Team India swung back into the series, beating England by eight runs in the fourth T20I against England. They levelled the ongoing five-match series 2-2 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday. Sent out to bat first, India posted a challenging total of 185/8 at the end of their innings with the help of Suryakumar Yadav’s maiden T20I fifty. After the openers were dismissed, the 30-year old controlled the innings with a 31-ball 57.

Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer also pitched in with runs towards the end. Archer gave the hosts a scare with a four and six in the final over. In the end, Virat Kohli’s men restricted the Englishmen to 177/8 at the end of the 20 overs. With the series tied at 2-2, now the fifth and final T20I on Saturday will be the series-decider! Meanwhile, while the teams buckle up, take a look at the top three betting tips from the IND vs ENG match assorted for you.

IND vs ENG Team Bets

With the series going on a tie, it is difficult to comprehend the favourite to win but the oddsmakers are offering winner bets in favour of India to win the match. However, take a look at the top IND vs ENG team betting tips I have hand picked for you.

England To Have The Highest Opening Partnership

This first odd is the highest of the lot, giving you a chance to double your money. The last match has put a tie between the two teams by 2-2 in the 5 match series. Over the four innings that both the teams have played, India has gathered a total of measly 30 runs from their opening partnership. England on the other hand having played the same number of innings have assembled 111 runs from their opening partnership. This averages to only 7.5 runs per match for team India and 27.75 runs per match for England.

England had a good start in the opening series where openers Jason Roy and Jos Buttler scored 72 runs from their partnership. Compare this to India, who were at a mere 2 runs opened by Shikhar Dhawan and KL Rahul. In the second match both the teams performed poorly. England was at 1 run from while India was at a duck. The third match again saw England take a lead. Roy and Buttler scored 23 runs from their partnership while Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul were at 7 runs.

The Englishmen took proper control in the second partnership where Jos Buttler and Dawid Malan scored 82 runs finishing the match to a win. In the fourth match, Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul opened with 21 runs. Roy and Butler were behind in only one match at 15 runs in the fourth game. Bet365.com is offering high betting odds of 2.00 for England to score the highest opening partnership in Ind vs Eng 5th T20I match.

India To Hit Most Match 4’s

My second bet is in favour of the host. From the four matches that IND and ENG have played, both have taken turns in winning 2 matches each. England has scored 9,15,12 and 15 fours against India who have scored 12,12,14 and 21 fours in the 4 innings played. Clearly specified that even if by a slight margin, the men in blue are ahead of the Englishmen in hitting smaller boundaries. This totals to 59 fours which averages to 14.75 fours per match for India. England has 51 fours which averages 12.75 fours per match.

To look at it this way, the Men in Blue have gathered more fours than what England has. Players like Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant have individually hit 13,14, and 11 fours each. This averages to 3.25, 3.5 and 2.75 fours individually. While the highest fours hit by an English player is 16 by Jason Roy, which averages to 4 fours per match. It's evident that India has better chances of winning this bet. Dafabet.com has offered high betting odds of 1.94 for India to hit most match sixes in the IND vs ENG head to head match.

India vs England Player Bets

Virat Kohli, Jos Butler & Shreyas Iyer are the series stars in the ongoing matches amongst batsmen with their spectacular form. However I have picked the best IND vs ENG player betting tips from the game out for you.

Virat Kohli To Score Over 28.5 Runs

India skipper, Virat Kohli, smashed an unbeaten 77 in the third T20I against England. He has moved back into the latest top five ICC Men’s T20I ranking after his blistering performances in the ongoing five-match series in Ahmedabad. Kohli, a formerly top-ranked batsman in the format and currently number one in ODI’s has gained one slot and a massive 47 rating points after the third match played.

Although India won the last match against England, Kohli managed to score 1 runs from 5 balls played before being stumped by Jos Buttler. But we cannot ignore the fact that Kohli is the highest run-getter amongst batsmen in the ongoing season. He has played 4 innings and ranked up 151 runs at an average of 75.50 which includes 2 half-centuries. From the 83 T20I innings he has played, Kohli has gathered 3079 runs at an average of 51.31 including 27 half-centuries. Virat Kohli is hands down one of the best players India has seen. Undoubtedly his performance in the final series is going to be as per expectations. To this, Dafabet.com is offering betting odds of 1.87 for Kohli to score over 28.5 runs in the IND vs ENG finisher series.
