England vs India live win probability, prediction, odds & chances of victory in 5th T20I in Southampton

India travel to Southampton for the fifth and final T20 international against England, already having conceded the series, as the reigning T20 world champions look to walk away from a bruising tour with at least a shred of dignity intact.

Following the washed-out opener in Durham, India have now dropped three consecutive matches, leaving them searching for answers as they arrive at the Utilita Bowl.

This defeat extended India's losing streak to five straight T20I matches, an unprecedented run in the format for the team, and one that has placed enormous pressure on newly appointed captain Shreyas Iyer barely into his tenure.

The final match still carries significant weight for both sides; England have the chance to claim the world's top T20I ranking from India by completing a full series sweep, while a win for India, even a solitary one, would offer some much-needed relief for Iyer's leadership.
