"The hosts and defending champions will set a target for England to chase. Captain Harry Brook put India in to bat after winning the toss. India's captain Suryakumar Yadav said he'd hoped to bat first anyway and so was happy with the outcome."
"Abhishek Sharma and wicket keeper Sanju Samson, the hero with the bat in India's last game against the West Indies, are the first to take the field, giving India left-handed and right-handed firepower from the start. Samson starts in fine form, knocking Jofra Archer for a total of 11 runs, a four, a six, a single, before another quick single from Sharma to close out the first over."
