There is a long series of 5 matches between India and England. Both the teams have players who have the power to make their team win. However, the Indian team is always considered strong at home. Especially in recent times, the Indian team has performed well in T20. At the same time, since 2014, the England team has not been able to defeat India in any T20 series. Despite this, England's veteran cricketer Michael Vaughan has claimed that this time his team will defeat India 3-2.

Vaughan predicted

The England team has lost 4 consecutive T20 series against India. The last encounter between the two teams took place in the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup 2024. During this also, Team India had won. Now Jos Buttler will try his best to avenge all the defeats. Before the match to be held in Kolkata, fans asked former England cricketer Michael Vaughan to make predictions about the series. Responding to this he said that the England team will win 3-2. That means India will have to face defeat after 11 years.

How true is Vaughan's claims?

A total of 24 matches have been played between the two teams in T20 so far. During this period the Indian team has had the upper hand. India has won 13 matches while England has won 11 matches. Let us tell you that in 2014, the English team had defeated India in the 1-match T20 series at home. After that, India won four consecutive series in 11 years, two of which were held at the home of England. In the last 5 matches between the two teams, India won 3.

India has played 7 T20 Internationals in Kolkata, out of which it has won 6. Had to face defeat in one, in which the opposing team was England. Apart from this, India has won 68.90 percent of T20 International matches at home, which is the highest compared to any team. If we look at these figures, Michael Vaughan's prediction does not seem to be proving correct.
