India will host England in the 2nd ODI of the three-game series on February 9, 2025. The clash will begin from 1.30 PM IST at the Barabati Stadium in Cuttack.

Team India is leading the 3-game series 1-0 after taking a 4-wicket victory in the 1st ODI held in Nagpur. They fielded a strange playing XI with Virat Kohli missing out due to a knee injury and Yashasvi Jaiswal making his debut to open with Rohit Sharma. However, Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer and Axar Patel’s crucial fifties helped India secure a comfortable chase.

Moreover, for the second ODI, Kohli is likely to make a comeback and it will be interesting to see how Rohit adjusts the lineup.

On the other hand, England must go back to the drawing board. They flattered in 1st ODI despite a positive start from Phil Salt and Ben Duckett. Moreover, the pace bowling, especially Brydon Carse were expensive in their spells. Its a do-or-die game for the Englishmen to stay alive in the series.

Before the 2nd ODI gets underway, here’s a quick look at the head-to-head records between the two teams.

India vs England: What happened when they last played?

India secured a thrilling four-wicket victory over England in the previous ODI in Nagpur. Chasing a modest target of 248, India stumbled early as openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma fell cheaply. 

However, a 94-run partnership between Shreyas Iyer (59) and Shubman Gill (87) revived the innings. Gill later combined with Axar Patel (52) for a crucial 108-run stand, guiding India to victory.

Earlier, debutant Harshit Rana (3/53) and Ravindra Jadeja (3/26) starred with the ball as India bowled out England for 248 in 47.4 overs. Despite a promising 71-run opening partnership, England faltered after Phil Salt’s (43) run out. 

Contributions from Jos Buttler (51) and Jacob Bethell (51) weren't enough to rescue their innings. Mohammed Shami, Kuldeep Yadav, and Axar Patel chipped in with a wicket each.
