England bowl first in in the fourth T20I

Jos Buttler has won the toss and elected to bowl first against India in the fourth T20I in Pune, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Friday. 

England have made two changes, while the Men in Blue have dropped three players from the previous T20I in Rajkot.

“It is a must-win game for us. I am pleased with the performance of the team in the last game. The batters performed well in the last game and we were able to post a good total. Mahmood in for Wood and Bethell in for Smith,” Jos Buttler said.

“We have to play a good brand of cricket and stick to our basics. We are not thinking about the last game. We are here to play good and entertaining cricket. The wicket looks dry and we are hoping to put a good score on the board. We have three changes. Arshdeep Singh, Rinku Singh and Shivam Dube have replaced Mohammed Shami, Dhruv Jurel and Washington Sundar,” Suryakumar Yadav said.
