IND vs ENG 4th T20I: India and England are set to clash in the fourth T20I of their five-match series at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on January 31. India currently leads the series 2-1, but England's recent 26-run victory in the third T20I has kept the contest alive.

The outcome of this match will be crucial - India can seal the series with a win, while England will look to level things up and set up a decider. England's batting revival in the last game was led by Jos Buttler and Ben Duckett.

Whereas, their bowlers, especially Brydon Carse, made it difficult for India to chase 172. Meanwhile, India will be banking on the likes of Abhishek Sharma, their leading run-scorer in the series, and Varun Chakravarthy, who has been lethal with the ball, to deliver a match-winning performance.
