Big picture: Fearless India Vobli meets England
Since winning the T20 World Cup in June last June, fifteen wins and two defeats in 17 T20s have almost made India almost impermeable in the format. This is due to the Cramp cricket calendar, despite mixing and matching its players. It is scary to imagine what they can achieve if Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav are back in the mixture.
There is fearless that they are revealed by freedom that they are revelations under their captain. It has given Gautam Gambhir less headache in at least one format, as India’s infection has been posted to Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja.

In Spotlight: Suryakumar Yadav and Liam Livingstone
Suryakumar Yadav There was a mixed bag in South Africa, but when he ranked Tilak Verma for the third and fourth T20I, the young man stood with a back-to-back centuries. Suryakumar managed a score of 21, 4 and 1 in three innings there, and is now 0 and 12 in two matches in this series. Rajkot’s return may end the memories of the happiness of killing its first T20I century in India – 2023 vs. Sri Lanka.
Liam Livingstone Spin has come to India with a reputation to play well, but is out for spinners in both sports. In Kolkata, he bowled Varun Chakraborty incorrectly wrongly through the gate. In Chennai, he was not responsible for Exer Patel’s lift and was caught pulling him. India is likely to remain with its four-dimensional spin attack, Livingstone needs to create a method that allows him to score with a rate that has made him a warm property.
Team News: Dube, Jurall or Ramandip?
India , 11 Varun Chakraborty.
England xi: Phil Salat (WK), 2 Ben Docket, 3 Jose Butler (Captain), 4 Harry Brook, 5 Liam Livingstone, 6 Jamie Smith, 7 Jamie Overton, 8 Bridan Cars, 9 Jofra Archer, 10 Mark Wood, 11 Adil Rashid.
Pitch and Conditions: Highway in Rajkot?
Only two types of surfaces in Rajkot are largely possible due to geography. A road that occurs from several highways, which moves next to Niranjan Shah Stadium, and a rank turner that Saurashtra – Home Team – often tailor, such as he did, in line with his spin strength, like last week. Given that this is a T20i, there is no doubt what will happen on the proposal. So expect a flat track filled with run, and dew which will make the most often very important.
