Sat Feb 01 21:12:56 UTC 2025: ## India Eye Series Sweep Against England in Mumbai T20 Finale
**Mumbai, February 1:** India will aim to complete a resounding 5-0 T20I series victory over England in the final match at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday. Having already clinched the series with a 3-1 lead after four matches, India, led by Suryakumar Yadav, seeks to extend their impressive home record. India hasn’t lost a T20I series at home since 2019, boasting a 17-series winning streak.
The Wankhede Stadium, known for its typically batsman-friendly pitch, promises an exciting encounter. While the average first-innings score is above 151, the second innings often proves advantageous. However, any rain could favour the pace bowlers. With a boundary length of 65-70 meters, the stadium could witness a flurry of boundaries. Past statistics show a near even split between teams batting and bowling first in T20Is at the venue. Overall, India holds a commanding 16-12 win record against England in 28 T20I encounters.
Weather forecasts predict favourable conditions for the match, with minimal chance of rain and a maximum temperature around 23°C. The slight breeze will likely have little impact on the game.
The Wankhede Stadium has hosted eight previous T20 Internationals, with three wins for teams batting first and five for teams bowling first. The highest score recorded at the venue is 240 (India vs Sri Lanka, 2019), and the lowest is 135 (Sri Lanka vs India, 2017).
