India vs England T20 match 2011 - Live

Posted: 26 Aug 2011 10:18 PM PDT


After the disappointing test series, India now plays a T20 match against England before 5-match ODI series. Key players like Sehwag, Zaheer and Ishant Sharma will miss the match as well as rest of the tour. The only good news for Indian fans is that India won the tour match against Kent. Virat Kohli seems to be in a good touch.

Match details:
Only T20I: England v India at Manchester
Date: August 31, 2011
Time: 18:00 local | 17:00 GMT | 22:30 IST

India would like to forget the test matches and start T20/ODI series in a new way. They have recently on the ODI world cup and the players are considered to be more suited for the one-day format. But England are also the T20 world champions. So, we can expect a high competition.
