The Indian team, which was undefeated so far in the World Cup, got two days' rest after the match played against New Zealand in Dharamsala. The team players have now finished their vacation and moved toward their next mission.

 

India will face defending champions England at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Stadium here on Sunday, for which the team reached Lucknow late on Wednesday evening. The England team will reach here on Friday. Rohit's Army is the only team to have won all five matches in the tournament. One more win will almost certainly ensure their passage to the semi-finals.

 

condition of the Indian team

On the other hand, the performance of the English team has been disappointing. Out of five matches, it has faced defeat in four. The Indian team now has to play a total of four matches. Rohit's team will face England on October 29 in Lucknow, Sri Lanka on November 2, and then South Africa on November 5 in Kolkata. Apart from this, India's last league match will be against the Netherlands on November 12 in Bengaluru.

 

Team India is on top in the points table, but to reach the semi-finals it will have to win two of these matches. However, the net run rate of the hosts is also excellent.

 

Rohit's army will take revenge on the British

The fast bowling attack has been strengthened with the inclusion of Mohammed Shami in the Indian team before the important match against England. Shami has an excellent record in the World Cup. In the important match against England in the 2019 World Cup, Shami bowled brilliantly and took five wickets, but despite this, the team had to face defeat.

 

In this match, Jonny Bairstow played a century, due to which England scored a huge score of 338 runs in the stipulated 50 overs. India also made a good start in response to the big target. Rohit Sharma scored a quick century, but even after this, the Indian team could not reach the target.

 

If we talk about this World Cup, at present every player on the team is in good form. Rohit's army has impressed in every department from batting to bowling. In such a situation, he has a golden opportunity to avenge the defeat from England.

 

The Indian team will start preparing today

The team, under the leadership of captain Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravid, will start preparations for the match against England from Thursday at the B ground of Ekana Stadium. This is the first time that the Indian cricket team will stay in Lucknow for four days. On the first day, the team's practice session will be from 6 to 9 p.m.
