Scene 2

INDIA VS ENGLAND DATE     : FEB 5 2021       TIME     : 09:30 AM IST       PLACE   : CHENNAI

Scene 3

The weather in Chennai is quite comfortable given the wintery conditions in India.  The mornings would be predominantly hot due to the tropical conditions with temperatures ranging from 24°C-30°C.  High levels of humidity will persist with an expected range of 75%-80%. The winds would be blowing at moderate speeds affecting the direction of deliveries.

Scene 4

The pitch at Chepauk or MA Chidambaram Stadium is always a spinner-friendly pitch.  This pitch holds a lot of history as India registered their maiden victory against the same team they play this time, England.  Due to the humid conditions, the pitch at times also favours the pacers.

Scene 5

Team INDIA  Expected XI:  Virat Kohli (C), Rishabh Pant (wk), Jasprit Bumrah, Ravichandran Ashwin, Hardik Pandya, Washington Sundar, Mohammad Siraj, Rohit Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane, Cheteshwar Pujara, Ishant Sharma India's win against Australia is deemed a heroic feat as they were not only able to capture fortress Gabba in Brisbane 32 years of it being undefeated but also managed to retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy for the third year in a row. After the heroics in Australia, India is now considered a gold mine of young players in the world of cricket.  They have a huge lineup to choose from and they will come up with the best players to fight the powerful England side.

Scene 6

Team AUSTRALIA Expected XI:  Joe Root (C), Jos Buttler (wk), Ben Stokes, James Anderson, Jofra Archer, Stuart Broad, Chris Woakes, Dominic Bess, Dom Sibley, Dan Lawrence, Jack Leach England is playing on the back of a phenomenal test series victory as they defeated Sri Lanka  on their home soil.  English boys dismantled the spirit of Sri Lanka and recorded a whitewash in the test series.  England come with an enormous adrenaline rush to defeat India as they come head to head in a series comprising 4 tests, 5 T20Is, and 3 ODIs.

Scene 7

Finally, cricket returns to India as the Board of Control for Cricket in India gave a green signal amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.  It kicks off with an electrifying series between India and England on the 5th of February 2021. Cricket returns to Indian soil after almost a year and the cricket board also plans to allow spectators in the stadium at a comparatively low capacity.  After the heroics in Australia, India is now considered a gold mine of young players in the world of cricket. They have a huge lineup to choose from and they will come up with the best players to fight the powerful England side.  With most of the senior players back into the squad after injuries, India looks a decently strong side against the likes of the English boys who had dismantled the spirit of Sri Lanka on their soil and recorded a whitewash in the test series.

Scene 8

Experts and Ajinkya Rahane himself consider Virat Kohli as the outright skipper of the Indian side and that should be the case too. Experts point towards a win for India as they play on their home soil with a lot of confidence and dominance.  It is very important for India to get their tactics right and start the series on a high note against a dominant team like England and a world-class cricketer like Joe Root.  The permission to fans for attending the games would be a great motivation on the part of the players who would be overly enthusiastic to perform their best in front of them and entertain them to their maximum.
