IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: The prolific Test bowler is finally being tested for white-ball cricket. Yesterday, England also named him in the ODI squad against India.
It will be interesting to see how he copes with the new challenges of a new format. Can he bowl slower deliveries, can he change his lengths as per match situations? Can he keep calm when the batters go after him? All that we will know in a short while.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I 2026: India’s performance so far in the United Kingdom is reminiscent of how they played back in the day in swinging and seaming conditions in cooler climes. Hopefully, today they will play like the number one T20I team in the world, like the world champions, like back-to-back world champions! New captain Shreyas Iyer must be perplexed. This is not what he would have expected for sure.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I 2026: Someone falls sick at the top of the order! Sooryavanshi will be slotted in and nobody will complain. Otherwise, how he plays today is quite unfathomable.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I 2026: “I think he’s fitted in very, very well. I think if you follow the boys on Instagram, there’s already a lot of photos that have been posted, you know, with him especially.
“And, you know, just the way the guys have welcomed him, I think at the nets as a 15-year-old at the international stage, it can be intimidating. But just the couple of nets we’ve had, it’s been very impressive. And, we’re all excited to see how he goes. And when he gets an opportunity, I’m pretty sure he’ll be ready. But in terms of coming into the squad and fitting in, it’s been very smooth,” Morne Morkel, India bowling coach, added.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I 2026: “I think we just need to also respect the fact that we’ve got the number one batter, or we had our number one batter in T20 cricket, Abhishek Sharma [only recently dethroned by Kishan]. You know, Sanju was the player of the T20 World Cup. He [Samson] had a great IPL. So I think as a coaching staff, it’s only fair to show the faith and back your players. Yes, there’s a young man knocking on the door, and it’s exciting, but I reckon for not just those two players at the top, but for the rest of the group, it’s a good sign that we show that we back you guys. It’s about putting performances on the board. That is key. But also, if you look at it, we also don’t want to think too much and bat other players out of positions,” Morkel said ahead of the second T20I against England on Friday.
