IND vs ENG 2025: 3 Players who can make a big impact for India in 5th T20I against England

India (IND) will clash with England (ENG) in the fifth T20I of the five-match series at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday, February 02. Suryakumar Yadav's men have already clinched the series by taking an unassailable 3-1 lead. They will look to finish off on an emphatic note. Meanwhile, England would be playing for pride against the Men in Blue on Sunday.

India won the first T20I comprehensively in Kolkata to start the series on a promising note. They followed it up with a narrow two-wicket win in Chennai. The Three Lions bounced back to win the third T20I in Rajkot. However, India returned to winning ways in the fourth T20I in Pune to take the series. While this match holds little relevance as the series has already been decided, both teams will want to come out with a victory ahead of the ODIs.

Let us take a look at three players from the Indian team who can make a huge impact in the fifth T20I:

3. Abhishek Sharma

Abhishek Sharma is the leading run-getter in the series. He has scored 144 runs from four matches at a commendable average of 36.00 and an awe-inspiring strike rate of 197.26. Abhishek looked in good touch in the fourth T20I, but he eventually perished for a 19-ball 29. He has only one half-century in the series. The Punjab cricketer would want to register another big score on Sunday.

Abhishek will enjoy batting at the Wankhede Stadium. The surfaces at the venue are usually very good for batting. Abhishek, who likes to play his shots, might score big if he gives himself a little bit of time at the crease. The 24-year-old is also a good player of spin, and he wouldn't mind taking on the relatively short boundaries at the iconic venue.
