The last time T20Is series for India was against Australia as they managed to nick a 2-1 win and will be keen on carrying on the momentum in the shortest format of the game. However, England do have a star studded squad as well, with most of them being a part of the iconic World Cup win at home 2019.

IND vs ENG Prediction | IND vs ENG Playing 11

India Team News

The India team will have plenty of new faces in the colored blue in contrast to how the eleven shaped up in the Test series. Virat Kohli recently announced that it’s Rohit Sharma and K.L. Rahul who will be opening the innings with the bat, while, Shikhar Dhawan might have to wait his turn. Hardik Pandya returns to the fray as well, while, the middle order could have the likes of Shreyas Iyer or newcomer Suryakumar Yadav. With Rahul already in the eleven, it would be interesting to see if Rishab Pant gets an opportunity. Bhuvneshwar Kumar makes his well awaited return after being out of action due to a back injury. However, he might have to ease his way back in, which should give the nod to Shradul Thakur or Deepak Chahar. Washington Sundar has been one of Virat Kohli’s favorite in recent times, and could accompany Yuzvendra Chahal for the spin department. Here is the tentative combination for the IND vs ENG Dream11 Team Prediction.
