India vs England, 4th T20I: Former India cricketer R. Ashwin, who is a well-respected figure in the cricketing circles, has predicted India's playing XI for the 4th T20I at Bristol. As per Ashwin, he expects a change in the side that played the last game. Ashwin wants Sanju Samson back in the side and he reckons Vaibhav Sooryavanshi could be dropped.
‘They will change the playing XI’
"I would be very surprised if the team goes into tomorrow's match without making any changes. Will it happen? Highly doubted. I think they will change the playing XI again," Ashwin said on his YouTube channel.
Meanwhile, England pacer Jofra Archer has warned Sooryavanshi ahead of the 4th T20I as well.
"Well yeah, I think it's even now. But we've got another two games left and it could go either way, so may the best man win" - Jofra Archer on his battle with IPL teammate Sooryavanshi
Can India Bounce Back?
There is no doubt that India have the side to make a comeback. The Shreyas Iyer-led side would be low-on-confidence after having lost all their games in the tour. He would be desperate to turn things around. England have taken a 2-0 lead in the five-match series and now India would have to win both their games to level the series which will not be an easy task.
India's Probable XI as per Ashwin: Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson, Ishan Kishan (wk), Shreyas Iyer (c), Tilak Varma, Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Harshit Rana, Prince Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Varun Chakaravarthy
