India is back on the points table after six wins on the trot. India is currently the only unbeatable side in the tournament. However, the match against England hasn’t started on dominating terms. India batting first for the first time lost three wickets for just 40 runs and then Rohit teamed up with Rahul. They both built a solid partnership and steadied the innings.

Suryakumar Yadav came next and scored a fluent 49. Rohit fell after scoring a superb 87. On a two-paced pitch, India scored 229 for the loss of 9 wickets. Chasing 230, England could have fancied their chances and they started well by scoring 30 runs in quick time. However, what followed was a brutal pace attack.

Especially, the Shami and Bumrah duo has taken the attack back to England and bamboozled the English batters. From 30/0 they fell to 39/4 within no time. From then, England couldn’t get back. They finally got bundled out for 129. Shami picked four wickets, Bumrah 3, Kuldeep 2, and Jadeja 1 wicket. Rohit was adjudged the Player of the match.
