England vs India cricket is an epic contest that has produced some of the most memorable moments in the history of Test match cricket. The two sides have faced each other on 252 occasions across all formats. England are leading the head-to-head tie in Test matches but India hold a slight advantage in one-day internationals and Twenty20 internationals.

With a series win over England on the line, India need to step up to the plate and deliver another stellar performance in the fourth and final game of their Paytm T20I Series at Durban’s Kingsmead. The last time the sides met in a T20I in the same venue was during the 2007 ICC T20 World Cup. That match is most remembered for Yuvraj Singh hitting six sixes in a single over off Stuart Broad.

Despite being blown away by Pakistan in their group stage opener and South Africa in the Super Eights, Jos Buttler’s side have shown tremendous character to battle back into each of their games so far this season. This has been due largely to the performances of their bowlers and all-rounders like Stokes, Moeen Ali and Sam Curran who have all played well with both bat and ball.

The batting department however has been a huge let down, with only Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow scoring runs consistently. England have a chance to turn things around but they will need to improve their shot selection in key situations.

Both sides will be hoping for a strong comeback from their respective bowlers, with the spinners having done the most damage to the English batting. Ravindra Jadeja and Ashwin have been a huge threat with the new ball and have kept the batters on their toes.

England’s pace bowlers have been decent but lacked the consistency to be a genuine problem for the Indian batting. They will need to up the ante in the second innings, especially with the bat, if they are to claim a historic victory.
