Key events:
Good morning! The heat is as fierce as promised today in Manchester, though a slight haze has brought relief to the swifts suddenly swirling the local streets, as England and India meet for the final ODI. This is the decider, after Jos Buttler’s team suddenly found their mojo at Lord’s. The last time these two teams met at Old Trafford was for the Test that never was, when events were called off at the last minute, spectators already trickling into the ground, souvenir sellers outside. No chance of anyone pulling out today: the match is a sell-out and both teams will find full-throated support. The main talking point for India, is the lack of form of Virat Kohli – who was sent a personal message of support from Babar Azam earlier this week. England? After a chaotic few white-ball days, they just want the win.
