By defeating West Indies, India takes a grand entry into the semifinals, which will be played against England on March 5 in Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium. Following the IND vs ENG head to head record, India and England have met 29 times, with India winning 17 matches and England 12.
Now, if you’re planning your fantasy team for IND vs ENG? Here you’ll find Dream11 team tips, player picks, captain and vice-captain choices and budget picks, along with an analysis of team’s current form ahead of the T20 World Cup semifinal.
For Team India, Abhishek didn’t perform well; he’s known for his flop shows throughout. Fans and experts have high expectations from Abhishek Sharma, given his unlucky form, if he is included in India’s playing XI against England. Can Abhishek Sharma break his flop show’s record in this crucial semifinal against England?
If we talk about Harry Book side, according to their T20 World Cup 2026 campaign, England’s batting unit looks dangerous throughout the tournament, although their openers have not yet clicked together. That should worry Indian fans because Jos Buttler and Phil Salt are too good to stay quiet for long. On a batting-friendly surface like Wankhede, and in a high-pressure semifinal, they will be eager to make a big impact.
