IND vs ENG 2nd ODI Barabati Stadium Pitch Report
The pitch at Barabati Stadium, Cuttack, has traditionally been tough for batters. Despite efforts to improve it, the surface remains low-scoring and slows down as the game progresses, making stroke play challenging.
Spinners are expected to play a key role, as the pitch offers grip and turn. Fast bowlers may get some assistance early on, but as the match advances, spin is likely to dominate. Batters will need patience to build their innings.
Teams winning the toss may prefer to bowl first, as chasing under lights could be easier, especially if dew sets in. However, if the pitch slows too much, even moderate targets could be tricky. A total of 250-270 might be competitive.
IND vs ENG 2nd ODI Dream11 Team Top Choices
- Virat Kohli– The Indian run-machine is finally making a return to his favourite format. He has failed in the Test cricket in recent times but his form in ODI cricket was never in doubt. Kohli was highest run-scorer in ICC ODI World Cup 2023. He is expected to carry on the same legacy.
- Harry Brook– Hailed as the next rising star of England Cricket Team, Harry Brook has failed to make his mark in the ongoing tour of India. He was unlucky in the first ODI but is expected to comeback with a strong answer in the 2nd ODI.
IND vs ENG 2nd ODI Match Prediction- Who Will Win?
Team India is expected to win the match and therefore seal the series as well. England batters are not able to handle the spin of Indian bowlers and Barabati Stadium is expected to favour the spinners. This means that England is going to have a really tough time in the 2nd ODI.
