However, in the chase, England flattered under pressure. Harshit Rana and Arshdeep Singh’s tight spells induced a collapse as England were bowled out for 214 runs.

Here’s how India vs England third ODI panned out in Ahmedabad:

India had to bat first for a change in the third ODI but captain Rohit Sharam failed to adjust to the new ball and lost his wicket on the second delivery he faced. However, Virat Kohli finally regained his form with a gritty half-century.

He looked in great touch and slammed some beautiful cover drivers before Adil Rashid forced him to a knick a faint edge. Regardless, Shubman Gill didn’t let India’s momentum shift. He hammered Gus Atkinson and Rashid to bring up a sublime century. He finished with a total of 112 off 102 balls, including 14 boundaries and 3 sixes.

Meanwhile, Shubman Gill also had the support of Shreyas Iyer. The man in-form slammed another half-century to hit 78 off 64 balls. Gill and Iyer knitted a 104-run partnership for the third wicket. On the other hand, KL Rahul added 40 crucial runs off 29 balls which helped India cross the 300-run mark and finish with 356/10.

India’s bowling attack didn’t allow England’s top order to settle on the crease for a longer time. In-form openers Phil Salt and Ben Duckett were dismissed on 23 and 34 respectively by Arshdeep Singh. He got rid of the dangerous pair in the powerplay, thus slowing down the scoring rate.

Axar Patel cleaned up Joe Root by luring him into a drive. However, Root mistimed his shot and got an inside edge which crashed into the stumps.

Harshit Rana turned up with a game-changing spell. He sent Harry Brook and Jos Buttler’s stumps flying with short and back-of-the-length deliveries. That marked the end of England’s hopes as they were reduced to 161/6. 

Hardik Pandya also joined the party to fetch two important wickets of Adil Rashid and Mark Wood. While Gus Atkinson added a valiant 38 off 19 balls, Axar delivered the final blow to clean him up and secure a dominant 142-run victory as well as a series sweep victory.
