India and England face off in the series-deciding third ODI on July 19 at Lord’s, with both teams desperate to walk away with the trophy.
India had made the perfect start, winning the opening match in Birmingham, but couldn’t quite close things out in Cardiff, where England fought back hard to force a decider and keep their hopes alive.

Social media has been abuzz with talk surrounding veteran opener and former captain Rohit Sharma.
Chatter picked up after the Cardiff defeat, with many speculating that this could be his final outing in Indian colours. However, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia has since pushed back firmly against those claims, making it seem increasingly unlikely that Sunday’s match will mark his international farewell.
Regardless of the noise, all attention will remain fixed on Rohit, who has managed only modest scores across the first two matches and will be hungry to make a genuine impact when it matters most.
