- IND vs ENG: After the embarrassing defeat in the first T20I, captain Jos Buttler has dropped this star player from the playing eleven. While this dreaded bowler has been included in the team.
IND vs ENG: In the first T20I played in Kolkata, the hosts defeated the visiting team by 7 wickets and started the series with a great victory. On the Eden Gardens pitch, which is considered favorable for batting, except for captain Josh Butler, no English batsman was able to play big innings, due to which they had to pay the price by losing. A few hours before the second T20I match, Josh Butler made big changes in the entire team, and the English captain announced his final eleven for the second T20 to be played between India and England (IND vs ENG) on January 25.
This player got a chance
Gus Atkinson, who proved to be a flop in the first T20I between India and England (IND vs ENG), has been dropped from the second T20I match and in his place, the team management has included Brydon Carse in the team playing XI. Brydon has played a total of four T20I matches for the English team so far, in which he has taken 6 wickets. Let us tell you that Brydon Carse is a left-arm fast bowler, he made his debut against New Zealand on 30 August 2023. Brydon has played 5 Tests and 19 ODIs for England apart from T20Is. At the same time, wicketkeeper Jamie Smith has been included as the 12th player.
Gus Atkinson was ejected
England’s fast bowler Gus Atkinson proved to be very expensive in the first T20I between India and England (IND vs ENG). He conceded 38 runs in 2 overs, while he could not take a single wicket during this time. Sanju had hit 22 runs in a single over of Atkinson. Let us tell you that this 27-year-old bowler has played 4 T20I matches for England, in which he has taken 6 wickets, but during this time he has also conceded runs at a very poor economy of 11.26. This is the reason why captain Josh Butler had to include Brydon in the playing XI by dropping Atkinson.
