India vs England Live Score, IND vs ENG World Cup 2023: Such are the standards that Kohli has set over the course of his prolific career that an average of 43.22 is on the lower side for him. That is what he goes at against England in the 35 ODIs he has played against the defending champions, scoring 1340 runs with three centuries and nine half-centuries.

India vs England Live Score, IND vs ENG World Cup 2023: Kohli has scored 50 or more in every match of this World Cup save for one. In the last one, he missed out on a century by five runs. Had he done that, it would've been Kohli's 49th ODI century, bringing him level with Sachin Tendulkar's record, one that was deemed practically impossible to beat when the great man had scored it on March 16, 2012. Tendulkar had got there in his 451st ODI innings, Kohli will be playing his 275th today. Talking about smashing records.

India vs England Live Score, IND vs ENG World Cup 2023: At the moment, New Zealand and Australia are third and fourth tied on eight points. There are four teams on four points and they are all placed fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth. That means that there is a four-point gap already between fourth place and fifth. For any of the teams below the top four to qualify, they not only need to win all of their remaining games, they need to pray that they also get favourable results in other matches. Conversely, it won't too long for the top four to be cemented and that would mean almost a week's worth of meaningless group stage matches in this World Cup. This was among the many reasons why this single group format was criticised back when it was introduced. While we saw a scenario where multiple teams were in contention for a top four spot even on the final match day of the group stage, we might just see the opposite happening this time around. Wonder if the ICC will be forced to rethink its approach at the end of that dead-rubbery week.

India vs England Live Score, IND vs ENG World Cup 2023: With 1931 runs from 52 ODIs, Shreyas Iyer needs another 69 to complete 2000 runs. If he does it, Shreyas will become the joint second-fastest Indian batter to do so after Shikhar Dhawan – 48 innings. Even Virat Kohli is behind at 53. The fastest of course is Shubman Gill who took an unbelievable 38 innings to get there, just a few games back.

Shreyas has looked confident in the World Cup thus far but you get the feeling he is due for a big one. Barring a nerve-settling half-century against Pakistan, Shreyas has looked uber-promising but hasn't gone big. Today could be the occasion though. He is one of India's best batters against spin and with the Lucknow surface likely to assist Moeen Ali, Adil Rashid, it will mark Shreyas' true litmus test.

India vs England Live Score, IND vs ENG World Cup 2023: Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja, Jasprit Bumrah and Shubman Gill gave a glimpse of what this Indian team would look like in an alternate time realm. In an unusual practice session, Kohli tried his hand at right-arm medium pace, Gill experimented with off-breaks, Jasprit Bumrah switched to bowling with his left hand, and Jadeja transformed into a right-arm spinner. It was a display of versatility and adaptability that seemed almost unthinkable until a while ago. This unexpected turn of events can be attributed to the absence of Hardik Pandya. His absence not only disrupts the team's balance, as India now requires a specialist bowler and a batter to fill his void, but it also highlights the necessity for a sixth-bowling option. In such a scenario, Kohli may need to step in, particularly if one of the frontline bowlers has an off day.

India vs England Live Score, IND vs ENG World Cup 2023: An extended session with both bat and ball during yesterday's nets all but confirms Ravichandran Ashwin's participation in today's game. With Lucknow expected to be a paradise for spinners, Ashwin is a sure shot starter, but it presents India another tricky situation: Who goes out? Surely, it has to be one of the pacers. Certainly not Mohammed Shami. The guy just picked a five-wicket-haul in his first World Cup match. Definitely not Jasprit Bumrah since well… he is the one making all the difference. Could it be Siraj? Hmmm, actually… why not? He has been playing non-stop and a one-game breather may just be the tonic needed for Siraj to recharge his batteries.

India vs England Live Score, IND vs ENG World Cup 2023: Seems like it. The World Cup has revealed a stark contrast between dominating teams and those struggling to find their footing, making it clear which four teams are on a trajectory toward the semifinals. It's safe to assert that Sri Lanka, Netherlands, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan can all but bid farewell to their campaigns, while Pakistan and England are hanging on by a thread. Meanwhile, India, New Zealand, South Africa, and Australia appear to be in scorching form, positioning themselves as strong contenders for the four coveted slots in the semifinals. Both the Men in Blue and the BlackCaps have exhibited consistency from the tournament's outset, but South Africa's series of one-sided victories and Australia's timely resurgence have propelled them into the mix as well. The next 16 league matches will determine which of these four teams will finish where in the top-4.

India vs England Live Score, IND vs ENG World Cup 2023: KL Rahul has been a force to be reckoned with since his return to the team after a nearly four-month long break. In fact, the match against New Zealand marked the first time he was dismissed in this World Cup. Now, with the stage set for a highly anticipated clash between India and England today, Rahul finds himself returning to a venue with less than fond memories. It was at this very stadium in May of this year that Rahul sustained a hamstring injury while playing an IPL match, putting him on the sidelines. However, amid this setback, there is a silver lining. Rahul has displayed impeccable form since his comeback, recording scores of 111, 58, 52, and 97 and seems to have recaptured the same form that once made him an indispensable part of the team.

Today, as he returns to Lucknow, he undoubtedly aims to replace those unfortunate memories with another stellar performance.

India vs England Live Score, IND vs ENG World Cup 2023: This is not England. It's an imposter that has turned up at the World Cup. Seems like England's killer instincts and the attacking mindset is all being channelled towards Bazball and their inclination towards Test cricket. They are the defending champions, but the performance has been nothing short of abject. After going down to New Zealand, a win over Bangladesh was expected, but the manner in which they have simply thrown in the towel against the likes of South Africa, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka, makes you wonder whether their heads are really in this World Cup anymore. We aren't saying this; their own former cricketers are. The equation is simple. A defeat today will bring curtains on England's World Cup campaign. However, if there ever was a moment for them to make a resounding comeback and demonstrate the true quality of this England team and the significance of their achievements over the past eight years, it is now. Will the defending champions please show up?

India vs England Live Score, IND vs ENG World Cup 2023: For the longest time, the rivalry between India and England was viewed as just another competition between the two cricketing powerhouses. It lacked the deep-seated emotions and intensity of matches like India vs Pakistan or India vs Australia but everything changed in 2011 when India suffered a humbling 0-4 defeat on English soil, igniting a whole new dimension in this fiery rivalry. Former captains Michael Vaughan and Nasser Hussain, who had previously been rather reserved, started expressing themselves and found themselves on the receiving end of strong verbal retorts from Sunil Gavaskar and Ravi Shastri.

This marked the inception of an escalating war of words that continues to intensify to this day. After both India and England secured comprehensive victories in series hosted in their respective countries, the stage was set for a truly enthralling Test series in 2021. Virat Kohli's India put up a spirited fight against Joe Root's England, coming close to a remarkable victory. The intensity was further fuelled by India's loss to England in the 2019 World Cup, and tensions reached their peak when the Three Lions outclassed India on their way to winning the T20 World Cup final in the previous year.
