Expecting India to field same 11 unless someone is injured.
England may have realized that 4 pacers are too much in Indian conditions.
Last time match played here India, India scored 404 batting first with Talent scoring 264.

Ben was hit for 4 sixers in final over by Carlos Brathwaite in the T20 Cup final on this ground.

bit of a strange looking batting lineup for england as we only have one guy that normally bats in the top 3

Hopefully Bittu will get some swing in first few overs.

Bittu = Bhuvi = Bhuvneshwar Kumar
. I think Bittu must be new for CMS'ers but Bhuvi is pretty clear.
Jinx = Ajju = Ajinkya. Jinx is well known too
Talent = Rohit.

Maybe a little pressure on Morgs as a couple of batters with an eye on his place are in the team.
England playing with five pace bowlers is taking time to sink in.

I don't think he has a nick name. Some fans including me just refer to him as Jas.

Superb first over by Bhuvi
Consistently on off-side.
