Analysis
India have had a spectacular T20 World Cup 2024 with new stars emerging every match to take the team over the finish line. Indian batting has gradually improved as the tournament progresses. On the bowling front, the trio of Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav, and Jasprit Bumrah have regularly picked wickets and will be India’s biggest asset against a big-hitting England side.
On the other hand, England have returned to their best after a slow start to the World Cup which included a no-result and a defeat. The opening pair of Jos Buttler and Phil have looked imperious through the tournament but the other batters in the lineup haven’t had many top-notch performances. With the ball, Adil Rashid has been England’s best bowler with his crafty yet accurate leg-spin while the pacers have supported him well.
