A five-match T20 series is going on between India vs England. The first match of the series was played on 1 July at the Riverside Ground, Chester-le-Street, England. The Indian team batted first. With the help of half-centuries from opening batsman Abhishek Sharma and captain Shreyas Iyer, the score reached 189 runs. As soon as India’s innings ended, the rain increased and due to this the match had to be declared a no result. Now both the teams have started preparing for the second match of the series.
Let us tell you that after the 2-0 defeat against Ireland, the Indian team captained by Shreyas Iyer would like to win the T20 series against England at any cost. However it is not that easy. At present the England team also seems to be in very good form. Even though the first match was washed out due to rain, the England team is also now setting its sights on the second match.
What time will the second match start?
Let us tell you that the second match of the T20 series is just a few hours away. The preparations of both the teams are also in the final stages. The second match will be played at Old Trafford ground in Manchester on July 7 at 7 pm. Although the first match started at 10 pm, but it is good news for Indian fans that the second match will start as per Indian time.
India’s batting is a matter of concern
There is a lot of pressure on the Indian team in this series. The performance of Indian batsmen in the T20 series against Ireland was quite disappointing. So far, the bats of Sanju Samson as well as Ishan Kishan and Tilak Verma are calm for the Indian team. Tilak scored the required half-century in the second T20 match against Ireland but the strike rate has become a problem. In such a situation, the Indian team will have to pay a lot of attention to its batting in the second match played against England.
All eyes on Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s debut
The eyes of Indian cricket fans are fixed on the debut of Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Vaibhav was not given a place in the playing 11 in the T20 series against Ireland. After which there were speculations that perhaps Vaibhav would be given a place in the series against England, but even in the first T20 match, Vaibhav was not included in the playing 11. There is a lot of discussion in the cricket circles about Vaibhav not getting a place in the playing 11.
Let us tell you that opener Sanju Samson is not scoring runs. He was out in the last match after scoring only one run on seven balls. Ishan Kishan, who came third, also returned to the pavilion without opening his account.
