India seeks a 3-0 ODI series sweep against England, with key performances from Rohit Sharma and Jos Buttler.

India is on the verge of completing a 3-0 whitewash against England in the third ODI at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. After winning the toss for the third consecutive time, England`s Jos Buttler opted to bowl first. India`s innings began with a setback as Rohit Sharma fell early to Mark Wood, caught by Phil Salt for just 1 run.

However, Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli steadied the innings with significant contributions, both scoring fifties. The pitch, known for its slow nature favoring spin, has recently shown quicker surfaces, leading to higher scoring rates. In the previous two ODIs, India secured victories in Nagpur and Cuttack, with Rohit Sharma`s explosive 119 off 90 balls in the second ODI being a standout performance.

As both teams prepare for the ICC Champions Trophy, this match holds great significance for England, who are looking to avoid a whitewash after a disappointing tour, having lost six out of seven matches so far. The playing XIs feature key players, including India`s captain Rohit Sharma and England`s captain Jos Buttler, both eager to make their mark in this final encounter.
