IND vs ENG 2nd T20I: Masterstroke of Shreyas and Gambhir will be seen in Manchester today! This 15 year old prodigy will try to break Sachin’s record, Samson’s leave fixed?

New Delhi/Manchester: The second match of the ongoing 5-match T20 International series between India and England will be played today at 7:00 pm at the historic Old Trafford ground in Manchester. The series is currently tied at 0-0 after the first match played at Chester-le-Street was washed out due to rain. In such a situation, both the teams will take the field today with the intention of taking the lead. But before this match, the biggest discussion is about the playing eleven of the Indian team, where captain Shreyas Iyer and head coach Gautam Gambhir can make surprising changes in view of the fast pitch of Manchester. The green grass of Old Trafford will change the team’s combination, the blame will fall on the spinners. In the first match, Team India had given a chance to three frontline spinners in the form of Varun Chakraborty, Akshar Patel and Ravi Bishnoi. However, the pitch at Manchester’s Old Trafford ground is famous for its high bounce and green grass, which traditionally proves helpful to fast bowlers. Keeping this in mind, the Indian team management can take the field today with the strategy of 2 spinners and 3 specialist fast bowlers. Due to this strategic change, Ravi Bishnoi may have to sit out of the playing eleven. Sachin Tendulkar’s 37 year old mega-record will be broken, Vaibhav Suryavanshi will create history! The biggest attraction of this match could be 15-year-old young sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi. If reports are to be believed, Sanju Samson, who is struggling with poor form, may be shown the way out of the playing eleven and in his place Vaibhav Suryavanshi may get the responsibility of opening along with Abhishek Sharma. If Vaibhav takes the field today, he will become the youngest Indian player to make his international debut at the age of just 15 years and 99 days. With this, he will also break the 37 year old record of great batsman Sachin Tendulkar (debut at the age of 16 years and 205 days). This will be the setup of middle order and all-rounders. After Abhishek and Vaibhav in the top order, wicketkeeper batsman Ishan Kishan will take command at number 3. Captain Shreyas Iyer himself will come out to bat at the fourth position, while vice-captain Tilak Verma will strengthen the middle order at number-5. In the role of all-rounder, Shivam Dubey (number-6) and Akshar Patel (number-7) will provide depth and aggression to the team in the lower order. Varun Chakraborty will hold the main responsibility of the spin department along with Akshar Patel. These youngsters will get a chance in the pace attack, 5 players will be eliminated. The command of fast bowling will be in the hands of left-handed cutter specialist Arshdeep Singh, to support whom Harshit Rana and Prince Yadav can be included in the playing eleven. Apart from this, Shivam Dubey will provide the option as the fourth fast bowler. Due to tough competition, Sanju Samson, Ravi Bishnoi, Prasidh Krishna, Washington Sundar and Suryansh Shedge may have to sit on the bench from today’s match. India’s probable playing XI for the second T20I: Abhishek Sharma, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper), Shreyas Iyer (captain), Tilak Verma (vice-captain), Shivam Dubey, Axar Patel, Varun Chakraborty, Harshit Rana, Prince Yadav, Arshdeep Singh.
