India will now play England in the second ODI at the Barabati Stadium Cuttack on Sunday. India leads the series 1-0 after winning the first match in Nagpur by four wickets.
The Indian team appears to have performed well as a unit, barring a few initial hiccups in both batting and bowling innings. They curtailed the overall England tally and made the chase with an amazing margin of over 11 overs to spare. Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, and Axar Patel were present among a few important ones at the top scoring runs—87, 59, and 52.
On the contrary, England was as lost about scoring runs against Indian spinners as it had been during the T20I series. They now need to win this match in order to keep their hopes alive in the series. The second ODI will undoubtedly be an exciting contest where India will try to ensure the series, while England will fight to stay alive.

India vs. England Pitch Report:
The Cuttack track is thought to be beneficial for spinners and provides some bounce, which is beneficial for pacers, particularly after the ball is semi-new following the initial stints. Playing fast bowling against the fresh ball here is difficult. On this track, batters will need to exercise caution. But in white-ball cricket, batsmen have been receiving favorable decks lately.
