England vs India Prediction: India to start the series on a positive note

After a hard-fought victory in the last Test game between India and England, the English men will turn their heads to the smallest format in cricket. Who will come out on top and who will be victorious in the first of the three-game series? 

England has done wonderfully in the test game with the help of Buttler and Root. Jos Buttler is going to lead three lions in this form and it will be interesting to see how it pans out. He is the go-to guy for the majority of the runs for England. Malan is back in the side and will be looking to prove a point. The English team is also preparing for the World Cup which is just a few months away and winning against a good Indian side will give them confidence.

Jos Buttler (C and wk), Jason Roy, Dawid Malan, Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, Chris Jordan, David Willey, Reece Topley, Tymal Mills, Matthew Parkinson.

India lost the test game which was in their hand for the majority of the time. Now with a new format comes new responsibilities. The team is changed and captain Rohit is back to lead the side. India recently won the tournament against Ireland recently. The Indian side looks formidable in this shorter version of the game and will be looking to get to a great start to the tournament. 

Rohit Sharma (C), Ishan Kishan (wk), Sanju Samson, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Deepak Hooda, Dinesh Karthik, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Harshal Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal, Avesh Khan.

The pitch will assist the batters with the amount of pace and bounce it has. The toss-winning skipper will look to bowl on this pitch first and then chase down the target. We are expecting a high-scoring game in which India will come on top. 

• India to win for 2.24;
• Total Over 299.5 for 1.616;
• W1 After First 6 Overs (2Way) for 1.8
