India Plans Changes Including Sanju Samson's Return for 4th T20I Against England

Analysed 8 Jul 2026·2 sources analysed·England, United Kingdom·Sports
India Plans Changes Including Sanju Samson's Return for 4th T20I Against EnglandPreviousNext

India faces England in the fourth T20I at Bristol's County Ground, trailing 0-2 in the five-match series. The Indian team is expected to recall Sanju Samson, who was dropped for the previous two matches in favor of 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. Samson's return may lead to changes in the batting order, with Tilak Varma likely to be replaced due to poor form. The bowling lineup might also see Varun Chakaravarthy rested, with Washington Sundar as a potential replacement. The match will be broadcast live on Sony Sports Network and streamed on JioHotstar.
