For the unversed, Kohli is active in only the ODIs, as he has called it a day from the other two formats. He would be back to playing competitive cricket in England. 

The 50-over leg will begin on July 14 Edgbaston with subsequent matches in Cardiff (July 16) and Lord’s (July 19). 

India ODI squad for England tour: Shubman Gill (Captain), Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli*, Shreyas Iyer (Vice-Captain), KL Rahul (WK), Ishan Kishan (WK), Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Prasidh Krishna, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh, Gurnoor Brar.

Is Kohli Fit? 

Kohli, who sustained a hamstring injury during the IPL 2026 final in Ahmedabad, will be available for the series only after obtaining the necessary fitness clearance, the BCCI announced in its statement. Going by the latest clip, it is clear that he has recovered from the hamstring issue and is fit to play. It needs to be noted that despite left-hander Yashasvi Jaiswal impressing with his second ODI century against Afghanistan in Chennai, he has been omitted from the side upon Kohli’s return.

The T20I series is going on and the opening game was washed out due to rain.
