Even though the ball is gripping a bit, this should be gettable. India were really good in the back 5. Just 35/2

Dhawan was the third opener before the series started. He’s relegated to the fourth option as an opener after just one game... now...hopefully Ishan will get all four games. #IndvEng

India to have a bowl first after the coin lands in skipper Virat Kohli's favor
6: 21 IST, March 14th 2021
India will take on England in the 2nd T20I match of the five-match series. The India vs England 2nd T20I is scheduled to begin at 7:00 PM IST from the Motera Stadium, Ahmedabad on Sunday. The Men In Blue will look to bounce back and level the series after suffering a humiliating defeat against England in the 1st T20I. England won the match by eight wickets and got to India's meager target of 125 in only 15.3 overs. Dawid Malan, who is world number one in T20I cricket, led the chase for England alongside opener Jason Roy.
With Rohit Sharma not in the squad for the 1st T20I, India certainly seemed to lack top-order batting experience. India's top three batsmen got out very early as India were 20-3 after five overs. However, if the top order performs, India should be optimistic heading into the 2nd T20I as Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant looked in good touch in the 1st T20I.
On the other hand, England bowlers were outstanding in the 1st T20I as they restricted India to a very low total. Jofra Archer was once again the best bowler with his figures of 3-23 in his four overs. England will hope that they can continue this form into the 2nd T20I after a disappointing test series against the Indians.
IND vs ENG playing 11 prediction
India: Shikhar Dhawan, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Shardul Thakur, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Yuzvendra Chahal
England: Jos Buttler, Jason Roy, Dawid Malan, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes, Eoin Morgan, Sam Curran, Chris Jordan, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood
