England won the toss and elected to bat first in the opening ODI against India at Edgbaston, Birmingham, with India receiving a major boost as both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli returned to the playing XI alongside Jasprit Bumrah.
The experienced trio missed the recent T20I series, and their comeback adds much-needed stability as India begin their preparations for the 2027 ODI World Cup.
Captain Shubman Gill will be hoping his side can bounce back after a disappointing T20I campaign, while Rohit and Gill are expected to provide a solid platform at the top before Kohli anchors the middle order.
