2nd T20I: Carse Replaces Atkinson In England's Playing XI; Smith Added To Squad
Pacer Brydon Carse: Pacer Brydon Carse will replace Gus Atkinson in England's playing XI for the second T20I against India at MA Chidambaram Stadium here on Saturday.
The visitors made only one change in their side after suffering a crushing seven-wicket defeat in the series opener in Kolkata on Wednesday. Wicket-keeper Jamie Smith has also been added to the 12 player squad, England Cricket informed on X.
In the first T20I, Atkinson had a miserable day in the middle as he conceded a staggering 38 runs in his two overs. He didn't finish his full quota of four overs as Abhishek Sharma's 34-ball 79 sealed the victory for India with 43 balls to spare.
