Match Preview:

Team India has taken an unstoppable 2-0 lead in the three-match ODI series against England after winning the T20I series. Ahead of the crucial ICC Champions Trophy 2025, the home team fixed a few problems and recorded two convincing victories.

Virat Kohli will be the center of attention in the third ODI after a run of poor scores in all forms, while Rohit Sharma made a spectacular comeback with a century.

On Wednesday, February 12, these two teams will play their third One-Day International at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium. India may alter their squad in an attempt to achieve a perfect sweep. Although they put up a fight, England was unable to take full advantage of their opportunities. The tourists will try to stay away from a whitewash.

Pitch and Weather Conditions

Weather Report

In Ahmedabad, the weather is predicted to be bright and clear, with afternoon highs of about 32°C. With no rain predicted, the competition will go on without interruption. However, bowling under lights may become difficult since dew is predicted to kick in during the second session.

Pitch Report

The surface of Narendra Modi Stadium has always favored hitters due to its good bounce and carry in the first innings. The middle overs may give spinners some grip, but as the dew comes in, it will get easier to make strokes. Teams chasing have won four of the last five ODIs played here, therefore the toss is quite important.
