KOLKATA: England are looking to end their dismal tour of India on a high note by winning today’s one-off Twenty20 in Kolkata to show that they remain a major force in the shortest version of the game. The reigning World Twenty20 champions endured an embarrassing 5-0 whitewash in the One-Day International series at the hands of MS Dhoni’s team. However, a win at Eden Gardens would showcase England’s firepower ahead of the defence of their Twenty20 crown in Sri Lanka next September.
