England take on India in the first ODI of a three-match series at Trent Bridge on Thursday, four days after losing the T20I series to the same opponents 2-1. England were boosted in the final game of the series though, with the return of all-rounder Ben Stokes after recovering from a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n

England\u2019s ODI team are much further ahead in their development than the T20I equivalent, despite many players featuring in both squads. With a big tournament just 12 months away, they\u2019re the No.1 team in the world in the 50 over format and they\u2019ve set numerous records since the debacle in Australia and New Zealand in 2015. Jason Roy hit the highest individual total by an Englishman at the MCG earlier this year, while Jonny Bairstow hit three successive ODI centuries earlier this summer. On top of that, the team set a new world record score of 480 the last time they played at Trent Bridge, beating their own record set at the same ground two years ago against Pakistan.<\/p>\n

India, their opponents for this three-match series, are the second-best team in the world according to the ICC rankings and they include some white-ball superstars in their ranks. No batsman is more dangerous in limited overs cricket than Virat Kohli, while former captain and wicketkeeper MS Dhoni is also sensational in the shorter formats of the game. Their squad is packed full of IPL experience and they\u2019ll be a real test for this England team in home conditions.<\/p>\n

If this match follows anything like some of the recent limited over games at Trent Bridge, then expect lots of runs to be scored and plenty of sixes hit. England will be looking to get one over this India team and I think they\u2019ll do it, but these two teams are very evenly matched.<\/p>\n
