ENG vs IND Dream11 team, 1st England vs India test match prediction, who will win

ENG V/s IND dream11 today match prediction: The next edition of WTC will kick-start with England hosting India for a 5 match test series. England were hammered by India in a 4 match test series earlier this year on rank turners after England shocked everyone by winning the first test.

India copped a lot of criticism from former England players for preparing such tracks where the game didn’t even last for 7 sessions. India were under the pressure during that series as WTC final was on cards. India can go into this series expecting some extremely seamer friendly conditions which was the case in 2018.

ENG V/s IND 1^st Test Dream 11 Match Prediction

Indian captain Virat Kohli was operating on a different level when these 2 teams met in England last time around. He scored 593 runs in 5 tests including 2 centuries and 3 50s. It was the redemption for 2014 where he scored a grand total of 134 in 10 innings. It was the series where all the batsmen struggled to get going but Virat Kohli was scoring runs for fun.
Jos Buttler has emerged as one of the integral parts of England’s test side in the last 2 years or so. He was a disappointment in tests pre 2018 but he started to up his game big time. He was the 2^nd leading run getter from England in 2018 with 349 runs.
The pocket dynamite Sam Curran was the difference between India losing and winning the series in 2018. He scored 272 runs at an average of 38 and picked 11 wickets in 4 games. His all round performance in that series was one for the ages.

ENG V/s IND Today Match Prediction

England will be without their superstar all-rounder in Ben Stokes. He took an indefinite break from playing cricket just days before the series. He gives massive balance to the side. It is also fair to say that he is the best test batsman in that England setup at the moment.

He is known for his long spells with the ball when nothing is going for England. He provides that breathing space for England being the 5^th bowler and it will be a huge blow for England.

ENG V/s IND Winnings Chances

The odds are in favor of the hosts in England. Indian batting lineup is so fragile so is England’s but you expect the home team to find ways to score runs at some stage of the game to put the opposition under pressure. England vs India dream11 prediction
