England and India will face-off in three T20Is and as many ODIs over the next 11 days, with the first T20I to be played in Southampton on Thursday, July 7.
England have made a glorious start to their home summer, having won each of their four Tests in a resounding manner, with the most recent coming against India at Edgbaston to square the series 2-2. The limited-overs side meanwhile, whitewashed Netherlands in a three-match ODI series, and notched up a world-record ODI total of 498/4 while at it.
Much like the Test setup, the limited-overs side too, begins its new chapter under Jos Buttler with Eoin Morgan – the pioneer of England’s white-ball rise and the 2019 World Cup winner – calling it quits from international cricket last month.

India meanwhile, would be pleased with the return of regular skipper Rohit Sharma, who missed the Edgbaston Test after having tested positive for Covid-19 last week. All-format regulars Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja, Rishabh Pant, Jasprit Bumrah and Shreyas Iyer too, will return to the fold after the T20I series opener at The Rose Bowl on Thursday. They defeated Ireland 2-0 in a fairly closely contested series in Dublin last month, with impressive performances from young guns Deepak Hooda and Umran Malik among others. Wins in practice games against Derbyshire and Northamptonshire recently also presented great signs with notable individual performances.
