3rd ODI: India Will Need One Of Gill, Kohli Or Rohit To Get A Hundred, Says Broad
Sir Garfield Sobers: Former England pacer Stuart Broad believes India will require a monumental century from either skipper Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, or Rohit Sharma if they are to successfully chase down England's mammoth 387/3 in the series-deciding third ODI here at Lord’s on Sunday.
England have set India 388 to win the ODI decider at Lord's, thanks to Ben Duckett’s 141, Jacob Bethell’s 91, Joe Root’s unbeaten 48-ball 71 and Jos Buttler applying finishing touches with 41 not out off just 13 balls.
"It will be entertaining if India get anywhere near. They will need one of Gill, Kohli or Rohit to get a hundred but it is a belting hot day, a quick outfield and a decent batting pitch. Let's be honest, England's score looks over-par as India didn't bowl very well," said Broad in the mid-innings break.
