India made a strong start to the three-match ODI series by defeating England by six wickets at Edgbaston. After winning the toss, England collapsed from a promising position before recovering to post 258, thanks to resilient half-centuries from Joe Root and Liam Dawson. Axar Patel led India's bowling with four wickets before producing a match-winning unbeaten 57. Shubman Gill anchored the chase with a fluent 80, while Washington Sundar remained unbeaten on 52 to seal victory with 28 balls to spare. The win gives India a 1-0 series lead and a confident response after their recent T20I series defeat. (PC: ANI)
