IND vs ENG: England can play this many spin bowlers against India, former legend made a big revelation
The T20 World Cup semi-final match between India and England will be played in Guyana. India vs England (Image Credit- Twitter X) The second semi-final match of the ongoing T20 World Cup will be played today on 27 June between India and England (IND vs ENG) at the Providence Stadium in Guyana. This match is going to be very important from the point of view of the Indian team, because in this match the Men in Blue will want to avenge their 10-wicket defeat at the hands of England in the semi-finals of the last T20 World Cup. However, before the start of this match, there is a continuous discussion by the former players about the planning of both the teams. And now in this episode, a big statement has come from the former all-rounder of England cricket team Paul Collingwood. Collingwood says that England can play 4 spin bowlers against India in this match. A big statement from Paul Collingwood came out Let us tell you that while talking in the Star Sports press room before the semi-final match between India and England, former captain Paul Collingwood said – Spin bowling is like a golden opportunity for England in this match, especially Adil Rashid. The special thing about Rashid is that his bowling is difficult to predict. He is capable of turning the ball in both directions. Indian batsmen usually play spin very well, but the way Adil Rashid is bowling at the moment, we just have to see and wait to see what the condition of the pitch is. There is a possibility that England may field four spin bowlers in this match. Obviously, apart from Rashid, there is Moeen Ali and Liam Livingstone, who are all-rounders and can bowl leg spin and off spin. You know that if the wicket is too dry, England can also make Will Jack bowl. Adil Rashid is at the peak of his game and this is the beauty of the World Cup.
IND vs ENG Semifinal: These 4 bowlers will bowl in the powerplay against England, see the big plan!
IND vs ENG, T20 WC Semifinal: The second semi-final match of T20 World Cup 2024 between India and England will be played on June 27 (8:00 PM IST) at Providence Stadium, Guyana. Team India (Photo Source: X/Twitter) IND vs ENG, T20 WC Semifinal: The second semi-final match of the T20 World Cup 2024 between India and England will be played on June 27 (8:00 PM IST) at Providence Stadium, Guyana. But in this match, England captain Jos Buttler is standing like a big wall in front of Team India’s victory. Actually, in the second semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2022, England and India clashed at the Adelaide Oval on November 10, 2022. England emerged victorious in that match thanks to the brilliant performance of Jos Buttler and Alex Hales. Now Team India is afraid that Butler, who played a brilliant innings of 83 runs in the last match, may become the reason for their defeat in this semi-final too. Butler is no less than a big threat for Team India. Therefore, Team India’s bowlers must be making plan after plan to get him out. Ravichandran Ashwin gave Team India the mantra to take Jos Buttler’s wicket In IPL, Ashwin and Jos Butler play for the same team i.e. Rajasthan Royals. So both of them must be aware of each other’s weaknesses. Now Ashwin, keeping the country ahead of the franchise, has told how to get Jos Butler out in the semi-finals. Let’s read what advice he has given on his YouTube channel- “If a spinner like Akshar Patel bowls to Jos Buttler and Salt, we can get 2 wickets. He can bowl a great arm ball and keep the ball slow. The special thing is that he can also slide it from the hand. That is, Akshar has 3 weapons, which will be in his favor. “In the first over, the batsman will try to settle himself and build a rhythm. In such a situation, when their intent is low, these 3 balls of Akshar can hit the pad. Jos Buttler has low trajectory and Salt has trouble playing on the backfoot. In such a situation, Akshar is the best option to bowl the first over.” “Whenever Jos Buttler faces Axar Patel during the powerplay, he often gets him out. So it is important to use Axar. This World Cup belongs to Axar, even though he has not done wonders with the ball and bat, whenever India’s match has turned towards victory, Axar Patel has been that important person 3 times.” IND vs ENG Semifinal: Which bowlers should bowl in the powerplay against England “I would say, Arshdeep Singh should bowl the first over. If the ball swings, then the second over should probably go to Jasprit Bumrah. Bumrah has troubled Jos Buttler a lot to set the tone. If the ball doesn’t swing, then there is a good chance and you should straightaway put the ball in Axar’s hands. If the ball swings, then I would also like to give the ball to Hardik Pandya so that…
