Barabati Stadium Pitch Report
The track of Cuttack is considered helpful usually good for the spinners and offers some bounce which helps the pacers well, especially once the ball gets semi-new after the first spells. It is not easy to play pace bowling against the new ball here. Batters will have to be careful on this track. However, in recent times, batters have been getting good decks in white-ball cricket.

IND vs ENG Probable Best Performers
Probable Best Batter: Shreyas Iyer
Shreyas Iyer who had been inducted into the playing XI in the first ODI, due to star batter Virat Kohli's exclusion displayed remarkable brilliance with the bat, scoring a 36-ball 59. His innings laced with nine boundaries and two sixes, helped the side to get in a comfortable position after a rough start. The Mumbai batter will be looking forward to this game and will be hoping to put in yet another impressive showing with the bat.
Probable Best Bowler: Ravindra Jadeja
The left-arm-spinner Ravindra Jadeja bowled brilliantly in the series opener as he picked up 3/26 in nine overs. Jadeja got rid of Joe Root, Sune Luus, Jacob Bethell, and Adil Rashid. The 36-year-old will look to make good use of the conditions and bowl another match-winning spell in the upcoming game.
