Analysis
Having sealed the deal already, through an all-round performance by the batters and bowlers, England walk in confident in the 3rd ODI. England skipper Heather Knight, all-rounder Nat Sciver, and opener Tammy Beaumont have dominated the series so far and will aim to continue their brilliance in the 3rd ODI. Coming to the bowlers, Sophie Ecclestone, Kate Cross and Anya Shrubsole are the best picks given their current form.
India walk in the 3rd ODI having lost both the games in the series. The Mithali Raj-led side will aim to restore some pride by winning this game. Despite significant contributions from Mithali Raj, Shafali Verma amongst others, the Indian side has failed to win even a single game. The Indian top order alongside bowlers like Jhulan Goswami and Poonam Yadav have looked in good form in the series and will hope to make a match winning contribution for their team in this final ODI.
