Fans Flock To Narendra Modi Stadium For India Vs England 3rd ODI Match

February 12, 2025: The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad was buzzing with excitement as fans gathered for the third and final ODI between India and England. With India already leading the series 2-0, supporters were hopeful for a dominant finish from the home team.

Among the passionate crowd was Saifuddin, a devoted Indian cricket fan who traveled all the way from Bhopal to witness the match. Confident in India’s victory, Saifuddin predicted, “India will win today’s match and win the series 3-0. Today’s match will also be one-sided.”

The previous match had seen Indian captain Rohit Sharma silence his critics in spectacular fashion, delivering a fiery century that propelled India to a four-wicket victory. Chasing 305, Rohit’s powerful knock of 119 from 90 balls, including 12 fours and seven sixes, led the hosts to an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series. His 32nd ODI century solidified his place as one of India’s most reliable match-winners.

Rohit’s performance, supported by Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer, dismantled England’s defense with precision. Jadeja, watching from the dressing room, praised Rohit’s century as a positive sign for India, especially with the Champions Trophy fast approaching on February 20. Rohit’s measured start was followed by an aggressive spell, with his first six coming off the spinners and reaching fifty in just 30 balls. On his 76th delivery, he launched the ball into the stands, securing his 32nd ODI century and reinforcing his commitment to leading India from the front.

With the series already in India’s favor, the third ODI provided an opportunity for the team to experiment with new combinations ahead of the upcoming marquee event.
