IND vs ENG 5th T20I: Preview, Pitch, Weather Report, Probable Playing 11, Streaming Details: The fifth and final T20 International between India and England is set to be played on February 2, 2025, at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, with the start time at 7:00 PM IST. Currently, India leads the series 3-1, having won the first, second, and last T20I, while England took the third.
India looks to end on a high note with assistance from home conditions and recent form. The credit goes to Suryakumar Yadav for captaining his team, but also with big contributions from players like Tilak Varma and Varun Chakravarthy. Jos Buttler-led England will aim to go back home with a victory from the series, given their explosive batting line-up and pacers.
Pitch Report of IND vs ENG 5th T20I
The Wankhede Stadium has been known for a batting surface with consistent bounce and shorter boundaries that have often brought high-scoring encounters. On the flip side, as the innings progress, spinners may get a little nibble from the surface. With dew being a factor later in the day, any team winning the toss will look to chase as the safer option.
Weather Forecast
The weather in Mumbai on this match day is expected to be bright and sunny, with temperatures hovering between 19 and 30 degrees Celsius. Moderate humidity will prevail, and there isn’t a very credible forecast of light showers to bother the match. Therefore, it will be a floodlight match without interruptions.
