The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) have officially named its playing XI for the five-match T20I series opener against India, which will be played in Durham on Wednesday, July 1.
The England National Cricket Team looks to make a strong start in the five-match T20I series against the India National Cricket Team and add to the embarrassment that they faced with a 0-2 T20I series defeat in Ireland.
Well, England will be without their star pacers Jofra Archer and Josh Tongue as they were rested after the New Zealand Test series. They picked five specialist batters, three all-rounders, and three bowlers in the combination for the first T20I against India in Durham on Wednesday.
England XI for 1st T20I against India:
Phil Salt, Jos Buttler, Harry Brook (C), Jacob Bethell, Tom Banton, Sam Curran, Will Jacks, Liam Dawson, Saqib Mahmood, Adil Rashid, Luke Wood.
