The third and final ODI between England and India at Lord's is set to be a series decider after England bounced back impressively in the second match at Cardiff. Chasing a target of 234, the hosts overcame early setbacks to secure a four-wicket victory, thanks largely to Joe Root's unbeaten 99, and he will be the most crucial pick as per our ENG vs IND Dream11 prediction today match.

Earlier, India were bowled out for 233 after Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer scored half-centuries, but the middle and lower order failed to build on their starts. The win helped England level the three-match series at 1-1, setting up a winner-takes-all clash at the iconic Lord's Cricket Ground.
In the build-up to the match, Rohit Sharma's future has also become a major talking point after reports suggested that the former Indian captain could announce his retirement following the series. However, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia has put an end to the speculation, stating that there has been no discussion regarding Rohit's retirement and confirming that Rohit Sharma remains an important part of India's ODI plans.
