Big Test For Shreyas Iyer
Shreyas Iyer’s appointment as captain of the Indian team was much hyped, given his IPL statistics.
However, his run so far has been nothing short of disastrous, featuring a series loss to Ireland, and two defeats to England, taking India’s winless run to five matches in the format.
For him and the Men in Blue, the stakes could not be higher. A victory would keep the series alive heading into the final T20I, while another defeat would hand England an unassailable lead.
England Eye Series Win
England have controlled the series with disciplined performances in both departments.
Their bowlers have consistently applied pressure on India’s top order, while the batting lineup has successfully capitalised on key moments to stay ahead.
Both sides know that the decisions made before the first ball is bowled could have a major impact on the outcome of this crucial encounter.
