The Indian action moves to the 'City of Nawabs' - Lucknow, and the match will be played at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium
It's India vs England today in Lucknow - the sixth match for both the teams, but after a contrasting run in the tournament so far, which has seen India winning their all five matches and defending champions England losing four of their five.
Welcome back, and we, at Timesofindia.com, are happy to have you joining us yet again on another India action day in this ICC World Cup.
