. In his previous over, he leaks only six runs as Ben Duckett and Joe Root try to form another partnership for England. 

ENG 89/1 (13 overs)

India vs England LIVE Updates: OUT

OUT!!! Varun Chakravarthy strikes on his debut as he provides India with their first breakthrough. He dismisses the dangerous Phil Salt for 26. Caryn traps Salt with his spin as he tries to go for a big hit. However, he mistimes the shot and the ball goes up in the air lands into the hands of Ravindra Jadeja at the mid-on. First wicket gone for England. 

ENG 80/1 (10.5 overs)

India vs England LIVE Score: Duckett hits 50

FIFTY!!! Ben Duckett takes a single off Varun Chakravarthy’s delivery and completes his half-century. It is his sixth half-century for England in the ODIs and he brings it up in 36 balls. 

ENG 79/0 (10.2 overs)

IND vs ENG LIVE: Varun Chakravarthy make debut

India skipper Rohit Sharma now makes another change and introduces spin in the attack. He hands over the ball to debutant Varun Chakravarthy. In his first over, he impresses as he controls the run flow and leaks only four runs. Can he scalp a wicket in his upcoming overs? Only time will tell. 

ENG 66/0 (9 overs)

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI LIVE Score: Blunder from India

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HARDIK??? In his previous over, he leaks 10 runs but the most hurtful part is the boundary by Ben Duckett. Short and wide as Duckett nails the cut shot past the left side of backward point to pick up another boundary. India need a wicket at the earliest. 

ENG 54/0 (7 overs)

India vs England Live: Hardik into the attack

Seeing his main pacers struggling, India skipper Rohit Sharma decides to give some rest to Harshit Rana. He now hands over the ball to all-rounder Hardik Pandya. In his first over of the day, Hardik leaks nine runs, which include a boundary from Ben Duckett. England have hit the fourth gear and confidently moving ahead. 

ENG 44/0 (6 overs)

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: 5 runs off the over

Looks like Virat Kohli’s words did some magic as Harshit Rana shows massive improvement. Bowling his second over of the day, Rana confuses England openers with his speed but ends up leaking a boundary. In total, he concedes five runs but shows a good intent. India are now eyeing their first breakthrough. 

ENG 28/0 (4 overs)

India vs England Live Score: Kohli the leader steps in

Pacer Harshit Rana gets a miserable start. Seeing this, star batter Virat Kohli steps in and shows his leadership skills and guides the young pacer. This is a heartfelt moment as Kohli fails to impress his fans. However, Mohammed Shami once again leaks many runs in his second over as England continue to dominate the game. 

ENG 23/0 (3 overs)

India vs England 2nd ODI LIVE Updates: Horrible start for Rana

Pacer Harshit Rana, who impressed everyone with his three-wicket haul on his debut, is off to a horrible start in this game. In his previous over, he ends up leaking nine runs. This includes two back-to-back boundaries from Ben Duckett. England openers are showing good intent and comfortably stealing boundaries. 

ENG 15/0 (2 overs)

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI LIVE Score: Good start for England

England openers Phil Salt and Ben Duckett have provided the visitors with a good start. In the first over by Mohammed Shami, the duo shows a cautious approach but Salt still manages to steal a boundary on the last delivery. In total, Shami leaks six runs in the first over. 

ENG 6/0 (1 over)

India (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma(c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul(w), Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Ravindra Jadeja, Harshit Rana, Mohammed Shami, Varun Chakravarthy

India vs England Live updates: Here’s what Rohit Sharma said at the toss

“It was a good performance in the first game. That’s what I loved about. The energy was very good despite not being on the field for a while. It was superb to watch after losing two wickets. Shreyas prides himself on that intent and attitude and not to forget the contributions of Shubman and Axar as well. Black soil pitch, not sure. Maybe play on the slower side, that’s what I expect. Two changes, Jaiswal makes way for Virat. Kuldeep is rested so Varun makes his debut.”

India vs England Live updates: Here’s what Jos Buttler said at the toss

“We are going to bat first today. We have been pushing in the right direction, play better for longer and hopefully have a good day today. Looks a bit dry, black soil. Looks a good wicket. Three changes, Mark Wood, Gus Atkinson and Jamie Overton come into the XI.”

India vs England Live updates: Toss

England skipper Jos Buttler won the toss and opted to bat against India in the second ODI on Sunday in Cuttack. 

India vs England Live Score: Here’s what KL Rahul said

“We didn’t expect this. Came here into the dressing room and suddenly felt like we had lost track of days and forgot that today is a game day. That is how the energy and the vibe was. It’s good fun. It’s way different from how we usually practice. Just to have so many people come in even though it is just a practice session was something different,” Rahul said in a video posted by the BCCI.

IND vs ENG 2nd ODI, Live: KL Rahul stunned to see Cuttack’s crowd

India wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul lost track of days and assumed that it was a game day when he saw a huge crowd for the home team’s practice session at Barabati Stadium on Saturday. The Indian team reached Bhubaneswar on Friday morning and had their first practice session at Barabati Stadium on the eve of the second encounter.

LIVE IND vs ENG 2nd ODI: Another debut for India

After Yashasvi Jaiswal and Harshit Rana made their ODI debuts in the first match, mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy has also been handed over his maiden ODI cap ahead of the second match. This is going to be a big positive for India as Varun is in a terrific form. 

India vs England Live Updates: Impressive debut of Harshit Rana

Debutant Harshit Rana was taken apart by Phil Salt initially, and the young pacer ended up as the most expensive bowler at Nagpur, but he made crucial strikes, dismissing Ben Duckett and Harry Brook in the same over to turn the momentum in India’s favour. With fitness concerns lingering over lead pacer Jasprit Bumrah, Rana has an outside chance to push for his case with another fruitful outing.

India vs England Live: Return of Mohammed Shami

India’s bowling attack looks settled with fit-again pacer Mohammed Shami gradually settling in following his international comeback. Having started off with a maiden, Shami slowly got into the scheme of things in Nagpur and dictated the terms in the middle overs, returning with a fine 1/38 from his eight overs.

India vs England Live: Kohli eyes big feat

One-day cricket is Virat Kohli’s staple format, and the 36-year-old needs just 94 runs to become the third batter to reach 14,000 runs in the format after Sachin Tendulkar (18,426) and Kumar Sangakkara (14,234) Having played 283 ODI innings, Kohli can also become the fastest to this milestone ahead of Tendulkar (350 innings) and Sangakkara (378).

India vs England Live: Rohit under scanner

India skipper Rohit Sharma’s struggles continued as he perished for just two in the first ODI, failing to shake off the disastrous run in the Test series against Australia. His dismissal — a mis-timed lofted shot off Liam Livingstone that ballooned to midwicket — reflected his desperation for runs. The Mumbai man has not scored a fifty in any format since August last year when he made 64 against Sri Lanka in Colombo in the third match.

India vs England Live: Who will Kohli replace?

Shreyas Iyer, who came in for Kohli at the last minute by his own admission, made a rollicking 36-ball 59 that has made dropping him an almost unthinkable act. If the past norms are followed, then Kohli will walk in for Shreyas, but it is more likely that Yashasvi Jaiswal could be the one who will have to make for the batting icon. It means that Gill might rejoin Rohit at the top, and Jaiswal did not have a blazing match either at Nagpur.

India vs England Live: Virat Kohli to return?

India had taken a 1-0 lead after their four-wicket win at Nagpur, but Virat Kohli getting rested owing to a “sore right knee” had raised concerns about his fitness ahead of the Champions Trophy later this month. However, vice-captain Shubman Gill had indicated that Kohli could be back for the second match, which will be played at a venue where the latter made a match-winning 85 against the West Indies in 2019.
