Pitch Report for Ekana Cricket Stadium:
The pitch at Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow is renowned for being bowler-friendly. This is a great place for spin bowlers to bowl since they get more help than pacers. As a result, the hitters will try to start the inning slowly and pick up speed later. Choosing to bowl first could prove to be a prudent move.
India (IND):
Rohit Sharma (C), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (WK), Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, and Mohammed Shami
England (ENG):
Jonny Bairstow, Dawid Malan, Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler (C & WK), Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali, David Willey, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood, and Gus Atkinson
