India are set to face England in the second ODI of their three-match series on Sunday. The hosts are riding high on confidence after clinching victory in the opening game and now hold a 1-0 lead. A win in the upcoming match would seal the series for them, marking yet another dominant home performance.
Meanwhile, England find themselves in a do-or-die scenario. Having suffered defeat in the first ODI, the visitors must secure a victory to keep their hopes alive in the series. A loss would mean a series defeat, adding to their recent struggles in limited-overs cricket. England will have to bring their A-game to challenge India and push the series into a decider.
