India vs England: Strong partnership between Kohli and Gill
Kohli and Gill are building a strong partnership, scoring at over 6 runs per over. They are balancing attack and defence well. India will need to reach around 300 runs, even if batting becomes tougher later. To get there, one of these two batters needs to stay until the 40th or 45th over while the others take risks. Both players are batting brilliantly, and India hopes to extend this partnership for a solid foundation.

India vs England live: Kohli and Gill eyeing centuries in 3rd ODI
Virat Kohli has started well, playing some nice shots and looking in good form. As he prepares for the Champions Trophy 2025, he will be hoping to score some runs for confidence. After Rohit’s century in the last game, Kohli will be aiming for one too. At the other end, Shubman Gill is also in great touch, having played well in both games of the series but not converting them into centuries. He will be hoping to turn this innings into a big score.

While Mark Wood is bowling well from one end, Saqib Mahmood hasn't found his rhythm yet. He's trying to get the ball to move, but there isn't much help for him. On the other hand, Wood's extra pace is making it tough for the batters. However, any movement Saqib did get with the ball early on will fade away quickly. It will be interesting to see how the pitch behaves as the ball gets older and softer. In the World Cup 2023 final and other matches, we've seen it become harder to bat as the ball ages. The question now is whether England's fast bowlers have the skills to make the most of the older ball.

India vs England live score: Mark Wood gets Rohit Sharma Out
Saqib Mahmood started the bowling for England and tried to swing the ball, but there wasn't much help from the pitch. The pitch is a black soil wicket, similar to the one in Cuttack. Mark Wood was brought into the attack and managed to get the big wicket of Rohit Sharma. It was a great delivery from Wood. The ball pitched around the middle stump and moved slightly away, taking the outside edge of Rohit's bat and going straight to the wicketkeeper. After scoring a century in the previous game, this is a disappointment for Rohit, who once again stayed on the backfoot while batting.

India vs England Live: Jos Buttler, the England captain, said at the toss
"We are going to bowl first today. The expected dew might have influenced our decision, and it could spin a bit later. We batted first in the first two games, so today will be a different experience as we prepare for the Champions Trophy. The pitch looks good, similar to when we played New Zealand in the World Cup a few years ago. It’s a black soil pitch, and it played better in the second half. We have one change—Tom Banton is replacing Jamie Overton in the team."
