However, the team faces significant challenges as express pacer Mayank Yadav is likely to miss the entire white-ball series due to a recurring back injury. This absence raises concerns about India's pace attack, especially with Jasprit Bumrah also expected to be sidelined for the series due to a similar injury. Bumrah's potential absence from the ICC Champions Trophy adds further pressure on the squad.
The T20I series will consist of five matches, taking place across various venues including Kolkata, Chennai, Rajkot, Pune, and Mumbai, concluding on February 2. With the absence of Rishabh Pant and Shivam Dube, the team will rely heavily on the remaining players to step up and deliver strong performances against a formidable England side.
