England Name Playing XI For First T20I Against India
Captain Jos Buttler: England have announced their playing XI for the first T20I against India, starting on Wednesday here at Eden Gardens. The game will mark the beginning of the Brendon McCullum white ball era for the side.
Phil Salt, who rose to prominence for his exploits during the 2024 IPL season, will keep wicket and open the batting along with Nottinghamshire's Ben Duckett. Captain Jos Buttler will bat at three while Jofra Archer and Mark Wood will lead the pace attack.
McCullum, the promoter of Bazball cricket in the longest format of the game, steps into white-ball cricket with the five-match T20I series followed by three ODIs against India and leading up to the Champions Trophy in Pakistan and Dubai in February-March.
