When and where to watch India vs England T20I series?
The India vs England T20I series will begin on Friday (March 12) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Because of COVID-19 restrictions, all five India vs England T20Is will take place at the same venue.
The newly rebuilt cricketing venue in Ahmedabad has not hosted a T20I before. However, the stadium recently played host to a couple of India vs England Test matches.
The spin bowlers ruled the roost in those two matches. While some fans felt the pitch favored the spinners, many cricket experts pointed out the massive flaws in the players' batting techniques.
Nevertheless, it seems unlikely a similar deck would be on offer for the five T20Is. Fans can expect some high-scoring contests at the Narendra Modi Stadium during the India vs England series.
India and England are the top two teams in the ICC T20I Rankings. Hence, the India vs England T20I series promises to be an entertaining affair. Here's a look at all the telecast and live streaming details for this series.
