Ben Duckett did well to work around his groin injury by dealing in boundaries and getting England off to a big start as they chase a mammoth target of 357. Duckett was hobbling throughout his short stay in the crease but he creamed 34 runs in 22 balls before falling to Arshdeep Singh. England’s opening partnership thus raced to 60 runs in just six overs.

Shubman Gill fell after scoring a masterful 112 off 102 balls after Shreyas Iyer was dismissed on 78 off 64 balls. Both players fell to the irresistible Adil Rashid, who had also dismissed Virat Kohli earlier on 52 off 55. Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul are yet to truly fire in the series and they now potentially have the last 10 overs to get some runs under their belt and give India a big finish. Rahul made 40 in 29 balls and Harshit Rana played a useful cameo to take India to a score of 356.

Gill brought up his seventh ODI century with a four and got to the mark in just 95 balls. The Indian vice-captain has now scored a century in every format of the game in Ahmedabad. Gill has crossed fifty for the third consecutive time in the series. Shreyas Iyer has also motored along at the other end, thus not allowing England any way in after they dismissed Virat Kohli shortly after the latter scored his 100th ODI half-century.
