Rohit Sharma-led India will host Jos Buttler's England in the 2nd ODI of the three-match series in Cuttack on Sunday (February 9). The Men in Blue won the series opener by a comfortable margin and a victory in the 2nd ODI will see them clinch the series with a game left to be played.
India received a big boost before the 2nd ODI as Virat Kohli was declared fit. The India legend missed the first game due to a knee issue. Virat's return could see Yashasvi Jaiswal losing his place in the playing XI.
