ENG vs IND 2nd ODI, ODI Approaching Milestones and Records: The Indian cricket team finally had some success on the UK tour. They had seven winless matches and recorded a much-needed win to start the ODI series with a win. Axar Patel produced a match-winning display, and captain Shubman Gill was very close to a century before getting retired out. Washington Sundar also played well for his unbeaten half-century and ended the game with a six.

England were very consistent in T20Is, but their over-aggressive approach needs to get a reality check. They made mistakes at the toss, and their batting also had a couple of bad collapses. But they will look to bounce back to level the series. The second game is scheduled for Thursday at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff at 5:30 PM IST.

India didn't get many contributions from their senior pros, but as a unit, they were better than England. India went in with five specialist batters, which can backfire on them. Meanwhile, the first game saw some exciting records getting broken, while some key records are on the line in the second ODI also.

Here, we will talk about big records and milestones which are lined up and can be achieved in the England vs India second ODI clash at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff.
