The fifth ENG vs IND T20I will be played on July 11.
India’s tour of England 2026 comprises of five T20Is and three ODI matches. The T20Is started on July 1 at Chester-le-Street; and the last match of the series is set to be played on Saturday, July 11, in Southampton.
While the series starter was a wash-out, India are 0-3 down in the series, having lost all the encounters after that first T20I. India had never lost a bilateral series against England before.
Moreover, if India lose their last fixture too, this will account for another record, where India lose 4 matches in a single series or tournament for the first time. Not only this, they will also lose their no.1 rank in the format. India’s freshly appointed Captain, Shreyas Iyer is yet to win a T20I match in his stint.
However, as a batter he has stepped up for the team. Iyer is the highest run-getter in the series so far, amassing 190 runs, including two half centuries, scoring 68 and 80*. Meanwhile, Abhishek Sharma has scored 128 runs in four matches.
As the Indian cricket fans look forward to the last T20I fixture of this series, let us check out the match timings.
ENG vs IND last T20I fixture to begin at 7 PM (IST)

India will be keen to end the series on a high note and win this contest. It will be very important for the team’s confidence and morale. Moreover, two consecutive series defeats seem to have already done immense damage to the confidence of the defending champions of ICC T20 World Cup.
Where to watch ENG vs IND 5th T20I live in India?
For fans in India, the match will be shown live on Sony Sports Network on TV. The live streaming will be available on the JioHostar app and website.
Can India bounce back at Southampton?
India have many T20 World Cup winners, and incredible IPL performers in the squad. They all have great experience of playing in the format. There is barely any lack of experience in the side.
The team seems to currently lack the momentum and intensity. This could be due to the extensive T20 schedule round the year. India’s batting prowess is well known, while the bowling department is something they are experimenting on in this series.
The team can bounce back, and end the series on a high note. The cricket fans around the world are still awaiting for a power show from Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. Moreover, this series will be followed by a tour to Zimbabwe, and the team needs a positive mindset heading into that campaign.
