The fourth match of the T20 series between India and England will be played from 7 pm today at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Motera. Virat and his company will look to make a series draw in this game by winning it anyhow. However Indian team has to deal with various permutations and combinations in order to seal a winning 11 in this game.
After the defeat in the third T20, captain Virat Kohli had indicated that he would come down with six bowling options in the fourth T20. In such a situation, one of Rahul Tewatiya or Axar Patel can get a place in the final eleven of the game.
However, this decision is going to be quite difficult for Captain Kohli. Because if India comes to on field with six bowling options, then either of Ishaan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer have to sit out of the eleven.
T Natarajan or Navdeep Saini may get a chance
With this, the Indian captain can also make a change in the fast bowling department. T Natarajan or Navdeep Saini may get a chance in this match in place of Shardul Thakur. Thakur proved to be quite expensive in the third T20.
Captain Virat Kohli made it clear only after the defeat in the third T20 that he would not change the opening pair. He backed Rahul who is in a poor form and called him a champion player.
Expected Playing 11
Indian team- KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli (captain), Ishaan Kishan / Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Akshar Patel, Washington Sundar, Yuzvendra Chahal, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Navdeep Saini.
