IND Vs ENG, 5th T20I: England Elect To Bowl First In Mumbai | Playing XI Details Inside

IND Vs ENG, 5th T20I: England have won the toss and elect to bowl first. Read below for Playing XI's.

IND Vs ENG, 5th T20I: England have won the coin toss and elect to bowl first, as both sides lock-horns in the 5th T20I at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. India have already won the series, and will be looking to close the last fixture with a win tonight.

The pitch at the venue has historically proven to be a batting paradise for players in T20I's, and if things go right, there will be some assistance for bowlers in the 1st innings.

Dew will be a huge factor and the side batting 2nd can have a huge advantage at their disposal.

As the outcome of the fixture will have no impact on the series-winner, both sides have made couple of changes. England have replaced last game's hero Saqib Mahmood with Mark Wood, whereas, India brings in Mohammad Shami in place of Arshdeep Singh.

Here's What The Two Captains Said During Toss

Jos Buttler (England Captain):

"Yeah we did, we played good cricket in patches. We are trying to enforce the style of play, we want to and win crucial moments in the game. Yeah, good vibe around the team. This is a good venue to play cricket in any format. It is usually a good wicket. We are going to chase."

"We got one change, Mark Wood comes in and four impact subs are Rehan Ahmed, Saqib Mahmood, Jamie Smith, Gus Atkinson. Yeah, both teams have high-octane batting, this is the venue for us."

Suryakumar Yadav (India Captain):

"Not really. We wanted to bat first today. It looks a good wicket and there is a nice breeze around. Hopefully, there won't be any dew. I just saw. We took the right to get to Wankhede and there were a lot of guys. Hopefully, a packed crowd tonight. That's what we want boys raising their hands. Expressing themselves and that's what we want."

"The thing is if you want to play that brand of cricket, you are going to fail but stick to the process. We have one change. Mohammed Shami comes in place of Arshdeep Singh."
