Jos Buttler has won the toss and elected to bat first in the second ODI against England. “We have been pushing in the right direction but it is important to perform well. It is important to pick right moments to attack and play smart cricket. We have made three changes. Wood, Atkinson and Overton come in,” Jos Buttler said.

Rohit Sharma called Cuttack pitch a typical Indian track. “It is a typical Indian pitch but I am not sure of the pace but it will get slower. We had a good game in Nagpur but it is important to continue giving our best.
