The final ODI between India and England will be held at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday, bringing an end to both teams’ preparations for the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy.
The pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium has been known to help the bowlers and so it is a challenging venue for batsmen.
Out of the 31 ODIs played here, teams have crossed the 300-run mark just six times.
The average returns for seamers have been 32.31 with 257 wickets compared to spinners who have taken 137 at 36.97. The toss is not implored to make a vast impact, with first batting teams winning 15 of the matches and teams who chase a game victory in 162.
The weather prediction for the match is good with clear skies and no chance of rain. Temperatures are about 28 as the match begins (1.30 pm IST) and will drop to 25 as the day progresses.
After winning the first two ODIs, India will eye a clean sweep in the series.
The team’s management may try to experiment in the playing XI, bringing Rishabh Pant over KL Rahul and Arshdeep Singh in place of Mohammed Shami With Jasprit Bumrah ruled out of the Champions Trophy due to his injury, Harshit Rana’s importance becomes more pronounced.
England, meanwhile, will be eager to bounce back from a lackluster showing in the first two fixtures. Captain Jos Buttler would be looking for improvement from middle-order batsmen, who have under-delivered during the series so far.3
