IND vs ENG Probable 11: Rohit Sharma-led India will be looking for a rematch of the 2022 T20 World Cup semi-finals where the English Men secured victory and moved into finals to claim their second title.
IND vs ENG Probable 11
India is set to face one of the most formidable opponents in the T20 World Cup 2024 stages. India and England are scheduled to play in the 2nd Semifinals of the tournament. With South Africa qualifying for the finals for the first time in the T20 World Cup, the outcome of the upcoming match will decide the second finalists of the 2024 edition.
Their clash in the 2022 semi-finals has been a nightmare for the Men in Blues as they lost the match by 10 wickets. India batted first to post a score of 168 runs in 20 overs where Jos Buttler and Alex Hales chased the target in 16 overs. With clashing about four times in T20 World Cup history, both sides have two victories.
Currently, India remains unbeaten in the ongoing tournament after winning three matches in the group stages with a match against Canada washed out due to rain. In the Super 8s, they won all three matches against Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh to secure a top position in the points table.
Meanwhile, England secured two victories out of four in group stages with one match getting washed out due to rain. They secured two victories in the Super 8 stages and became the second team to qualify for the semi-finals.
IND vs ENG Pitch Report
Roger Harper, who is from Guyana, says it’s a clash of titans and hopes to see high-quality cricket on Thursday morning. The former West Indies spinner’s wish is likely to be fulfilled as there is very little to differentiate between the sides. The pitch is likely to aid spinners and teams batting first have won three of the five encounters at this venue during this World Cup. Again, very little to cede advantage one way or the other.
