England’with tour of India 2025 will begin this week with the start of the T20I series. The first match of the five-T20I series will be held on Wednesday (January 22) at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata.
England and India last played a T20I against each other last year when they played the semi-final of the T20 World Cup. India completely outplayed England in that match, beating them by 68 runs en route to winning the World Cup.
After that poor run in the World Cup, England drew the T20I series against Australia before winning the series in the West Indies. The Jos Buttler-led side will now be looking for a win in the upcoming series as well as their first T20I series win over India since 2014.
India, on the other hand, have looked almost unbeatable in T20Is in recent months. They have not lost a T20I series since Suryakumar Yadav took charge of the team after the World Cup triumph. In their last T20I assignment, India defeated South Africa in their own backyard. With both teams now set to face each other in the first T20I, this is their record in T20Is against each other.
