1st T-20 - Eng won the toss and  won convincingly.
2nd T-20 - Ind won the toss and again one-sided game
3rd T-20- - Eng won the toss and duh...

This Eng vs Ind T-20 series setting a weird template. Strategy from the both captains is, let's win the toss and ball first, easy peasy  Grin . 3 games and we are yet to watch any real contest, let's hope this pattern ends here.
The pattern continues, Virat Kohli will be praying to win the toss so that he will be able to chase and level the series. The toss is a major part and the pitch might be easier to chase at night. During the IPL it will be interesting to see whether the pattern continues and most probably if matches are played here i will pick the team chasing  Grin.
That's a good prediction for selecting odds. Today the fourth T20 is taking place on the same Narendra Modi Stadium. With this match we can get into the conclusion about the odds selection. You could try betting on today's match once after the toss. Team chasing will be the winner.

Yup, team India will be trying their best to win the match while the Eng is slthe strongest will not let their winning streak out of their hand. One day left for the 4th ODI and is there any update about the team selection by officials or atleast predictions?

Nothing is confirmed as of yet, especially regarding the slots of opening batsmen. Among  Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Shikhar Dhawan and Ishan Kishan, only two can be included in the playing XI. Indications are that Kohli/Shastri will stick with Rohit-Rahul for the 4th T20I. Ishan Kishan will be either dropped, or demoted to the 3rd position. If Kishan gets the opportunity to open the batting, then Suryakumar Yadav can be included in the XI.

I hope the next match will not be one sided. The players have played 3 T20s in the same field. My guess is that the players on both teams understand the condition of the pitch well. If any team will be able to   a target of 170-180 runs by batting first, they will be a possibility of winning the fourth match. But I hope England will win the next match. Apart from Kohli, no Indian top-order batsman seems to be in form. It is difficult to win a match relying only on middle order batsmen.

IMO, it was just a coincidence. Second ODI would have won by India even if they were batting first. Ishan Kishan and Virat Kohli were in terrific form and if India was batting first they could have made a total of close to 200. Sam Curran opened the bowling for England, and Mark Wood was absent. Also, Tom Curran conceded plenty of runs.

@JSRAW considering the next match’s importance I doubt team India will give him a chance in the playing 11, but if they lose the next match then he’ll definitely be included in the last match. Furthermore team India’s captain Virat has also thrown his weight behind KL Rahul, hence I don’t think he’ll be dropped for the remaining matches.

Yeah.. Kohli is famous for his nepotism nowadays. IMO, it will be unfair if Surya Kumar Yadav is given just one opportunity and then dropped if he fails to score big. This has happened to many of the younger Indian players. They deserve at least 2-3 games. If they have only one game at hand, then the pressure will be enormous and in all probability they will fail.

And at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi, Afghanistan seems to be cruising towards an easy win against the hapless Zimbabweans. With 3.3 overs remaining, Zimbabwe needs another 75 runs (5 wickets remaining). Scoring at 10 runs per over is very difficult, especially when you have a bowler of the calibre of Rashid Khan in the opposite team.

He didn't even get chance to bat and you are already speculating about his failure or if he can face English bowlers or not lol. At least let him face some balls first or took guard.  Grin

I like KL Rahul in shorter format and he's been a gun batter for India in T-20 for quite some time and his IPL record is excellent but Surya Kumar Yadav also got terrific season so it was pretty bad from his perspective.

I think Rahul was given enough opportunities and now the slot should go to someone else. He scored a total of 1 run in three matches so far. There are other deserving players in the squad (especially Surya Kumar Yadav) and these guys deserve a chance to be in the playing XI rather than someone who is having scores of 1,0,0 in consecutive matches. Just two matches remain now. If the management don't give a chance to the younger players now, then they will feel demoralized.

Anyone watching the T20 match between Afghanistan and Zimbabwe? The match is not available in any TV channels (in India) and I am watching it through FanCode App. Afghanistan made a total of 198/5 (at one point, it looked like they may end up with 220-230, but lost too many wickets in the end). Rahmanullah Gurbaz made 87 from 45 balls and Asghar Afghan made 55. Advantage is with Afghans now, as the Zimbabwean batting lineup is very inexperienced.

He faced more better bowlers in IPL and knocked everyone with his bat for sure so facing the English bowler is not really a big task for him.Moreover the series is happening in India so it can be better for him to get a chance rather than overseas if the selectors are afraid of he is not yet ready to play on other seaming conditions.And also we need some changes in the bowling unit for sure.

KL Rahul wasted too many chances and I guess at least in the next match the chance will be given to Surya Kumar Yadav who is extraordinary player for very long time. I though in this match he will get a chance but I was wrong. Anyhow Eng dominated the match completely again and it seems they are in favorite now to win this t20 series in my opinion.

Rahul remains as one of the best Indian batsmen in the T20 format. His performance during IPL 2020 was nothing short of spectacular. Surya Kumar Yadav is a promising batsmen, but I don't know whether he is ready for the big stage yet. I don't want him to end up like Sanju Samson. He will be facing Archer/Jordan/Wood, who are some of the best bowlers in the international cricket right now. A couple of failed chances may destroy his confidence.

Good thing for team India is that Virat has found is form back and this will be an advantage for the next 2 matches to them. Also, any team batting second has only won by far and that too with 7-8 wickets. So, the chasing on this pitch is easy and no team has scored anything more than 170 yet. Buttler was just awesome and with this win England are now 2-1 ahead in the series.

Virat is back in form and he has got two consecutive 50s. But personal milestones are useless as long as the team is unable to win. Rohit and Rahul are not in great form, and that is a major issue for the Indians. When they are batting first, they always lose crucial wickets early and score runs really slow, and that means that Kohli and the middle-lower order batsmen are not able to get enough runs in the depth overs to get the total to 160-170 mark.

England is going to win this match and that means that they will be ahead 2-1 in this series. Another 30 runs needed from 5 overs, with 8 wickets in hand. Spinners have got both the wickets till now. Dawid Malan fell to Washington Sundar, while Yuzvendra Chahal got the wicket of Jason Roy. And that is why I am surprised why the captain didn't bowled them out earlier. He recalled them only when the match was firmly in England's grasp.

156 against a powerful English side is way too low and I knew that England had a better chance at winning this one, but Buttler is making it look way too easy. He is playing like Kohli and will probably reach the 100 mark at this rate.

Smart move promoting him up the order. Bhuvi and Sundar bowled well while Chahal's form has gone down the drain. This match is pretty much done at this point.

So KL got another chance (Was expecting something else but okay) and debutant Surya kumar yadav had to sit out because Rohit is back. He must be feeling bad but i'm sure he will get lot more chances in the future.


EDIT
Luls Bowled!! KL Rahul - Long walk of shame-
Surya Kumar Yadav will be giving his chance in the next match as KL Rahul is struggling and now collected a pair, one run in 3 innings when there are young talents waiting to get an opportunity. The team chasing has all the advantage and i am expecting England to win the game unless India is able to post above 180 runs.

Edit:

Rohit Sharma is back in the pavilion.

Ishan Kishan is gone.
157 runs target.

Big responsibility on Pandya's shoulders, he's 5th bowler and Indian team don't have luxury of 6th bowler. Score is not big so if by any chance any bowler is having bad day then this strategy is going to bite back.
England scored 102 runs in 12 overs by losing only 2 wickets. The match is completely in England's possession. England needs only 55 runs from 48 balls. Jos Buttler is playing just great. 63 runs off 37 balls, and still unbeaten. Apart from Virat Kohli, no Indian player has been able to perform well. The performance of Indian batsmen was very poor today.
