After relaxing a bit, Indian team alongside Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have landed in Lucknow to participate in the upcoming IND vs ENG World Cup clash. To note, Rohit Sharma and Co. had recently defeated New Zealand in Dharamshala.
After the match, the Indian side took a break as they visited places in Himachal Pradesh to rejuvenate themselves. However, the break is over now as the Men in Blue will now focus on the defending champs England.
Meanwhile, Virat Kohli on October 25 (Wednesday) uploaded a photo on his Instagram handle with him sitting inside a plane. Kohli on his Instagram handle wrote ‘Off to Lucknow’
IND vs ENG will be played on October 29 in Lucknow
To note, Rohit Sharma and Co. have already won five games in the World Cup. The Men in Blue will be eyeing their sixth win in the upcoming IND vs ENG World Cup match in Lucknow. As mentioned above, India last defeated New Zealand in the marquee event. On the other hand, England have so failed to make any impact in the tournament.
However, the defending champs cannot be taken lightly as they possess a deadly batting line-up. On the other hand, captain Rohit alongside Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill have been in decent touch with the bat. In the bowling department, Mohammed Shami bamboozled the Kiwi bowling line-up in the last match.
Jasprit Bumrah and Siraj have also been amongst the wickets. However, the spinners are expected to play a crucial part on a sluggish track of Lucknow in the next match. As a result, the likes of Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav might play a big role for India in the next match.
