India are taking on England in the fifth and final T20I of the five-match series at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday, February 2. The Men in Blue clinched the series in Pune by registering a 15-run win to take an unassailable 3-1 lead. They will be keen to end the series with a 4-1 scoreline. For England, they would like to end the five-match series on a winning note.

India found themselves in trouble more than once in Pune but found players to bail them out. Batting first, they slipped to 12-3 after two overs. However, Shivam Dube and Hardik Pandya cracked rapid fifties to take the Men in Blue past 180. In the chase, England hammered 62 in the powerplay. However, Ravi Bishnoi (3-28), Harshit Rana (3-33) and Varun Chakravarthy (2-28) bowled India to victory.

There are still some concerns for the hosts heading into the Mumbai T20I. Skipper Suryakumar Yadav has been woefully short of runs, while Sanju Samson also has had a forgettable series, constantly troubled by the short ball. There are also question marks over Mohammed Shami, who has played only one game.

Today's IND vs ENG pitch report

It's a red soil pitch. Nick Knight reckons there are a few cracks, but not much grass near the full length early. There's some grass cover around the good length area, so there might be some movement for the pace bowlers, he reckons. Knight wants England’s pacers to target the stumps a lot more.
