Hello and welcome to the live blog of the ICC World Cup clash between England and India in Birmingham. Big game this for both side. India need a win to earn a place in the semifinals. England are wobbling and desperate to gain back the momentum. They have been pushed out of the top four and are fighting Pakistan for the fourth spot. A loss will not only hurt them, it'll also help New Zealand earn a place in the semifinal.
England are looking to play Jason Roy. Jofra Archer will undergo a fitness test and only then a call will be made. Morgan admitted that they'd take a risk on both if there was no danger of a long-term injury. Those sessions though indicated that the latter could very well miss out, having bowled very little of his full run-up and none at all in the nets, which brings Liam Plunkett into the equation.
India, on the other hand, won't look to change the winning combination. Stay tuned as we bring you more updates. This will be a cracker.
