India vs England: India is about to kick off their 5-match T20 series against rivals England on the 22nd of January in the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. While it’s been long since England has revealed their squad for the tour, the updates on India’s squad are yet to be declared.
The second match is scheduled for January 25, followed by the third on January 28, the fourth on January 31, and the final game of the T20 bilateral series on February 2. All matches in the IND vs. ENG T20I series are scheduled to begin at 7:00 PM IST.
For England, they have had an exemplary record in the shortest format as they were also the champions in the 2022 T20 World Cup; however, they have faltered while facing India for over a decade. India remains undefeated in limited-overs cricket against England at home, as they have totally been invincible in the subcontinent, especially in the past decade.
Head-to-head Record of India vs. England in T20Is
When it comes to T20 records, the result seems eminent for both sides, as the two favourites of world cricket have clashed on 24 occasions. India has won on 13 occasions, while England has also claimed 11 wins. This is undoubtedly one of the closest rivalries in the history of the format, while lots of excitement and thrill are to be followed.
In matches played in India, the hosts have won 6 games, while England has secured 5 victories.
When India travelled to the Britishers island, the hosts were slightly benefitted with 5 wins over India’s 4 wins.
At neutral venues, India holds the upper hand with 3 victories compared to England’s single win.
Ever since their last encounter in a bilateral T20 series in 2022, India will feature against England in the format for the first time in this upcoming series from January 2025. This time around, India will not have the services of veterans Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant, and such likely big players who would reduce their workload before the Champions Trophy.
