48 runs needed from 30 balls (5 overs). I stopped watching 2 hrs back, as I had to attend to a family emergency. And when I was back I was really surprised to see the scoreboard. I was expecting that the match would have got finished by the time I got back. Sam Curran is playing an exceptional innings right now. He gave hope to England, when it looked as if India had everything under control. If target was 10-15 runs lower, then England actually had a chance.

With 3 wickets left, England is in need of 95 runs from 90 balls. This is an easy target to be reached. My mind says, there is more chance of win for England, because slowly the run rate is being maintained. Sam Curran and Rashid are doing good maintaining the strike rate. So there is less chance of match moving towards pressure situation.
Only 3 wickets left who are also tailenders, Do you expect them to win this match from now?

If it happens then it is going to be an historic win in the history of cricket but its not going to happen anyway.

IND just needs 3 more wickets to win all the formats in this series. Smiley
Everyone believed them to be the tailenders, but they're giving a tremendous performance. Right now just 51 required from 34 balls and two wickets in hand. If it was a win for India, now this could've happened. India had already made the record winning the test match and T20 series. Now it's time for ODI, but the England tailenders are giving a hard fight for it.

India could have easily reached 340 or 350 if the bowlers batted well towards the end though 330 is still a respectable score. Am expecting India to win this decider and the ODI series as long as their bowlers don't mess up.

England are over-dependent on their top order. If they get out early, I guess it's game-over for England. Excited for the 2nd innings.

Even a total close to 400 was possible. I am not joking. When Rishabh Pant got out, they were 256/5 after 36 overs. And in the previous match, India had scored 127 runs from the last 10 overs. Before Pant got out (followed by Hardik), I was thinking that a total of ~400 may be possible. But once these two got out, the batsmen who came to replace them (Shardul and Krunal) couldn't keep the momentum going.

Anyway, they have an excellent opportunity here. Jason Roy is back in pavilion after the 1st over.
Both the openers lost their wickets now, so its really a great start from Indian bowling unit. Talking about the first innings we can't expect bowlers to bat for too long that is why a batsman should stay in the crease or atleast in one end to get the final over blow but anyway the damage has been done in the early stage itself now time for the bowlers.

I read that when it comes to decider match India won 11 times out of 12 matches.
This is now a dead win for India. They just need one more wicket and the run rate would ultimately slow down. I think England thought that this match would be more like the previous encounter but Bhuvi and Natrajan along with Thakur got great help from the track today and the result has been altogether different so far.

Here you go there goes another wicket and now I think India is invincible from this point. A very bad tour for England you have to agree.

Now just 2 to tie the series but its not impossible.  Sam Curren just reached his 50 in 45 balls. If Wood can keep his wicket and just rotate the strike. Its possible to chase the total down. I'm not celebrating yet..but the chances are low. Indian bowlers do possess the quality to finish things off.

The match is essentially over by now. Liam Livingstone was England's last hope and he's also gone now. Whatever you say about India, one thing needs to be admitted. They always perform well during the decider matches. It doesn't matter whether it's a bilateral series or an ICC championship. They know how to win the crucial matches. BTW, Dawid Malan is also gone now.

Will join the pool this week Smiley.

Great, hope others will follow, just remember that this year we have deadline to enter the pool. Royse might extend the date but keep checking the IPL thread or at-least drop him text about it.

---------------------
Eng vs Ind

Run rate is not problem for the England, wickets are. They keep loosing wickets. Lord Thakur is already took 2 wickets, 2 more wickets and he's front runner for the man of the match for all round performance, hope he gets there if India wins.

----------------
Ah well another one for Thakur Saab!

Yeah.. advantage with India now. Three of the best England batsmen are now back in pavillion (Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow and Ben Stokes) and they still need another 250+ runs. Now England needs a miracle performance from their middle order and lower order, which is extremely unlikely given the poor form of players such as Jos Buttler and Moeen Ali. I guess now it's just a matter of time before the Indian spinners wrap up the England innings.
One more big wicket for India, Jos Buttler going to the pavilion. I guess tonight India can defeat this total as they bowling so well. England can easily achieve any target on their day, but I don't think it will be that easy make 230+ runs. Cricket is always unpredictable but today there no miracle...

Ben stokes now gone and England are 75/3 in 11.4 overs. I think India can easily win this match if they manage to get either of Malan or Butler out in another 50 runs without being expensive on the way. India should have this in the bag, even though it didn't seem like it at the start of the innings.

India wasted a big opportunity after the 100+ runs opening partnership, so far all 4 wicket fell against the spinners but this time no front line spinner in the Indian squad. Gone are the days when Indian batsmen were almost invincible against the spinners. Now Pant-Pandaya against the spinners, this should be fun for the audience.

India all out for 329 and England needs to score at a rate of 6.60 per over. England would be really happy with the fight back from their bowlers. For India, Pant and Hardik put up another solid middle order partnership, but there was very little support once both of them got out. Shardul and Krunal added valuable runs, but they looked to be in a hurry and got out. They should have at least batted for the full 50 overs.

India is cruising at a good run rate of over 7 but they lost 5 wickets and Pandya brothers are in the crease and 13 more overs left for the match and they need to build a huge partnership if India needs to win as England is also in tremendous form and they has the team to chase any score and anything below 360 runs England will chase them easily .

Will join the pool this week Smiley.

In this match if England stops India within 300, then England will play with more confidence. With the previous match performance England seems to be stronger, and India will be under pressure. However the openers always have a big thing to do in the match. Lets see who is gonna make a turning point in the match.

For England Mark wood replacing Tom Curran and For India Natarajan in and Kuldeep out - no chahal-

The ODI series decider is today and England will be looking to win the match and series as they had a disappointing tour loosing the Test series and T20 series and if they could win this match they could win one series and the trouble with India is that the England batsman are playing well against the Indian spinners and they are struggling to control the run flow.

I expect Yuzvendra Chahal will be back in the team and Washington Sundar to replace Krunal Pandya.

For England, there are two problematic spots. First one is their bowling in the depth overs (they conceded 127 runs during overs 41-50 in the second match, and a total of 115 runs during the first match). If they continue to concede 100 plus runs in the last 10 overs, then the chances of a win will remain low. The second factor is the weakness with their middle and lower order, although the inclusion of Liam Livingstone seems to have strengthened them.
I think that's due to Jofra Archer not being in the side due to injury. He is one of the main death bowlers that England has without him the bowling attack of England looks pretty weak. So all they have to play is their batting attack. I think they should once again ensure that they should bat second so as to play at their strength in the second half of the game.
As per Google India's chance of winning this match is higher than England.
Hahaha

Does Google took account of Kohstrategy, suckshikharism, cutespins algorithm?

If not then result is going to be same as 2nd match. I would like if Virat wins the toss today and field first.
I don't think it's winning algo or something what if it's just fan score decided by more number of search for a particular team or what  Cheesy Google does crazy things sometimes or maybe they have given 5% home team edge to India.



Edit: haha here we go again. England wins the toss and choose to field first.
