ENG vs IND predicted playing XI: Will Sanju Samson return after being dropped?

England are expected to stick with the same playing XI after their dominant 125-run victory in the third T20I. Openers Phil Salt and Jos Buttler returned to form with important knocks, while Jofra Archer and Josh Tongue led the bowling attack brilliantly. With both the batting and bowling units performing well, the hosts are unlikely to make any changes for the fourth T20I.

India, meanwhile, are expected to face a selection dilemma after their batting collapse in Nottingham. The visitors had replaced Ravi Bishnoi with Prince Yadav for the third T20I, but the move failed to change their fortunes as India were bowled out for just 76 runs. This has raised questions over whether wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson could return to the playing XI for the must-win encounter.

Below are the predicted playing XIs for both teams ahead of the fourth T20I in Bristol.
