IND vs ENG Match Prediction - Who will win today’s 2nd T20I match between India and England?

India (IND) and England (ENG) are set to continue their ongoing T20I series with the second T20I at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Saturday, January 25. The hosts won the first T20I of the series by seven wickets in Kolkata and are leading 1-0.

The Men in Blue elected to field first after winning the toss in the series opener and did a good job by bundling England out just for 132. The tourists’ innings were solely constructed by their skipper Jos Buttler, who amassed 68  off 44 and laced his innings with eight boundaries and two sixes. For India, Varun Chakravarthy was the wrecker-in-chief, picking three wickets. Axar Patel, Hardik Pandya, and Arshdeep Singh were also clinical, bagging two wickets each.

Chasing a modest 133, the Indian team was struggling after the dismissals of Sanju Samson (26) and Suryakumar Yadav (0). However, Abhishek Sharma’s attacking intent took the game away from England. Sharma’s knock of 79 off 34 balls, laced with five fours and eight sixes, dismantled the English attack, particularly targeting Mark Wood and Adil Rashid.

MA Chidambaram Stadium Pitch Report

While a T20I at Chennai brings a sense of unknown, the natural trait of the Chepaul track is to assist spin. However, tracks in the early parts of the IPL have been batting-friendly, meaning a batting beauty cannot be ruled out. Recent trends indicate a flat wicket with dew not likely to play a major role. The teams winning the toss prefer batting first here, setting a tough total for their opponents to chase as the track slows down with the game’s progress.

IND vs ENG Probable Best Performers

Probable Best Batter:

Indian wicketkeeper-batter, Sanju Samson could be the best batter in the second T20I against the Three Lions. Samson created history in 2024 by becoming the first and only player to score three centuries in a calendar year. The right-hander looked in good touch in the opener, scoring 26 runs off 20 deliveries, which included a 22-run over against Gus Atkinson. Samson will hope to convert his starts to big scores, like he did in the Bangladesh and South Africa series.

Probable Best Bowler:

India’s mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy had a memorable match in Kolkata, earning the Player of the Match award for his returns of 3/23. The 33-year-old will be happy to bowl at Chepauk, considering his good knowledge and vast playing experience at this venue. With the conditions assisting spinners, Chakravarthy will be India’s prized weapon in this game.
