The T20I series between India and England is already underway with the first game ending in no result due to rain playing spoilsport after only one innings was completed on Wednesday, July 01 at the Riverside Ground in Chester-le-Street. The ongoing series is a challenge for Shreyas Iyer, the newly appointed captain of the Indian team, as he recently took over the reins from the T20 World Cup-winning captain Suryakumar Yadav. With the core group remaining the same, India look like a strong unit on paper.
England, meanwhile, are playing a T20I series after a long time and had a very small turnaround time for the same following their 1-2 loss against New Zealand in the three Tests. For the Harry Brook-led side, the ongoing series is the first assignment after the two teams had met in Mumbai for the T20 World Cup semi-final, where the Men in Blue tasted success in a last-over thriller. England, however, will be looking to get over the demons of the past and try to bag a crucial series win under their belt since they are also playing at home.
Here are three batters to watch out for in the ENG vs IND T20I series:
Shreyas Iyer
Shreyas Iyer comes into this series looking to get a major monkey off his back. In his first series as newly appointed skipper of the side, India were whitewashed 2-0 by a spirited Ireland side. Iyer saw poor returns in both innings, with scores of 10 and 3, respectively. At his best, Iyer is a feared middle-order batter, capable of taking on pacers and smothering spin bowling. With a need for runs and wins under his belt, he will be raring to go in this series.
Harry Brook
England’s skipper has established himself as one of the most prominent all-format batting talents and has shown, across formats, a stellar ability to put bowlers under pressure and score all around the ground. With a chip on his shoulder coming off an underwhelming Test series against New Zealand with the bat, Brook will be raring to get going and lead his team from the front. He scored a stellar 51-ball century in the T20 World Cup against Pakistan on a wicket where most batters struggled to score freely.
Ishan Kishan
Ishan Kishan has had a dramatic turnaround in his national team prospects in the last few months. The southpaw worked his way up the domestic circuits once more and found himself in the reckoning for a recall, with India needing an attacking batter at number 3. What followed was a stellar T20 World Cup, where he scored 317 runs at a strike rate of 193.29. He currently sits as the number 1-ranked T20I batter and has become a vital cog in India’s T20 machine.
