IND vs ENG: 5 England players you must have in your dream11 team during ODI series

The three-match IND vs ENG ODI series will begin on February 6 in Nagpur.

After an action-packed T20I series, it is time for the three-match ODI series between India and England. The matches will be played on February 6, 9, and 12 in Nagpur. Cuttack and Ahmedabad respectively.

England were hammered in the T20I series, losing 4-1. They were exposed against spin and will be challenged once again in the ODIs. India will be looking to make the most of this opportunity and try out different combinations.

This series will be important for both sides as they prepare for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Especially for England, who have been disappointing in the last two ICC white-ball tournaments.

Here, we will talk about five England players you must pick in your Dream11 teams during the IND vs ENG ODIs.

Five England players you must have in your Dream11 teams during the IND vs ENG ODI series:

5. Brydon Carse

The English pacer Brydon Carse had an impressive T20I series. He was the second-highest wicket-taker with nine wickets in four games, and also contributed with the bat. He bowled smartly on the Indian pitches and outfoxed the host batters.

He can be a great addition to your fantasy cricket teams. As a bowling all-rounder, Carse can be a game-changer for your Dream11 teams.

4. Phil Salt

Phil Salt had poor outings in the first four T20Is, but then he slammed a 21-ball fifty in Mumbai. That is how he plays, and that knock must have given him confidence heading into the ODIs.

Salt will be keeping wickets and not Buttler. So he can also earn points on fantasy cricket platforms with the gloves, which makes him a good pick for your Dream11 teams for the upcoming ODIs.

3. Jos Buttler

In this current England squad, Jos Buttler has played the most ODIs in India and also has vast experience of the Indian Premier League on these pitches.

He was in a fine touch in the first three T20Is. He will be looking to do well as captain and batter in the ODI series, and also improve his ODI record in India: Buttler has an average of only 13.81 in India.

Once he gets going, Buttler can do a lot of damage, which makes him a must-have pick in your Dream11 fantasy cricket teams.

2. Joe Root

England struggled against spin in T20Is, but they will be strengthened in that aspect of their batting with the return of Joe Root. He is the best England batsman against spin, and is coming off a great SA20 season.

Root has been excellent in ODIs, and he is a bankable batter for these conditions. Root averages 40 in ODIs in India, with six fifties in 15 outings.

You can have him as a captaincy option for your Dream11 teams.

1. Liam Livingstone

Liam Livingstone had a decent T20I series, where he had good phases of play with bat and ball. He would like to contribute more in the ODI series. A power-hitter, Livingstone can take his time to settle down and assess the pitch in ODI cricket, a luxury he doesn’t get in T20Is.

Livingstone can give fantasy cricket points in all three departments, which makes him a brilliant pick for your Dream11 teams for the IND vs ENG ODIs.
