As usual, Gill lost the toss and England opted to bat first!

Kl,arsh, prince comeback

The captains out in the middle now! Shubman Gill calls tails, but it is heads. England win the toss and have a bat.

Shubman Gill: We would have bowled. Boom misses out due to knee injury. KL, Prince and Arshdeep come in. We were looking to play four seamers. We were in a great position and lost too many wickets.

Harry Brook: We're gonna have a bat today. Looks like a good surface. Tongue comes back in for Saqib Mahmood. The way Rooty batted sets a great template. Hopefully we'll assess conditions quickly.

Here's the update from BCCI - "Jasprit Bumrah had an impact injury on his left knee while fielding in the second ODI in Cardiff. He was not available for selection for the third ODI due to reactive swelling in his left knee."

Yuvi and his wife is here to ring the bell

Jofra Archer [in a chat with Sky Cricket]: [On his bowling rhythm and consistency across the white-ball formats] Very pleased with how it's coming. Sometimes the wickets don't always come there, but I think this has probably been the best I've bowled consistently. I don't think I've bowled one bad ball. If it goes for four, that's fine, but I put it where I want to put it. [On how he judges the quality of his bowling] Probably just the lengths, to be honest, because some days you're going to bowl faster than some. So as long as you're consistently hitting the length, you can be tired, you can be excited, but as long as you're hitting the same length, then I think that's the real discipline. [On his contest with Virat Kohli and the importance of taking key wickets] Yeah, he's the key, it's stopping them from getting 300. You get him, you get Rohit, you get Shubman. The others probably will still take them to 300, but I think if you get them out, you significantly stop the chances of happening. [On taking on a senior role in England's bowling attack] I guess I was just lucky to play a few more games. I think he's [Tongue] being a bit modest. I think everyone helps everyone. And it's usually whoever gets the ball first, then you just relay the information. So, like, in the Test stuff, it's mostly him feeding stuff back sometimes. Yeah, I've played a few 50-over games, and it's not that complicated. You just hit the length, and then it just depends if you go straight or if you just go a bit on fourth stump. It's just realising that quickly and then just passing the information on to the other guys. [On the passing of Sir Garfield Sobers] To the community and West Indies cricket, legend, pioneer, one of the greatest all-rounders ever. I actually saw him a couple of months ago when I was home. Said he was moving well for his age, but, you know, very, very sad to hear about him yesterday.

The players and the match officials line up to observe a minute's silence for the passing of Sir Garfield Sobers.
