India vs England Live Score Updates, World Cup 2023: Virat Kohli fell for a nine-ball duck as England’s fast bowlers struck early blows in their must-win World Cup clash.
Left-arm quick David Willey claimed the prized scalp after Kohli played a loose shot to be caught at mid-off by Ben Stokes and walked off to stunned silence at Lucknow’s Ekana Stadium.
Chris Woakes bowled opener Shubman Gill for nine in the fourth over after England, who sit bottom of the 10-team table, elected to bowl in their bid for victory and keep their slim hopes alive of making the semi-finals.
Woakes got one more to send Shreyas Iyer (four) back to the pavilion for four as India slipped to 40-3 in 12 overs.
Rohit Sharma led India will bat first at the Ekana cricket stadium in Lucknow. The IND vs ENG encounter will see no changes in the playing XI from both sides. The last time these two teams met for an ICC ODI World Cup match in India, the game ended in a draw.
Rohit Sharma-led India will be buoyed by the fact that the hosts are the only team in the tournament without a defeat so far. The Indians would be particularly pleased with a win over New Zealand in the last game, who have been a thorn in the side of the Men in Blue in recent ICC events.
Against the Black Caps, India’s bowling and batting were put to the test and came out on top. India’s bowling line-up featuring stars like Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah managed to take the Kiwis from 205/4 at one stage to 273 all out in 50 overs. Similarly, in the batting department, despite losing a couple of quick wickets after a solid opening partnership, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja’s valiant efforts enabled India to chase down the total with ease.
England have won just one of their last five matches in the tournament. The only team they have beaten is Bangladesh (by 137 runs). They lost to New Zealand (by 9 wickets), Afghanistan (by 69 runs), South Africa (by 229 runs) and Sri Lanka (by 8 wickets). Facing the best team in the tournament at this stage won’t make things easy for England.

India vs England Live: Speaking at the pre-match press conference, Trescothick said, “I think playing against India in a World Cup in their own country is that is a special part of the game you know you get these opportunities that come around – you know there will be a big crowd, there will be a wonderful occasion. We are looking forward to that chance. I think there is nothing more that we can offer apart from going out and playing that performance. And then hopefully you come out on top at the end of it,” said the coach.
“It is exciting. I think having been where we have been and coming now into this game, the buzz of what it will be, you know, building up for the game and then into the game tomorrow will be good. So, really excited about it,” Trescothick added.
India vs England: Should IND include Ashwin in Playing XI? Akash Chopra answers
India vs England Live: While speaking on his YouTube channel, Chopra shared his views on if Ashwin should be considered in India’s playing XI. He was quoted by Sportskeeda as saying, “When you see England in front of you, you say let’s play an off-spinner. When you see the Lucknow ground, you say it’s such a big ground, so let’s play an off-spinner. Then you think the ball was turning a lot in the IPL, so let’s play an off-spinner but this is not the wicket that was there in the IPL.”
“This is not the black-soil pitch that was there in the IPL. It is now a red-soil pitch that has bounce and pace. Dew also comes in later. You have to keep in mind that if you get to field second, you will have three spinners, and the ball will get wet. So you might end up playing into the hands of the opposition.” the former Indian opener added.
India vs England Live: KL Rahul says toss not in captain or team’s control
India vs England Live: While speaking about the importance of toss, KL Rahul said, “A little bit. I mean, not really gone too much into it. I know few, I think in one game we did lose a toss and ended up bowling first as well. So, tossing is not something that the captain or the team can control. So whatever opportunities we’ve gotten we’ve done well but again it will be a great it will be a good opportunity if we get to bat first before the next stage and in the next four games if we can get to bat first it’ll be a good challenge for us to just see how to pace the innings and it’s been some time since we’ve batted first, so it will be useful for the team,”
India vs England Live: Virat Kohli praises Mark Wood, Adil Rashid

India vs England Live: KL Rahul opens up about injury struggles
India vs England Live: Indian wicketkeeper batter KL Rahul opened up about the injury he faced while playing at an IPL match at the Ekana cricket stadium. He said, “I can’t say that it is not in my mind. Yesterday when I came to the ground, my last memory of this ground was – falling down and injuring myself. Hopefully, I can put that aside and I can make some better and happier memories to forget all of that,”
Rahul added, “Yes, I am a little sad about that, but the injury that I had, kept me out of the game for 4-5 months. That was a tough time. Whoever has an injury, if you ask anyone – they undergo surgery and to come back, it takes a lot of hard work, and a lot of patience and you have to go through that which is not very easy. In cricket, whatever ups and downs happen, sometimes you score 100, sometimes you don’t, that success or failure you can handle but this painful time that is there, doing physio and coming back into cricket. That was tough,”
India vs England Live: ENG assistant coach Marcus Trescothick says ‘we are feeling the heat’
India vs England Live: Speaking before the crucial clash against India, Trescothick said, “Of course, I think sitting on the sidelines, seeing the performances have not been quite right. We have just not been matching up to the levels we expect. It is disappointing, of course it is. We are all feeling it. We are all feeling the heat and stuff. But what can you do? We prepared the same, we have done things very similar to what you would expect. Every practice we go through we are coming out the other side thinking we are in a good place and feeling quite right. It has just not quite worked then when we go into the games and get that right. So, it is always challenging for everybody, not just the coaches watching.”

However, India wicketkeeper-batsman KL Rahul has now confirmed that Hardik will not play against England on Sunday and Surya is likely to retain his place in the Indian XI.
In a pre-match press conference ahead of the match on Sunday, KL Rahul said, “Hardik has also been a very important member of the team and he has been there and he does a very important role for the team. So not having him is also a bit of a miss for the team. But it’s unfortunate what happened. And yeah, we also at some point have to look at that and the present is that he is not available for this game.
“Surya will probably get his chance and we know what Surya can do. So, our confidence is in Surya till Hardik comes back.” Rahul added
