The Indian team will want to definitely win a game in England this time around. But, here is the best India T20I XI from all the England tours which has the capability to defeat England in England.

1. Ajinkya Rahane

Ajinkya Rahane is known to be one of the most technically sound batsmen. He has got great temperant and adjusts to alien conditions very quickly. In fact, his records overseas are much better than many of the players. Rahane has been the backbone of the Indian Test team for quite some time now. However, his place in the limited-overs formats hasn’t been stable enough.

Rahane isn’t a part of either the T20I side or the ODI side this time around. He has struggled in the IPL this year and also failed to maintain the consistency in the previous tours. In the two T20Is he has played in England, Rahane has scored 69 runs which is the second-highest and also, his strike rate is an amazing 160.
