The top two teams, England (No. 1) and India (No. 2), in T20 International cricket will look to stamp their supremacy in the shortest format, when they square off in the first match of the five-match T20 series at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Motera, in Ahmedabad on Friday.
The visitors would look to restore their pride under skipper Eoin Morgan, who leads the white ball sides in the five T20s and three ODIs. England would look to return to its winning ways after losing the four-match Test series 3-1 and consequently failing to qualify for the ICC World Test Championship.
England’s white-ball specialists are expected to pose a tough challenge for the Virat Kohli-led team as they are more adapted to playing on flatter decks in limited overs games unlike in Test matches where the pitches demanded application against spinners.
As many as 13 of the 16 players in England’s T20 squad have prior experience of the Indian Premier League (IPL) with some of the top players like skipper Morgan, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler and Jofra Archer being an integral part of their respective IPL squads.
