India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: IND race ahead as Axar ...

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Kevin Pietersen, Ravi Shastri laying into England's preparations

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Shastri and Pietersen saying that England batters have not had any net sessions throughout this series, except for Joe Root. What is for certain is that they did skip nets to enjoy a few rounds of golf in Bhubaneshwar before being thrashed out of the park in Cuttack. England's preparations for the Champions Trophy has to be just the most bizarre any team has had since international cricket became a game for professionals surely.

England 156/5 in 26 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: OUT! Rana gets Buttler as soon as he returns

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Harshit Rana brought back for the 25th over and he sends back Jos Buttler first ball. Rana starts with a back of a length delivery, quite far wide outside off stump. Thick inside edge and the ball crashes on to the stumps. This match is dwindling away quite quickly now for England.

Buttler b Harshit Rana 6 (9)

England 154/5 in 24.1 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Brook, Buttler trying to get England back on track

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: England's required run rate has now slipped above their current rate. Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav are wreaking havoc here. Brook manages to get a boundary off the second ball of the 23rd from Axar but it has been slim pickings otherwise.

Brook on 11 off 20, Buttler on two off five.

England 143/4 in 23 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Virat Kohli is off the ground

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Harry Brook had replaced Banton and he had hit the third ball of the 20th from Kuldeep to short extra cover where Kohli dived to his right and stopped the ball. He seems to have hurt his hands after that though and he has been off the field since with Ravindra Jadeja replacing him.

Just 3 runs off the 22nd over by Kuldeep. Brook on seven off 14, Buttler on two off five. The squeeze is on.

England 139/4 in 22 overs, need 218 to win off 28 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: GONE! IT'S JOE ROOT!

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: AND IT'S AXAR PATEL! India are firmly in front now. One brings two for India as Axar gets the great man a couple of overs after Kuldeep sends back Banton. Full and angling in from Axar, Root goes all the way forward and gets too close to the pitch of the ball. It spins in, takes his inside edge and the stumps. That is huge.

Root b Axar 24 (29)

England 134/4 in 20.2 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: OUT! Wicket against the run of play, Kuldeep gets Banton!

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: And moreover, Banton absolutely burns a review for nothing as he walks off. Kuldeep ends the 18th over with a flighted wrong'un. It pitches somewhere around middle and draws Banton forward for a defence, then spins sharply away from him. Rahul juggles the ball once and completes the catch. Banton reviews and, well, there was an edge on it. The bat was nowhere near the pads and did not strike the ground. Surely, Banton felt that Nick and so why in the world did he think it was prudent to waste a review? Only he knows. Wonder if he will also get a pat on his back in the dressing room for that brave, brave, oh so brave review.

Banton c Rahul b Kuldeep Yadav 38 (41)

England 126/3 in 18 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: SIX! Tom Banton with a beauty off Axar Patel

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Feast your eyes on this one whenever you manage to get a highlight package of this match. Second ball of the 17th from Axar us fullish and going into the stumps. Banton unfurls a reverse sweep and connects so sweetly that it goes all the way over backward point for a six. Single fourth ball and a single for Root off the last.

Banton on 37 off 38, Root on 18 off 21.

England 123/2 in 17 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: England need 242 to win from 34 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Root brings out an exquisite reverse-sweep fifth ball of the 16th by Kuldeep and sends past the point fielder. There were five dot balls before that with Root finding the fielder every time. And so he finds the runs in this manner.

Root on 17 off 19, Banton on 30 off 34.

England 115/2 in 16 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: 15 overs done and England go past 100

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: India would know this has thus far been a very good chase. Moreover, Axar Patel missed a golden opportunity to run out Banton off the last ball of the 13th by Hardik. It was horrible mix-up with Banton wandering down the track after send the ball straight to Axar at gully. Banton is nowhere in the frame when Axar has the ball in his hands, he starts running towards the stumps but sees late that Banton is actually very close to getting back in the crease. Axar ends up throwing the ball darts style at his stumps, misses the throw from about five yards. Everyone's laughing around the ground, except Rohit maybe. Banton then gets a four off the fifth ball of the 15th over in Pandya's next with a wonderful cover drive.

Banton on 30 off 34 balls, Root on 11 off 13.

England 109/2 in 15 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Root and Banton looking to steady the ship for England

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Five runs off Pandya's second over in the 11th and then four off Axar in the next. Banon has got to 18 in 23 balls and Root is on seven off six. Boundaries haven't come as frequently as they were in the first six overs but England's ruun rate continues to be in front of the required rate.

England 93/2 in 12 overs, need 264 to win from 228 balls

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Axar starts with a maiden!

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Banton pinned to the crease throughout that over, what a start that is for Axar. He finds the point fielder first two balls, then the cover fielder next three balls. The last ball is hit back to Axar. An excellent way for India to end the first powerplay.

Hardik Pandya to now bowl the 11th over.

England 84/2 after 10 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Axar Patel into the attack now

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: No Ravindra Jadeja today and so Axar Patel comes in the 10th over. Joe Root started by caressing the first ball he faced through deep third man for four. He tries another late cut next ball but is cramped for room. Joe Root will surely try to get a big one, the question really is whether his teammates will actually care to stick around with him and give this target a chase or continue with their vibes-based batting.

England 84/2 in 9 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: OUT! Salt throws it away again

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: A slow bouncer, Salt rocks back and gives point catching practice. Going by what Duckett said yesterday, Salt would probably get a pat on the back for trying that brave, brave, oh so brave shot instead of trying to get a big score and maybe try to help England win a match.

Salt c Axar b Arshdeep Singh 23 (21)

England 80/2 in 8.4 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: 12 runs off the 8th! Tom Banton announcing his arrival

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Well England are looking to maintain the pace that Duckett set here. Sundar continues for the eighth over, Banton, facing the sixth ball of his innings, goes for a switch hit second ball of that over and sends it over deep point for a six. Banton then defends the third ball solidly and then skips down the track for a huge haymaker. Edge and the ball goes past Rahul and deep third for a four. Two singles off the last two balls.

Bangon on 12 off nine, Salt on 17 off 17.

England 73/1 in 8 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: OUT! The Duckett blitz ends

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Well this was coming but surely Duckett has done much more than what was expected of him here. Arshdeep Singh with the breakthrough for India. It was a knuckle ball fro Arshdeep, pace taken off. Duckett swipes across the line and miscues the shot. It goes high up in the air and Rohit takes the catch at mid-off. He points to his temple after doing that, wonder if he gave his pacers an earful before this over and asked them to take the pace off.

Duckett c Rohit b Arshdeep Singh 34 (22)

England 60/1 in 6.2 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: FOUR CONSECUTIVE FOURS! Duckett standing and delivering

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: That's 16 runs off the fifth over by Arshdeep. Well England's options may be limited but they are doing much more with them than what Rohit Sharma would've liked. Duckett takes a swipe at the first ball off side, doesn't connect cleanly and doesn't even think of taking a single. The second is nicely in the slot by Arshdeep, Duckett creams it over long-on for four. The third is slightly wide and Duckett rocks back to send it through cover for another four. The fourth is short, Duckett pulls it to square leg for the third boundary and the fourth is short again, Duckett pulls again in front of square for the fourth four.

Duckett is on 33 off 18 at the end of that over, Salt on nine off 12. Washington Sundar to bowl the first over of spin in the sixth over. No, this is not a T20

England 48/0 in 5 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: 14 runs off the 4th! Boundaries the only way to go for England

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Back to back fours by Duckett off Rana first two balls of that over. And then the batters run just the third single of this innings. Rana goes a bit too short and wide outside off fifth ball, it is called wide. He reloads and this time, Salt slaps it through midwicket for a boundary.

Salt on nine off 12 at the end of that over, Duckett on 17 off 12 balls.

England 32/0 in 4 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: A boundary at last for Salt

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Arshdeep continues in the third over, the second ball takes a deflection off Salt's pads and goes behind for four byes. Salt then cracks the last ball through midwicket for four. Just two singles run in the first three overs.

England 18/0 in 3 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Duckett with the first boundary of the innings

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: He continues to be quite ginger, shots off the front foot seem to be especially an issue and so we can expect Duckett to try and score as many runs through boundaries as possible. Harshit Rana bowling the second over, Salt runs a bye first ball and Duckett flicks the fourth ball of the off stump. The fourth is then hit through midwicket for another four. He is on eight off nine balls at the end of that over, Salt on one off three.

KL Rahul was in some strife off the first ball of the over, taking the ball flush on the kneed as it beat the top of his pads.

England 10/0 in 2 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Just one run in the first over

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Salt takes a single off the second ball of that over and then Duckett pinned to the crease. He was quite ginger coming forward to defend the first ball he faced, that injury surely has taken a toll here. So Duckett yet to get off the mark after four balls and Salt on one off two.

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Will dew play a role?

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Well Rohit Sharma had said that dew has played a bit of hide and seek throughout this series at the toss. Now 357 is a huge target to chase regardless of the conditions but Rohit would be hoping that dew doesn't make a first-time appearance in this series today.

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Ben Duckett does walk out to open...

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Ben Duckett was limping, seemingly having a problem with his groin for much of the second half of the Indian innings. However, here he is, opening the innings with Phil Salt. Arshdeep Singh to bowl the first over. England need big scores from their top order here./

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Adil Rashid finishes with figures of 4/64

India vs. England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: He has a word with the broadacsters: “Nice to have contributed. (On how he varies his pace) Lots of practice but also about identifying what you are as a leg spinner. Once you get the ball in the right area with revs and drift in, it makes it difficult. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Pitch looks a bit on the slower side. 356... we got to see how we go out and play. Obviously we will go in with the mindset to chase it down.”

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: India 356 all out in 50 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: We will have to wait and see if Arshdeep Singh is stumped or run out off the last ball. Even though India have scored over 350, it is fair to say that England put a lid on this innings towards the end.

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: OUT! Rana's cameo cut short

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: A surprisingly handy cameo from Harshit Rana brought to an end by Atkinson with his last ball of the match.

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: GONE! Rahul is the next man to fall

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Yorker from Mahmood and Rahul falls. The batter tries to flick it and ends up taking it full on the back pad. Mahmood appeals and the umpire gives it. Rahul reviews it. There is no inside edge and it is three reds on ball-tracking.

Rahul lbw b Mahmood 40 (29)

India 334/7 in 46.4 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Into the last four overs

India vs. England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: A handy knock thus far from KL Rahul. Root continues for the 46th over, gives the second ball a bit of air across off stump. Rahul sends it straight down the ground for a six. Rahul on 34 off 26 balls, Washington Sundar at the other end on six off six.

India 326/6 in 46 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: OUT! That's it for Axar Patel

India vs. England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Root loops the fifth ball of the 44th over up, challenging Axar Patel to reach out and hit it. It is the last 10 overs and so Axar does exactly that, holes out at long-off.

Axar Patel c Banton b Root 13 (12)

India 307/6 in 43.5 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Into the last 7 overs now

India vs. England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: India have crossed 300 with seven overs to go and even then, it is fair to say that they have tailed off significantly in the last 4-5 overs. Something that has happened in the last two matches as well which really might be something India need to take a look at going into the Champions Trophy. KL Rahul has got some valuable time in the middle today, though. He has scored 19 in 17 balls, Axar on 11 off nine.

India 302/5 in 43 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: OUT! 6, 6 AND GONE FOR PANDYA!

India vs. England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: That's wicket No.4 for Rashid and that is an absolutely spectacular delivery! It might just be the ball of the year already, certainly ODIs it has to be. Fourth ball of the 41st was slightly wide outside off, Rashid challenged Pandya to go for it and he did so with aplomb, blasting it over long on for six. Pandya stepped out next ball again and sent the fifth ball over long off for another six. Then no rush of blood to the head from Pandya, he simply comes forward to defend, having done what he wanted in that over. Rashid sent it in at a good length, it turns sharply past the outside edge of Pandya's straight bat hits the top of off. That is virtuoso stuff from Rashid. All any batter could do against something like that is nod in appreciation and walk off with the bat tucked in his armpit.

Pandya b Rashid 17 (9)

India 289/5 in 41 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: OUT! Iyer is Rashid's next victim

India vs. England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Adil Rashid gets another well-set batter. He has been head and shoulders and waist above all of his teammates in this series and on this tour. Quick leggie down the leg side which doesn't turn as much as Iyer expected. He gets a feather edge on it and Salt takes a very good catch down the leg side.

Iyer c Salt b Rashid 78 (64)

India 259/4 in 38.2 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Shreyas Iyer moving into the 70s now

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Livingstone returns for the 37th over, Iyer takes two off the first ball. Then a horrible thigh-high full toss from Livingstone, Iyer accepts the gift with glee and smashes it over sqauare leg for a six. Three singles after that.

Iyer on 69 off 58 balls, Rahul on three off five.

India 246/3 in 37 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: OUT! Gill goes, another huge strike from Rashid

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Gill tries a big swipe across the line and the ball just goes right through him and hits the stumps. Iyer took a single off the second ball and then Rashid fires the third in full. Too full for a swipe, which Gill seemed to understand late, doesn't quite go through with it despite shaping up for it and ends up in a bit of a mess. A soft end to an extraordinary innings, he walks off to a standing ovation from the crowd in Ahmedabad.

KL Rahul walks in to replace him. The Indian wicketkeeper has come under some pressure off late.

Gill b Rashid 112 (102)

India 226/2 in 34.3 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Fifty for Shreyas Iyer in 43 balls

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Third Indian to go past fifty today which is always a sign of a team dominating a match. Iyer tucks the first ball from Wood in the 34th over off his hip for a single to get to the mark. This partnership has also reached 100 now.

Indai 222/2 in 33.1 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Gill pumps Rashid down the ground for six!

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Rashid comes in for the 33rd, Gill takes a single by sending the first ball through cover. Iyer then sends the fifth ball to cover as well for a single and then Gill skips down the track to send the last ball over long off for a six.

Gill moves to 111 off 99, Iyer on 49 off 42.

India 221/2 in 33 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: SHUBMAN GILL BRINGS UP HIS 7TH ODI TON WITH A FOUR!

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: 87, 60 and now 102 not out. Shubman Gill is in some purple patch right on time for India - just before the Champions Trophy. Wood goes full on Gill's pads second ball of the 32nd over, the batter clips it with elan through deep midwicket for a four. He takes off his helmet and thanks the considerable crowd at this gigantic stadium, where he now has a century in every format in addition to three in the IPL. Wowza!

India 206/2 in 31.2 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: 200 up for India

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: And it looks like Iyer might beat Gill to a landmark here. He has raced to 43 in 36 balls, having taken most of the strike for the past two overs. Gill on 98 off 93 though, so he might just get there off the first ball of the 32nd over, for which Mark Wood returns.

India 202/2 in 31 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Gill into the 90s…

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Saqib Mahmood comes in for the 28th over, bowls quite brilliantly to concede just four singles off five balls. Then he bowls a shortish one that sits up nicely for Iyer who deposits it over long on for four with disdain.

Iyer has moved to 31 off 24, Gill at the other end on 95 off 87.

India 187/2 in 28 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: 25 overs done, India 161/2

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Shubman Gill on 85 off 78 balls, Shreyas Iyer on 15 off as many. This partnership has now reached 41 in 36 balls. India are looking very good indeed today. They are going at a run rate of 6.44 and Gill especially is looking completely unflappable. He is going at a strike rate of over 100 and yet there hasn't been a single properly hear-in-mouth moment in his innings thus far

India 161/2 in 25 overs

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Iyer tonks Atkinson down the ground!

India vs England LIVE SCORE, 3rd ODI: Shreyas Iyer getting into the groove, India can get something huge here if they keep this up. Last ball of the 24th from Atkinson is slightly full. Iyer stretches his arms and sends it over wide long off for a four.

Shreyas Iyer on 14 off 14, Shubman Gill on 80 off 73 balls.

India 155/2 in 24 overs
