England vs India 1st ODI: Get the latest playing 11 predictions, toss updates, and team news from the 1st ODI match of the three-match series between India and England beginning at the Oval in London

Indian team, after winning the T20I series, will be brimming with confidence to try and take the ODI series as well. But this time around the competition is going to be stiffer as England will have the services of their experienced warhorses like Joe Root and Ben Stokes as well.

India on the other hand might not have Virat Kohli available for selection for the first match as he has picked up a groin injury. Thus, it would be interesting to see who fills his place. 

Here's how the Playing 11 of India and Ireland would look like

The Indian team would look to continue the opening with the experienced pairing of skipper Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan while Shreyas Iyer will play at number three if Kohli is not available. 

Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya will fill the remaining places in the batting lineup with Ravindra Jadeja playing at number seven. Alongside Yuzvendra Chahal, the three pacers could be Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami and Prasidh Krishna. 

As for England, they would look to open with Jonny Bairstow and Jason Roy with Joe Root coming in at number three. In the middle order, Liam Livingstone, Ben Stokes and skipper Jos Buttler will form a firm trio. With Moeen Ali at seven and David Willey at eight, the English batting lineup looks a solid one to chase anything down. 

Considering the conditions and the fact that Livinsgttone and Root can bowl, the English side would look to play three out-and-out pacers with Willey. They could be Craig Overton, Reece Topley and one among Brydon Crase and Sam Curran. Carse has greater chances given that there are already two left-arm pacers in Willey and Topley in the playing eleven.
