IND vs ENG LIVE: ICC T20 World Cup 2022: Jos Buttler-led England are covering all bases ahead of the T20 World Cup 2022 semi-finals against in-form India on Thursday.

The premier India batter has troubled majority of the teams with his ability to manoeuvre around the crease and hit the ball around the park. However, to stop his flow of runs, premier England players like Liam Livingstone, Adil Rashid, Sam Curran and Ben Stokes were seen making the most of their ground-fielding players.
Interestingly, the ground-fielding practice was divided into multiple parts. The English players were first seen collecting the lowly thrown ball and throwing it back to the stumps. The group later came together to get their co-ordination right in order to make the most of any run-out chances in the match.

What can be expected in the IND vs ENG clash? It will be the clash of equals as India take on England in a red-hot semi-final affair of the T20 World Cup 2022. The Men in Blue, however, hold a slight upper hand in the shortest format as they have won 12 matches in comparison to the 10 games that England have won.
- Indian batters have recorded better individual performances in T20 World Cup.
- Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav will be the key in the batting department for India.
- Arshdeep Singh will look to provide early breakthroughs while Bhuvneshwar Kumar will look to control the run flow.
- India will, however, be wary of Jos Buttler’s batting, Mark Wood’s pace and Sam Curran’s all-round abilities.
