The high-voltage five-match T20I series between India and England is set to kick off at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Both teams will aim to secure a win in the opening game to set a positive tone for the series. The first match marks the beginning of an intense battle between two cricketing giants in the shortest format.

India will be led by their dynamic batter Suryakumar Yadav, who has been in scintillating form in recent times. His leadership will be tested as he marshals the Men in Blue against a formidable English side. Meanwhile, England will be captained by experienced wicketkeeper-batter Jos Buttler, whose aggressive batting and strategic acumen have been pivotal for the team’s success.

This series holds historical significance as it is the first T20I contest between India and England on Indian soil since 2021. Back then, the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad hosted all the matches in a closely contested series that thrilled cricket fans.
