With big names like Joe Root, Chris Woakes and Jofra Archer not participating in the series, the visitors indeed have some big boots to fill. However, there’s still no shortage of match-winners in the England line-up. Dashers like Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler are proven stars of his format, whereas Sam Billings, the likely replacement of Root, has an excellent opportunity to make a mark. The bowling line-up, however, doesn’t look that potent in the absence of Woakes and Archer. Mark Wood will have the onus to lead the pace attack while Adil Rashid will handle the mantle in the spin department. India vs England 1st ODI 2021, Rain Forecast & Weather Report From Pune: Check Pitch Report of Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium.

Not to forget, this series is a part of the ICC Cricket World Cup Super League with 30 points up for grabs. England are currently third in the team standings with three wins in six games, whereas the Men in Blue are reeling at 10th place, having lost their previous ODI series against Australia by 2-1.
