Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson will open the innings
Team India’s opening pair will be very explosive in the first match against England. On one side, Abhishek Pandey will be there, while on the other side, Sanju Samson will be seen.

Both are explosive batsmen and will change the map of the match in a few overs.
Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Verma will take command after this

Had played innings. In such a situation, it has to be seen whether Suryakumar Yadav himself comes at number three or gives more chances to Tilak Verma. But it is certain that they will play at number three or four. After this Nitish Kumar Reddy and Hardik Pandya will come. According to the situation in the match, it will be decided who will go first and who will go later. Apart from this, the team has another aggressive batsman in the form of Rinku Singh, who has the ability to take the match out of any situation. He is also sure to be in the playing eleven.
Mohammed Shami is making a comeback
Akshar Patel will be in the team as a spin all-rounder. He has also been made the vice-captain for this series. Therefore, it is certain that he will also play. Varun Chakraborty will be seen playing the role of her partner. Varun Chakraborty has been bowling amazingly for some time now and he will look like a match winner for Team India. If we talk about two fast bowlers, then Arshdeep Singh will be seen there along with Mohammed Shami. Mohammed Shami is returning to Team India after a long time. He has also been selected for the Champions Trophy. In such a situation, this will be his fitness test in a way. It will be important to see what kind of bowling they do.
