Team India’s performance so far under the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer has been very poor. While they lost both the matches of the T20 series against Ireland, they faced defeat in two of the first three matches of the 5-match T20 series being played against England, while one match was cancelled. In such a situation, now the Indian team does not have a chance to win this series but it can definitely end it on a draw. Team India has to play the fourth match of this series at the County Ground in Bristol, in which it has won all the four limited overs matches played so far. In such a situation, the biggest challenge is going to be to maintain this invincible record.
Team India has won three ODIs and one T20 match in Bristol.
Talking about the County Ground of Bristol, big scores have been seen here, the biggest reason behind this is the size of the ground. While the straight boundaries in this stadium are small, some parts are quite big. When the Indian team played a T20 match here in 2018, it achieved the target of 199 runs. In such a situation, it can be clearly understood that here the team chasing the target has the upper hand. Apart from one T20 match, Team India has also played three ODI matches at the Bristol Stadium and has won all of them. Looking at this invincible record, it can help in increasing the confidence of the players of Team India which is still quite low. Here, players may have to face a little more heat than other places, which can be considered a very good thing for Team India.
Till now 7 T20 matches have been played here
Talking about the County Ground of Bristol, England, 7 T20 International matches have been played here so far, out of which the team chasing the target has won 4 times, while the team batting first has been successful in winning only three matches. If we talk about the average score of the first innings of the pitch here this year, the average score in the five matches played in T20 Blast has been seen between 155 to 160 runs. In such a situation, it is going to be a big challenge for the team batting first to make a big score here, in which the role of toss will be very important.
