After losing the first two matches of the five-match T20 International series currently being played between India and England, England came back into the series by clinching the third match. The Indian team, which comfortably chased the score of 132 runs at Eden Gardens in Kolkata, and 165 runs at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, could not chase the target of 171 in Rajkot's Niranjan Shah Stadium. Ultimately, England won this match by 26 runs and made a comeback in the series by 1 -2. After this victory, England captain Jos Buttler looked very happy. During this, he praised his experienced bowler Adil Rashid.
After winning the match, Jos Buttler said that our players bowled really well. It was good to see the display of their skills. It is not about how fast they can bowl, but how well they can adjust with the wicket. He is the most important player in our team, we are fortunate to have an experienced player like Adil Rashid in the team. He has all kinds of variations. Let us tell you that Rashid could get only one wicket of Tilak Verma, but he spent only 15 runs in four overs at an economy of just 3.8.
Butler said that Jofra is also performing well consistently. I think the wicket looked different, although Duckett played a good game. We lost wickets continuously, and we were disappointed. However, it was important for us to take wickets in the powerplay. I really liked the way we kept the pressure on and took the game forward. The credit goes to Rashid and Wood. They made an important partnership in the end and that was the difference in the end.
Let us tell you that after losing the toss and batting first, England scored 171 for the loss of 9 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs on the scoreboard. Ben Duckett scored a brilliant 51 runs while Livingstone scored 43 runs. On the other hand, Varun Chakraborty took five wickets for India. In response, India's team could only score 145 runs for 9 wickets. Apart from Hardik Pandya 40 and Abhishek Sharma 24, no other batsman could reach the figure of 20. In this way, England won by 26 runs.
