It’s a do-or-die match for Team India.
The Indian team appears to be in trouble in this five-match T20 series against England. After the first three T20 matches, Team India is trailing 0-2 in the series. After the first match was washed out due to rain, England defeated India by four wickets in the second T20 and by a massive margin of 125 runs in the third. The fourth T20 match has now become a do-or-die situation for India. If India loses this match as well, England will win the series, and India will suffer its second consecutive T20 series defeat after the one against Ireland.
