Rohit Sharma Eyes Big Knock as India Chases Series Win at Lord's
The third ODI is an important match for former India captain Rohit Sharma, who has come under pressure after two low scores in the series. The 39-year-old opener has managed only 37 runs in the first two matches and will look to return to form in the series decider.
According to The Indian Express, the Lord's ODI could be Rohit's final international match. The veteran has already retired from Test cricket and T20Is. He looks to silence the speculation with a strong performance.
Virat Kohli, meanwhile, returned to form after recovering from a hamstring injury. After a low score in the first ODI at Edgbaston, he bounced back with a half-century in Cardiff. India will also aim to continue their unbeaten run in the bilateral ODI series against England since 2018.
