Team India Preview:
The Indian team is in very good form in this format at this time. They have won 13 of the last 15 T20 games.
Team Combination: Virat Kohli cleared that KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma will be the openers of the team so Shikhar Dhawan will miss out despite performing decently in the IPL and in the last series. Any 2 of Rishabh Pant/Suryakumar Yadav/S Iyer will play in the middle order. In the bowling department, T Natarajan is unavailable for the first match while Bhuvi is set to play after a long injury layoff. Any 1 of Navdeep Saini and Deepak Chahar should play.

England Team Preview:
Finally, the England team will be back in their favorite format. They are the no.1 team of this format so their confidence will be high. Jos Buttler will open the inning along with Jason Roy while J Bairstow and E Morgan will bat at no. 4 and no. 6 respectively.
Probable 11 :
Jason Roy, Jos Buttler, Dawid Malan, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes, Eoin Morgan, Moeen Ali, Sam Curran/Tom Curran, Chris Jordan, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid
Eoin Morgan was batting at no. 6 in the last t20 series against South Africa.
J Bairstow and Jason Roy generally struggle against the spinners on the slow and neutral wickets so India will surely target them with the spinners but the problem is that this wicket is expected to be batting friendly.
Team Breakup:
Main Batters: Jason Roy, Jos Buttler, Dawid Malan, E Morgan
Main Spinners: Adil Rashid and Moeen Ali
