The much-awaited India vs England 1st T20I is set to kick off today, with the toss scheduled at 6:30 pm. Cricket fans are excited as India takes on England in the opening T20I match. However, there is one key player whose return is being closely watched by fans and experts alike: fast bowler Mohammed Shami.

Mohammed Shami had been sidelined during India’s Border-Gavaskar Trophy series in Australia, and he repeatedly expressed his frustration, saying, “Kaash mai waha hota… kuch kar pata,” meaning "I wish I were there... I could have done something." His absence was felt as India struggled during the series. Today, Shami's long wait to make his comeback ends, and he is expected to make a significant impact in the match.

The 1st T20I match is crucial for both teams, with India looking to bounce back after the challenges faced in the recent series. Shami’s return to the squad is sure to provide India with much-needed pace and strength in their bowling attack.

Stay tuned for live updates on the match as the excitement builds for the toss and the start of the game!
