IND vs ENG Preview
India made a brilliant start to the series as they won the first two matches and took a 2-0 lead by winning the first two games.

However, the Suryakumar Yadav-led side bounced back in the fourth T20I at MCA in Pune and managed to win the game to take an unassailable lead in the series.
The match at the Wankhede Stadium will not bear much significance to the result of the series. While India might look to make a few changes and test their bench strength, England will be eager to finish on a high and carry the momentum to the three match ODI series. With both the teams gearing up for the crucial contest, the fans and the viewers will be expecting to witness a high-octane clash.
