The Indian team will also want to end the tour with a clean slate after an ODI white-wash and complete a win-less tour for the opposition. India’s batsmen select themselves with the only question being whether Manoj Tiwary will get a look in ahead of Ravindra Jadeja – whose spin was very effective in the ODIs, and whose batting has also improved. However, the team management may opt to go in with two spinners in R Aswhin and Rahul Sharma, and take in the pure batsman Tiwary instead of the bits-and-pieces Jadeja. Given that Sharma has earned a surprise call-up to the Test squad, it may not be a bad idea to give him a taste of international cricket before he dons the whites.

India would take on England in the 1st T20 match of the England tour of India 2011. The match will be hosted at Kolkata. Schedule time of Match is 20:00 Local Time (14:30 GMT). The match is schedule to be played on Oct 29, 2011. The schedule match would be Day/Night and played under flood light condition.
