In T20Is, India routed England 4-1. Now, both teams will clash in a three-match ODI series, which will serve as a precursor for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025 for the Men in Blue and the Three Lions later this month. India will look to realign themselves with the ODI format, having played a 50-over match in August last year in Sri Lanka, which they lost unexpectedly. On the other, England recently had a successful campaign in ODI in the West Indies in November, making them a more settled side.Ā Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli Unleash Array of Shots in Nets Ahead of IND vs ENG 1st ODI 2025 Against England (Watch Video).

This series holds more importance for India, with the futures of veterans like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Ravindra Jadeja at stake, who will need to come back from a horrible BGT 2024-25 and make their performance do all the talking ahead of ICC Champions Trophy 2025, which is expected to the final test for these players before the selectors pass the baton to the younger lot. The squad has players like Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Singh, and Hardik Pandya, who look all ready to take Indian cricket into the next phase, but will need to prove themselves yet again.

England, too, will want to rework their path moving forward, having tasted failure in the ICC ODI World Cup 2023, and need to fine-tune their team ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, a trophy that is still eluding the inventors of the game. Joe Root and Jos Buttler will be under the pump to perform, and like other Indian veterans prove their mettle in Asian conditions.
