Jos Buttler and his boys did not have a very well ICC World Cup 2023 campaign and are at the bottom of the team rankings list. They have played five matches and have won just one game and lost the other four.

England is almost out of the ICC World Cup 2023 race but will look forward to winning all the remaining games and keeping their team's confidence boosted.

Will Hardik Pandya play today's match or Will Ravichandran Ashwin secure his place in the side from the perspective of Lucknow's spinning track?

India's 'chase master' Virat Kohli currently has 48 ODI centuries registered under his name. If Kohli manages to score another ton in today's match then the right hander will level 'Master Blaster' Sachin Tendulkar's record of 49 ODI centuries. Kohli seems to be in great touch in white ball cricket and has been a consistent performer for Team India in the ICC World Cup 2023 so far. He has scored 354 runs in the five matches.

Will India play Mohammed Shami who picked five wickets against New Zealand in their last clash?

England will feel the absence of their lead pacer Reece Topley who has been ruled out of the ICC World Cup 2023 because of his left hand's index finger injury.
