Faced with a climbing run-rate in the final overs, India lost wickets at crucial intervals and eventually ended on 306/5. Earlier, Jonny Bairstow바카라™ 111 and half-centuries from Jason Roy and Ben Stokes powered England to a mammoth 337/7. Mohammed Shami (5/69) was the pick of the Indian bowlers.

23:21 hrs IST: That's it. Thank you for joining us! 

Jonny Bairstow, Player of the Match: "It was important to set up a platform. It's been frustrating a little bit for the guys, we know how well we can play. But today we were pretty good with bat, ball and in the field. But there's still things we can improve on against New Zealand. Having been at the IPL with VVS definitely helped (deal with spinners). The basic principles are the same. They bowled well upfront and the ball did a bit, a couple of inside edges went for fours. But you capitalise when you can. It was the closest to a complete performance we've had in the competition, but we also know we've got three must-win games in this World Cup up next."

23:05 hrs IST: That's it. England win by 31 runs. India's unbeaten run in the 2019 World Cup is over. England are back on track. If they beat New Zealand on Wednesday, they'll progress to the semifinals.

21:57 hrs IST: OUT! Slower ball from Woakes, Rohit looks to hit it over mid-wicket but gets an edge and Buttler takes a simple catch. Important breakthrough for England.

18:50 hrs IST: That's it. Splendid over from Bumrah, only three off it. He finishes with 1/44. While Shami took five, he proved to be pretty expensive in the death overs. We'll be back in a short while with India's chase. 

18:43 hrs IST: OUT! Shami gets a five-wicket haul. Using the short ball well. Rohit comes running in from deep square leg to complete a neat catch. England are 334/6 after 49 overs.

17:39 hrs IST: Shami continues to keep things tight. Get a feeling pitch will be slower in the second innings. India need to strike here. England are 213/3 after 36 overs. Root 26*, Stokes 3*

17:31 hrs IST: OUT! Short delivery from Shami, Morgan goes for the pull but isn't in control of it, gets a top-edge and Jadhav at fine leg takes a nice running catch. Ben Stokes comes to the crease. England are 207/3 after 34 overs. 

17:25 hrs IST: Has been a good recovery from India. With Shami coming in and finally getting the better of Bairstow, India have a chance of keeping England to under 330. If that happens, it's game on! 

17:06 hrs IST: Would be interesting to see how India respond once they come out to bat. They could be chasing anywhere around 370. England are 196/1 after 29 overs. Bairstow 109*, Root 16*

17:03 hrs IST: Wonderful over from Pandya, only three off it. Uses the variations well. England are 194/1 after 28 overs. Bairstow 109*, Root 14*. Kuldeep to continue

Update on Rahul: Rahul landed on his back while attempting a catch at the long-on boundary. He is being assessed. 

16:58 hrs IST: Single and that's a first World Cup century for Bairstow, overall eighth in ODIs. Lets his bat do the talking! One of the best innings of this tournament. Needs to get a big one here. England are 183/1 after 26 overs.

16:12 hrs IST: SIX! Fuller delivery from Chahal, Bairstow gets into position early and pummels it over long-on for a maximum. A half-century for him. This is a serious assault from England, who are 112/0 after 16 overs. Drinks are on the field now. 

16:08 hrs IST: FOUR! Juicy full toss from Kuldeep and Bairstow smacks it over wide long-on for a boundary. Easy pickings! England are 97/0 after 15 overs. Bairstow 48*, Roy 44*. India seem to be losing control.

15:42 hrs IST: Impressive over from Bumrah. It's a maiden! England are 46/0 after 9 overs. India in desperate need of a couple of wickets here. Looks a high-scoring track. Shami comes back into the attack. 3-0-21-0. Sometimes figures don't reflect how well a bowler has gone about his job. 

15:37 hrs IST: FOUR! Slower, wider from Chahal and Roy thumps it to deep mid-wicket. Shot! Expensive over from Chahal, nine off it. England are 46/0 after 8 overs. Bairstow 25*, Roy 19*

15:04 hrs IST: FOUR! Fuller length from Shami, Roy leans forward and times it in the gap between cover and mid-off. As Nasser Hussain says, "An 80% fit Roy is worth" for England. Costly start from Shami. England are 9/0 after the first over. Jasprit Bumrah comes into the attack. 

15:00 hrs IST: Time for live action. Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow to open. Mohammed Shami to begin the proceedings. 

He has raw, uninhibited power, and his shots radiate class. And he can entertain the crowds with humongous sixes, summo­ned almost at will. He is Rishabh Pant, India바카라™s most exciting young wicket-keeper-batsman. A batsman, mor­­­eover, cast in the Virender Sehwag-­esque mould--not just in terms of brisk scoring, but also in diet.

14:38 hrs IST: Playing XIs

India: KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli(c), Rishabh Pant, Kedar Jadhav, MS Dhoni(w), Hardik Pandya, Mohammed Shami, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Jasprit Bumrah 

England: Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root, Eoin Morgan(c), Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler(w), Chris Woakes, Adil Rashid, Liam Plunkett, Jofra Archer, Mark Wood

14:33 hrs IST: England have won the toss and have opted to bat

14:20 hrs IST: We'll have the toss in 10 minutes. Looks like Rishabh Pant could play his first World Cup game. He will be replacing Vijay Shankar in that's the case.

--> Meanwhile, Eoin Morgan disagrees with Jonny Bairstow's claim critics are "waiting for England to fail" in the World Cup and expressed his gratitude for the "wonderful support" the hosts have been given.

Bairstow feels comments made by former players including Kevin Pietersen and Michael Vaughan following the defeat to Australia were a "typical English thing to do, in every sport".

--> Australian perfection has yet to be achieved in the eyes of Mitchell Starc despite guiding his side to a seventh win at the World Cup. Starc바카라™s record-breaking third career World Cup five-wicket haul proved characteristically destructive as Australia bowled New Zealand out for 157, securing victory by 86 runs at Lord바카라™s.

13:20 hrs IST: WEATHER UPDATE - The sun has been out in the days leading up to the game, and it is expected to stay that way today as well.

13:03 hrs IST: India have taken nine wickets per match on an average, the best among the 10 sides in this tournament. 

12:56 hrs IST: England have won three of their last four men's ODIs against India, losing one. 

12:49 hrs IST: BIG NUMBER - India have won 16 of their last 17 completed Cricket World Cup matches.

12:45 hrs IST: STAT ATTACK - England have won their previous three ODIs at Edgbaston, their last defeat at the venue coming in 2014 against India.

12:40 hrs IST: Hello and welcome to Outlook's live coverage of the ICC World Cup 2019 game between England and India. 

Not long ago, England were considered to be favourites to win the tournament but Eoin Morgan's men have bungled big time in crucial situations, which has left them on the verge of early exit with just eight points from seven games.

Wins against India and New Zealand in their final league stage matches will guarantee England a last-four berth, but anything less will leave them vulnerable to results elsewhere. (SCENARIOS)

Opener Jason Roy (hamstring) is expected to return to the England side, while fast bowler Jofra Archer (side strain) is a doubt. 

England captain Eoin Morgan said: "I think we're in an extremely lucky position. To be in playing in a home World Cup for your own country is an extremely privileged position to be in and presents a huge opportunity. (There are) two more group-stage games left. If we win the two, we go through to the semi-finals, if we win that, we get through to a World Cup final. There's still a lot on the line, and we're really looking forward to it."

India skipper Virat Kohli said: "Everyone is a bit surprised, we thought England is probably going to dominate in their own conditions, but as I said at the beginning of the tournament in the press conference, that pressure is going to be a massive factor to handle and low scores are going to be defended. I said that because I have played two World Cups and that usually happens in such a big tournament where all teams are very strong."

India have happy memories of facing England at Edgbaston, having triumphed in the final of the ICC Champions Trophy six years ago.

In this World Cup, Rohit Sharma has hit two centuries, while Virat Kohli has scored four consecutive half-centuries. MS Dhoni, who was criticised for his slow knock against Afghanistan, scored a crucial half-century against West Indies.

The middle-order still remains a concern and Vijay Shankar's performance at No. 4 certainly makes him a weak link.  

But Kohli suggested India would field an unchanged squad with Bhuvneshwar Kumar continuing his recovery from a tight hamstring and Shankar retaining his place. Mohammed Shami, who replaced Bhuvneshwar, has claimed eight wickets in two matches and is a certainty.
