India vs England LIVE Updates

: Varun Chakravarthy has given India another breakthrough as he dismissed Liam Livingstone for 0. In the same over, he also dismissed Harry brook for 17 as England lose their fourth wicket. Skipper Jos Buttler has now been joined by Jacob Bethell at the crease as four-down England look for a strong partnership. India skipper Suryakumar Yadav won the toss and opted to bowl against England in the first T20I of the five-match series against England in Kolkata. In a shocking turn of events, fit pacer Mohammed Shami, who was highly expected to play his first match for India after a long gap, was not named in the Playing XI. Before the toss, visuals showed Shami bowling in the nets but still he was not chosen as Arshdeep Singh will be leading India's pace attack. (Live Scorecard)
