England captain Harry Brook won the toss and opted to bowl against India in the second ODI, which is taking place at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff. England are featuring with two changes. On the other hand, there was an injury scare for Shubman Gill and Gurnoor Brar, as the skipper and speedster left the field midway during the series opener are fit and included in the playing XI. However, India featured with one change as Ishan Kishan comes in place of KL Rahul because the wicketkeeper batter is unwell for the selection.

Captains at toss

Shubman Gill (India captain): We would have bowled first as well. Doing well and very happy. We had a perfect game, hopefully we will do it again today. We started well and it was great to see fast bowlers do well. Very good memories here. We have one change, KL is sick and Ishan comes in for him.

Harry Brook (England captain): We’re gonna have a bowl today. (Talks about the pitch) Yeah, nice even spread of grass. So hopefully we can get a little bit of seam movement and swing up front. (Anything you want to do differently here?) Just execute slightly better, I think. I’ve always said we’re never out of games and I thought we put up a really good fight last game. To take it that deep was an awesome effort from the guys and yeah, some more of that really. (Team changes) Josh Tongue and Liam Dawson come out for Saqib (Mahmood) and Gus Atkinson.
