India Betting Analysis
India captain Rohit Sharma has picked an excellent time to regain form just before the ICC Champions Trophy. It was his 119 that broke the back of his side’s ultimately successful run chase against England this past Sunday. Rohit’s experience and exemplary control makes him a phenom in the 50-over format and England will struggle to dismiss him again here. Back the opening batter to pile up another 30+ runs via the ‘Batter Milestones’ market
England Betting Analysis
Whilst England were on the losing side again in Cuttack, Joe Root wound up as the tourists’ top scorer with 69 from 72 balls. The more ODIs he plays, the better Root looks at the crease as he continues to ease his way back into 50-over cricket after a long break from the format. Back Root via the ‘Batter Match Runs’ market to acquire 33.5 runs at the Narendra Modi Stadium.
India vs England Expert Prediction
Ben Duckett said to the media prior to this match that all that matters to England is winning the ICC Champions Trophy, an understandable stance with that being the major tournament that they’ve flown out to the sub-continent to compete in. But at the same time, it spoke a lot as to the lack of importance the result of this series holds for England. For them, this is about adapting to conditions and getting match time in the players. India however, are playing with a lot more venom and focus, like a team with a point to prove even now. Winning is critical for them and backing the hosts to do so again here has to be favoured.
