India Preview and Playing XI
India have been dominant in the tournament and in the last match they defeated New Zealand by four wickets at Dharamsala. Mohammad Shami on his return to the playing XI bowled a match winning spell and finished with match figures of (5/54) and he is also the only Indian bowler to take two five wicket hauls in back to back world cups.
Virat Kohli has been in phenomenal form smashing 354 runs in five matches. Ravindra Jadeja’s match winning knock against New Zealand is a good news as he has been off the beat in recent times. India might play Ravichandran Ashwin ahead of Mohammad Siraj as the pitch assists spinners and with England batting lineup filled with four to five left handers it could be a great move if Ashwin delivers and scores runs.
India Playing XI: Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Mohammad Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav.
England Preview and Playing XI
England are having a nightmare of a tournament as they struggled to form a formidable playing XI and the team combinations hasnt helped their cause. Their mainstay batters Joe Root, Jos Butler and the hero of the 2019 World Cup, Ben Stokes is yet to make his mark in the tournament. Injuries to their key bowlers hasnt helped their cause either and in a must win game against India, England might go in with the same playing XI.
England Playing XI: Jonny Bairstow, Dawid Malan, Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Jos Butler (C & wk), Moeen Ali, Liam Livingstone, David Willey, Chris Woakes, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood.
