Birmingham: After India’s unbeaten run at the ICC World Cup 2019 was halted by hosts England on Sunday (June 30), there were lot of questions about India’s batting in the first 10 overs and the final six. MS Dhoni and Kedar Jadhav were criticised for not showing intent to go for big shots in the final six overs while chasing 338. In the post-match press conference, Rohit Sharma, who hit a century, explained why India batted like that and Dhoni, Jadhav in particular. Some called Dhoni-Jadhav’s batting as “bizarre”.

Both MS Dhoni and Kedar Jadhav failed to show intent. They did not go for big hits and India’s lone six of the innings came from Dhoni in the final over when India were out of the World Cup 2019 game against England. Dhoni-Jadhav partnership faced 31 balls (seven dot balls, 20 singles, three fours and one six)

'Losing wickets put you under pressure and we lost KL (Rahul) at the start. They bowled well so it is only natural the guys who are in form bat as long as possible,' Rohit Sharma said after India lost to England at the ICC World Cup 2019

India captain Virat Kohli consulted MS Dhoni, who is always accurate with the Decision Review System (DRS). As the 15-second timer ticked by, Kohli went with Dhoni’s decision and opted not to review

England, now on 10 points, will need to beat New Zealand in their last game to qualify for the World Cup 2019 semi-finals while India (11 points from 7 games) will need to win at least one of their remaining two games — against Bangladesh and Sri Lanka — to seal the last four spot

The sell-out fixture will see players from both the world’s top ranked one-day sides in special #OneDay4Children branded kit, celebrities and legends of the game participating in unique activations, and fundraising both in stadium and across the live broadcast, while over 24,000 spectators join in the action at Edgbaston

Birmingham: India will aim to maintain their unbeaten run as they face the under-pressure England at the ICC World Cup 2019 today (June 30). It is a must-win game for England as their semi-final hopes hinge on this contest in Birmingham. Virat Kohli and his men will be sporting new jerseys (orange) for this game at Edgbaston. Here is India’s likely playing 11.

With an unbeaten record in six encounters so far, Virat Kohli's men are all but through to the semi-finals with 11 points but a win against England will further tighten their grip at the top and in the process oust World's No. 1 ODI team from the ICC World Cup 2019

Asked about his assessment of Vijay Shankar, Virat Kohli said, 'It's a strange one because he had a decent game against Pakistan. I think against Afghanistan on that pitch he looked really assured. Shot selection, again, we discussed with him for that game. Last game, again, he came out, he looked really good, and he got a beautiful ball from Kemar Roach'

Virat Kohli loved the designed and gave it an eight out of 10.

'The ODI and Away Kit (for ICC World Cup 2019) designs launched this year are inspired by the young new generation of India and the fearless spirit of the national teams,' Nike said in a statement
