 India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni [Images] won the toss and elected to field against England [Images] in the Super Eight match of the ICC [Images] World Twenty20 [Images] at Lord's on Sunday.

Defending champions India need to win the match to stay alive in the tournament after their seven-wicket loss to the West Indies [Images] in their first match of the Super Eights.
