3-Match ODI Series Results
First ODI @ Trent Bridge, Nottingham Thursday July 12,2018
Scorecard
England 268/10 in 49.5 Overs
India 269/2 in 40.1 Overs
Match Result - India won by 8 wickets
MOM - Kuldeep Yada(India)for his 6/25(10 Overs)
India, buoyed after clinching the three-match T20 International series, take on England in the first ODI on Thursday July 12,2018 at Trent Bridge, Nottingham in what promises to be a mouthwatering batting contest between the two top-ranked teams in the 50 overs format. England, currently number 1 in ICC ODI rankings, have had a great run in the ODIs in the last few years and are likely to give a tough fight to Virat Kohli's team, which occupies the second spot in the ODI rankings, at home.
With the ODI World Cup scheduled in England in 2019, both teams are well aware that the series gives them not only a change to finetune their preparations but also gauge the opposition. England are coming into the ODIs after routing the once-mighty Australia 5-0 at home and also notching up a world record score of 481 in the third match at Trent Bridge.
England,the hosts have a devastating batting lineup in Jason Roym Jonny Bairstow, Alex Hales, Jos Buttler and Eoin Morgan, which can decimate any attack. The weak link is their bowling and with hitman Rohit Sharma, Kohli, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Shikhar Dhawan, KL Rahul, Dinesh Karthik and Suresh Raina in their ranks, India have a batting card which can be equally dominating.
While pace and swing are unlikely to trouble the English batsmen too much, India spinners like Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chaha will prove to be tough opponents.
Since the ICC World Cup 2015, England have won 46 ODIs and lost 19 while India have a 39-19 win-loss record during the same period. If India manage to will all the three ODIs, then they will replace England at the top of ICC rankings in the 50-over format.
Squads
England: Eoin Morgan (C), Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Jos Buttler (WK), Moeen Ali, Joe Root, Jake Ball, Tom Curran, Alex Hales, Liam Plunkett, Ben Stokes, Adil Rashid, David Willey, Mark Wood
India: Virat Kohli (C), Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (WK), Dinesh Karthik, Suresh Raina, Hardik Pandya, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Shreyas Iyer, Siddarth Kaul, Axar Patel, Umesh Yadav, Shardul Thakur, Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni all set to another feather to his cap as he is
on his way to become the 12th cricketer in ODI history to score 10,000
runs.
MS Dhoni is just 33 runs short of achieving this incredible feat. Dhoni will have a chance to join the elite club when India take on England in the 3-Match ODI series starting on July 12 at Trent Bridge in Nottingham. If Dhoni manages to score those runs, he will be joining batting legends Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and Sourav Ganguly in the list. He will become fourth Indian and 12th overall to achieve the milestone.

He will become fourth Indian and 12th overall to achieve the milestone.
Sachin Tendulkar is
on top of the list with 18426 runs in ODIs. He is followed by Sri
Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara (14234), Australia's Ricky Ponting (13704). Sri
Lankans Sanath Jayasuriya (13430) and Mahela Jayawardene (12650) are
followed by Pakistan's Inzamam-ul Haq (11739), South Africa's Jacques
Kallis (11579), Ganguly (11363), Dravid (10889), West Indian Brian Lara
(10405) and Sri Lanka's Tillakaratne Dilshan (10290) in the list.
M S Dhoni will also become only the second wicketkeeper-batsman to touch the 10000-run mark. Sangakkara was the first designated wicketkeeper-batsman to achieve the milestone.
This is not the only record Dhoni has achieved in his eminent career.
In ODIs, Dhoni has taken 297 catches and is fourth in all-time list. He is behind Australia's Adam Gilchrist (417), South Africa's Mark Boucher (402) and Sangakkara (383 catches).
But the 2011 World Cup winning captain dominates the stumping records in ODIs. Dhoni has inflicted 107 stumpings in his 318-ODI career. Sangakkara is second in the list with 99 stumpings.
Overall (Test, ODIs and T20Is,), Dhoni is the third highest for most wicket-keeping dismissals - 785. South Africa's Mark Boucher is on top of the list with 998 dismissals across all formats and he is followed by Australia's Adam Gilchrist who has 905 dismissals to his name.
Under Dhoni's captaincy, India lifted the 50-over World Cup in 2011 and the World Twenty20 in 2007. Dhoni also led India to the ICC Champions Trophy in 2013 in England.

Chinaman Kuldeep Yadav bamboozled England batsmen with a mesmerizing spell before Rohit Sharma's sublime century saw India cruise to a eight-wicket victory in the first ODI on Thursday.
Kuldeep's career-best figures of 6 /25(10 Overs)allowed England to only score a modest 268 on good batting conditions.
The chase was a stroll in the park for as the runs were knocked off in only 40.1 overs courtesy Rohit's (137 no off 114 balls). It was the opener's 18th ODI hundred, which was beautifully complemented by skipper Virat Kohli (75, 82 balls) as he struck his first 50 plus score of the tour. The Kohli-Rohit duo added 177 runs in 25.1 overs to seal the issue.
Once Kohli opted to field, the English script unfolded very much on similar lines with the T20 series, where things went downhill as soon as Kuldeep was introduced into the attack.
None of the England batsmen were able to read him and a testimony to that was his brilliant figures of 10-0-25-6, the best ever by any chinaman bowler in the history of ODIs.
He bowled an astounding 38 dot balls and not once was he hit for a boundary. This was Kuldeep's first five-for in ODIs after he had recently achieved the same feat in T20Is during the Manchester encounter.
The manner in which Kuldeep set up the match, there was no scoreboard pressure on the Indian batting line-up unlike the last ODI series, where England trampled Australia under a mountain of runs.
Rohit, who always takes time to get off the blocks and then accelerate, hit 15 fours and four sixes. He completed his century with an effortless hit down the ground off leg-spinner Adil Rashid. As if to celebrate the hundred, he also hit a one-handed six off Moeen Ali.
Kohli on his part hit eight boundaries and was ready to play the second fiddle during his 47th half century in ODI cricket.
Earlier, Jos Buttler (53 off 51 balls) looked the most comfortable while Ben Stokes (50 off 103 balls) played a painstaking knock as Kuldeep blew away the top order after a good start.
Together, they added 83 for the fifth wicket showing signs of recovery but he dismissed the two set batsmen in quick succession to bring about the home team's downfall.
Moeen Ali (24) and Adil Rashid (22) added a few quick runs ro help England cross the 250-run mark before they were all out in the final over with a delivery left.
That Kuldeep was singularly responsible for England's batting collapse was evident more so because the next best figures were 2 for 70 in 9.5 overs by Umesh Yadav.
Even Kuldeep's spin twin Yuzvendra Chahal (1/51 in 10 overs) was not exactly economical.
The match started with both Jason Roy (38) and Jonny Bairstow (38) launching into Yadav and debutant Siddarth Kaul (0/62 in 10 overs) with a flurry of boundaries.
They added 73 for the opening stand before a wrong execution of reverse sweep brought about Roy's downfall.
Kuldeep was not afraid to flight the ball and dipped viciously having the batsmen in two minds. Some played with the turn and some tried against the turn -- both with dismal outcomes.
At the start of the 13th over, Joe Root (3) was completely befuddled by a ripping leg break and was trapped lbw. Four balls later, Bairstow was trapped lbw via DRS, failing to read the googly.
England had collapsed to 82 for 3, losing three wickets for nine runs in the space of 16 balls. Soon, it became 105-4 as Chahal got into the mix of things with Eoin Morgan (19) caught at cover.
This brought Stokes and Buttler together at the crease, and they put on 93 runs for the fifth wicket. Losing too many wickets meant that they had to take time and rebuild the innings, with Stokes in particular scoring at a very low strike-rate.
Buttler though continued his rich vein of form and smacked his 18th ODI half-century off 45 balls. In doing so, he put on 50 off 59 balls with Stokes, yet it was only a part-recovery for England.
Throughout his innings, Buttler batted with most ease against both pace and spin, and hit five boundaries in all. It appeared as if he was preparing for an assault in the death overs, but Kuldeep sucked out any momentum that he had built.
