India Vs England 5th T20 Preview
Rahul Tewatia may get in, all eyes on K.L. Rahul
Having dismissed England in the 4th Twenty20 International through a thrilling 8-run victory India seems confident before they face England in the 5th and concluding T20I at the same venue at Narendra Modi Stadium on Saturday on 20th March. Team India who has been in a process of making preparation for the T20 World Cup at home later this year will be more specific following this rigorous series.
India Vs England 5th T20 Match preview will mention India’s attacking strength which they were lacking earlier. With the emergence of Ishan Kishan and Surya Kumar Yadav Indian batting seems to have found x-factor who both had made dream debut in the ongoing T20Is against England. Especially, Surya Kumar Yadav’s 57 off 23 deliveries in the 4th T20I has made captain Kohli highly impressed. The captain in his post match conversation with the media has stated that it was not easy to bat at number three position in a debut match. Virat Kohli, praising a lot for the youngsters stated more that Shreyas, Hardik Pandya and Pant must have been inspired by Surya Kumar’ s authority over English bowlers.
There is also a discussion going on in the India Vs England 5th T20 Match preview that with Kishan and Yadav’s eye-catching debut in the ongoing series, Haryana all-rounder Rahul Tewatia is the only one in the squad who is yet to make his debut, might have a chance to get into the playing eleven on Saturday. Virat Kohli seems to have one major relief that Hardik Pandya, who was struggling to regain his form, had 2 wickets at the cost of 16 runs in 4 overs. Rahul Chahar also, replacing experienced Yuzvendra Chahal, had exhibited an impressive show in the 4th T20I. The only anxiety Team India seems carrying is poor form of K.L. Rahul His last three scores have been 1, 0 and 0. Even though Virat Kohli has stood beside him, Rahul must have to show his potential and regain touch. However, Kohli seems satisfied with his teammates unleashing a formidable score and being able to defend it even though dew factor became a crucial obstruction to the Indian bowlers.
In the India Vs England 5th T20 preview, talking about England side, team captain Eoin Morgan must be looking towards his most aggressive two batsmen Jos Buttler and Jason Roy. Roy was as usual in his touch with a quick 40 but Jos Buttler failed to click on the day. Dawid Malan is also expected to be more consistent with his bat. Considering the bowling strength England seems happy with Jofra Archer and Mark Wood but Chris Jordan, having leaked most runs in the 4th T20 seems little under pressure before the 5th T20I. With seven months left for the T20 World Cup, to be staged in India England one-day captain Eoin Morgan has revealed they also have been in the same process India is and continuously making preparation for the competition.
