​Cardiff gets its moment in the spotlight on Thursday and there’s plenty riding on it.India go into this second ODI with a 1-0 cushion after chasing down 259 at Edgbaston with something to spare. But the visitors will be wary of the fitness of their captain Shubman Gill, who limped off on 80 with cramp.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementRohit Sharma, at 39 and without the captaincy to lean on anymore, will know another failure invites awkward questions. England, meanwhile, are desperate to stop the rot – they’ve now lost 13 of their last 19 ODIs and need a big response from their top order if this series isn’t going to slip away early.Despite that 4-0 T20 hammering, this is a completely different contest, and India look the stronger side on paper. And the first match ODI win concurred that fact.There is serious array of talent in this ODI side when compared to the host.England will need Harry Brook, Joe Root and Jos Buttler to fire, but the format has been their Achilles heel of late with Edgbaston being their 13th defeat in 19 matches. Turning that around will take something special, and it’s hard to see it happening in Cardiff.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementIndia to win!
