Rose Bowl cricket ground T20 records and stats: Southampton will be hosting a T20I after just over 12 months.

The first T20I of the ongoing India’s tour of England will be played in Southampton tomorrow. Having last hosted an England-Sri Lanka T20I in June 2021, The Rose Bowl will be hosting an international match after just over 12 months.

England, who’ve played each one of the nine T20Is at this venue, have won six and lost three matches over the years. India, on the other hand, have played two Test matches and ODIs each here but will be playing their first-ever T20I on Thursday.

Although he has led England in 14 white-ball matches in the last six years, this particular match will kick-start England captain Jos Buttler’s tenure as a permanent captain in limited-over matches. Returning to action after missing the recently concluded Birmingham Test due to COVID-19, India captain Rohit Sharma will be leading the team for the first time in and against England.
