India 166 for 8 (Tilak 72 *, Washington 26, Carse 3-29) Beat England 165 for 9 (Buttler 45, Carse 31, Axar 2-32, Varun 2-38) by two counters
Ditto, even but different
A first window for Arshdeep Singh. Check. This time with a bouncer made a boost on the body of Phil Salt with two men for the hook.
A first ball window with a spin. Check. This time the boy at home Washington Sundar, who replaced the injured Nitish Kumar Reddy.
Standards for Varun Chakravarthy. Check. Harry Brook launched through the door the first time he faced Varun.
However, England refused to get bogged down. They continued to strike despite the loss of counters. Buttler scored 45 out of 30. Score 90 for 5 in the 12th.
Smith and Cane Boost England
The rhythm encounters fire
Archer and Mark Wood let the ball tear up under the night sky. Wood sewn a fast delivery to trap Abhishek, but not before the opener killed archer by sculpting it for three limits in the first. Varma went further by giving her 1-2: back and cut for four, followed by a swayed stadium. Between the two, Archer’s rhythm represented the Sanju Samson counter.
England dig
England did not decide and continued to test the midfielder. They did shopping, but Cane managed to get the Suryakumar Yadav and Dhruv’s counters jurel with just this length. Jamie Overton stacked with a first Boucare ball to take the Hardik Pandya glove while India has lost three counters for 21 points in four overs and slipped to 78 for 5 in 9.1.
Rashid drops Washington
With a little grip at his disposal, Adil Rashid has played magnificently in the middle of the Overs to stack the pressure on India. Four points came out of 11 balls for the stand. Then, a flying bouncer for five wide caused relief from India. However, the wood seemed again to have produced the counter, but Rashid dropped a goalkeeper halfway. A balle-free, later in the end, was followed by a six free hit, and two glorious air strokes from the rear foot to difficult lengths that were released halfway. Now, 53 required for seven.
England buys their way
Corse again produced a beauty to hit the top of the Washington middle. India still had one more before it can enter the tail. Buttler bought this counter with the introduction of the Liam Livingstone spin. Axar took place on deep midwicket, to open an end with 40 still needing 31.
Tilak prevails
Buttler went to archer to bring the advantage home, but Tilak opened the game. A six lowest on board did not quite have fun Archer, who had seen Tilak do it earlier, but the cup Flat square for sixties has amazed him. No more despair followed when Arshdeep Toe finished a border, but Archer had been distracted with his support and did not attack the strains at any time.
Buttler played again with Rashid. Tilak cultivated the strike early and gave Arshdeep a single ball to play. Like Axar, Arshdeep too, swallowed hard and sunk on the deep square leg.
Carse again launched a curly to leave 13 of the last two, and buttler has played again. Tilak took over the first four balls. For only three. Now you cannot blame the lower order for lack of consistency. Even Ravi Bishnoi was swaying in Livingstone, but this time, the edge stole some short third.
Tilak finished with a four burning four covers with four balls to do.
