This is how we arrived at the main event of the summer: with all due respect for Pakistan and Australia, the next T20I, ODI and Test series against India have always been the most this season 's tempting schedule and considering the relative strengths of England and India, the white ball matches between these two teams are set to
The first re of eleven games in three formats begins Tuesday (July 3) with a T20I at Old Trafford before two other short format games in Cardiff and Bristol. The recent strong performances of England against Australia and India 's remarkable strength in cricket T20, driven by the IPL giant, mean that we expect to High quality cricket with high octane number.
All the ingredients are there. In Virat Kohli and Jos Buttler, there is a match-up of two of the world's most destructive drummers while they are probably the two best batting linemen at the moment. Both pins have rhythm, skill and play – although India has the strongest pedigree of cricket T20 – while there should not be too much choice between the two.
Both teams are also in good shape. England just beat Australia at five points in the ODI series and was also victorious in an exceptional T20I while India, ranked number two in the world in the shortest format, comes to double Ireland to win six successive T20I victories. . England has recent memories of Old Trafford who narrowly beat Australia in an ODI last week, thanks to a Buttler genie.
It's a very strong Indian holiday and after giving everyone a good start in Ireland, eleven is not going to be easy for Kohli and the team management. There is little doubt that India has more depth and experience in this format than England who missed the injured pair Ben Stokes and Tom Curran and the rested Mark Wood, who have all three played in IPL this season
The most interesting aspect of the series will be how England handles the twins of Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzi Chahal. The pair, who are the T20I's two major cruisers since the last T20 World, should pose more problems to a home batting lineup than the Australian managed bowling attack but wrists might find it hard to Manchester. . Traditionally, the slowest men fight in the T20s at Old Trafford, on average almost double that of the seamers.
The last time the two teams met in T20Is, India early 2017, Kohli's team was victorious. -1. The overall record between the two teams favors England, with six wins from its eleven matches against India, but given the relative scarcity of T20Is and the difficulty in building game and trust patterns , no matter how little.
Maybe the only thing that will deter the attention of the clash will be the Football World Cup with England playing Colombia in Moscow in the first round playoff of the tournament the same evening. The kickoff is given at 7:00 pm English time, which should be just as the second rounds begin. Supporters of England are hoping for a double celebration
When: Tuesday, July 3, 2018. 5:30 pm English Time
Where: Old Trafford, Manchester. [19659007] What to expect: It is expected to be another scorer for the match – England is enjoying a prolonged and very welcome heat wave at this time – and the terrain should be hard and true and good for the hitting, slow surface that hosted the fifth ODI against Australia
Team News
England
England should stay in the same team that beat Australia at Edgbaston last week Although Captain Eoin Morgan has confirmed that he will try to experiment all three matches while he is preparing for the next World T20. Ben Stokes and Tom Curran are not fit for this game, but they could play the last two games, which will give more options to Morgan
without the rest of Mark Wood, Chris Jordan, David Willey and Liam Plunkett. attack in the final eleven in Manchester as they did in Birmingham with Adil Rashid and Moeen Ali providing rotation. Joe Root, despite some control over his place in the camp and the inclusion of Dawid Malan in the team as injury cover for Tom Curran, will keep his place in the middle order.
Likely XI: Jason Roy, Jos Buttler, Alex Hales, Joe Root, Eoin Morgan (c), Jonny Bairstow, Moeen Ali, Liam Plunkett, David Willey, Chris Jordan, Adil Rashid.
India
Umesh Yadav The best result this year for Virat Kohli is that of Virat Kohli, which should allow Siddarth Kaul to access the fast launcher place left vacant by the injured Jasprit Bumrah. Umesh's ability to trouble the drummers with the pace in overs powerplay could be a big plus against this England team. Kaul, with its variations, seems to be a more complete option, but Umesh should have the nod at first. The first T20I might be too early for Deepak Chahar, even if he is the man that India is looking for because he will join the team only after the final three rounds of India A, played Monday at Kennington Oval in London (02 July).
The average order around MS Dhoni at 5 also seems uncertain. India has three options to Suresh Raina, Manish Pandey and Dinesh Karthik for potentially two spots – No. 4 and No. 6 or 7 – with Hardik Pandya also being a definite start as one of the finishers.
Likely XI: Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni, Manish Pandey / Dinesh Karthik, Hardik Pandya, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Umesh Yadav
What they said:
"We believe in our abilities as a team, we have a lot of T20 experience, we just came out of the IPL and the cup of matches against Ireland, where the team looked good, the wickets are going to be something that offers entertainment to the crowd, so it does not make any difference. There is not a single team that has an advantage in this format. "- Virat Kohli is not in the mood to pick favorites for the T20Is.
"I think our IPL gaming experience is good for us because it exposes our players to the biggest competition in the world, we had 9 at the auction, 13 with players replacement, which is the best we have ever had, it's a great experience and good exposure for our players, but it also shows where we are.
