In the third and final ODI, India defeated England by 5 wickets to win the series 2-1, thanks in large part to an undefeated century from Rishabh Pant.

India were at 72 for four at one point when chasing a goal of 260. It was before they were being saved by Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya. They successfully defended the score with 47 balls remaining thanks to the pair’s 133 run fifth-wicket partnership.

The visitors reached 261/5 in 42.1 overs because to Pandya’s valiant 71 runs off 55 balls, who was also in excellent hitting form. Hardik was out after reaching 71 while Pant continued undefeated at 125 after scoring his first ODI century.

In the earlier third ODI, which is now taking place at the Old Trafford Cricket Ground in Manchester, Yuzvendra Chahal and Hardik Pandya each claimed four wickets, as India dismissed England for 259 runs.

For England, Reece Topley was in excellent form and claimed three wickets. Initially, India bowled out the hosts for 259 in 45.5 overs thanks to a four-wicket haul from Pandya.
