India will take on England in the third ODI of the series at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on Wednesday. The hosts have taken an impregnable lead of 2-0 in the series after winning the second game by four wickets.
Rohit Sharma was the star of the show as he scored a blistering knock of 119 runs off just 90 balls with the help of a dozen fours and seven sixes. Rohit looked at his previous best and thus he must have gained confidence after playing a match-winning knock.
Furthermore, Ravindra Jadeja continued to impress as he scalped three wickets and he has breathed down the neck of the opposition batters in the middle overs.
