Sanju batting against England

LONDON: Team India is readying itself for the next match to make corrections from the shock defeat in the T20 series against Ireland. India will take to the field tomorrow for the first match of the five-match T20 series against England. Harry Brook will lead the English team. India will enter the match under the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer. The Riverside Ground in Chester-le-Street will be the venue for the first match tomorrow.

The 0-2 series loss to Ireland led to a lot of discussion in the Indian camp. Batting coach Ryan Neil ten Doeschate made his disappointment public, making things worse. With this, there are indications that there will be big changes in the Indian line-up for tomorrow's match. Teenage star Vaibhav Suryavanshi is likely to make his debut in the Twenty20 International for India tomorrow.

The cricket world is eagerly waiting to see whose place in the Indian line-up will be taken if Vaibhav makes it to the playing eleven. Malayali star Sanju Samson and Ishan Kishan are currently out of form. Sanju, who shone in the World Cup and IPL, failed to shine in both matches against Ireland. Meanwhile, Ishan Kishan could only score 13 runs (1, 12) in the two matches. The Indian batting line-up will have to change its approach to face the English bowlers. It is more or less confirmed that either Sanju or Ishan will have to be on the bench tomorrow.
