India vs England, IND vs ENG 3rd ODI Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report And Ahmedabad Weather Forecast: India and England face off in the final ODI of their three-match series at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday in a game that is a dead rubber on paper, but will generate plenty of interest nonetheless.

In other news, India will be hoping that star batter Virat Kohli hits form in the final ODI before the ICC Champions Trophy. He is 89 runs short of becoming only the third batter in history to score 14,000 runs in the format.

India vs England 3rd ODI Pitch Report
Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium is known for offering a balanced pitch. The 22-yard strip should provide assistance to both the batters and bowlers.
Traditionally, the surface starts with good bounce and carry, conditions which favour fast bowlers in the initial overs. But then as the game ages, the pitch at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium tends to settle down. This makes batting at the ground easier, especially under lights. The pitch at Narendra Modi Stadium is expected to be good for batting, with some assistance for pacers early on. Spinners will be crucial in the middle overs, and a first-innings score of 270+ will be competitive.
