IND vs ENG Highlights, 2nd T20I: Player-of-the-match Jacob Bethell's 76 not off 46 balls help England win by four wickets with six balls to go at Manchester. Ravi Bishnoi's three no-balls and two free-hit sixes cost India (190/7) dear. England lead the five-game series 1-0 at Manchester. Jofra Archer hit the winning runs. The match hung in the balance when Bishnoi came on to bowl the 17th over of the innings. He gave away 29 runs as Bethell hit him for three sixes. The game was over there. Shreyas Iyer blamed the 17th over for the defeat. “I was like, okay he's going to come back strong [after the first no-ball in Bishnoi's first over earlier]. But the 17th over haunted us. But he'll learn,” the Indian captain said. Both parties now travel to Trent Bridge for the third game on Tuesday....Read More
A good stand between Jacob Bethell and Tom Banton has brought England back into the game. Varun Chakaravarthy has been a disappointment in his two overs so far. If India go on to lose this, his bowling will be one of the reasons for that. Ravi Bishnoi has not been great either. He even bowled a no-ball in his first over, which is nothing short of a crime, especially for a spinner. Just as we finished writing all that, Arshdeep Singh returned to remove Banton.
England 61/3 after the powerplay. Arshdeep Singh picked up two wickets, those of Phil Salt and Jos Buttler, in the first over but then conceded 27 in his second over. Harry Brook treated him with utter disdain. Axar Patel's wicket of Brook (39 off 15 balls) has changed the complexion of the game. India should fancy their chances from here.
India finish on 190/7. Thanks to Tilak Varma's two sixes and a four in the last over bowled by Jofra Archer, India put a competitive total on the board. But overall, it was a disappointing batting performance from India. Abhishek Sharma (43), Shreyas Iyer (37) and Ishan Kishan (49) were the only ones who could contribute. Debutant Vaibhav Sooryavanshi scored 14 off 10 balls. Sam Curran bowled really well and took three wickets. Now India will have to bowl well to win this contest.
After losing both their openers, India now rely on their captain Shreyas Iyer and No.3 batter Ishan Kishan to take them to a good total. One of them has to bat long for that to happen. England stage a nice comeback after conceding quite a few runs early on.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's innings comes to an end. He scores 14 off 10 balls. He is out stumped. Will Jacks does the job in his very first over, fifth of the innings. India 50/1 after five overs. Abhishek Sharma is unbeaten on 30 off 19 balls at the other end. Sooryavanshi's fans would be disappointed for sure.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi (15 years and 99 days) is the youngest player to represent Team India, leaving the great Sachin Tendulkar (16 years and 205 days) behind. What a year it has been for him so far. Under-19 success, IPL success, India A success and now India debut. However, we don't yet know who he has replaced for this game. Meanwhile, Shreyas Iyer has won the toss and decide to have a bat. Now we have the word out, Sanju Samson has been dropped. Here are the playing XIs.
India: Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan(w), Shreyas Iyer(c), Tilak Varma, Shivam Dube, Harshit Rana, Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Varun Chakaravarthy
England: Philip Salt, Jos Buttler(w), Harry Brook(c), Jacob Bethell, Tom Banton, Sam Curran, Will Jacks, Liam Dawson, Adil Rashid, Jofra Archer, Josh Tongue
Ahead of the second T20I against England at Old Trafford, once again the big question stares fans in the face: will Vaibhav Sooryavanshi finally make his debut for India?
If one goes by what bowling coach Morne Morkel said on the eve of the match, the 15-year-old star will have to wait longer. But since there is so much pressure on the team management to play him, they might succumb to it.
The first T20I at Chester-le-Street had been abandoned due to rain on Wednesday after India put 189/7 on the board. The Indian team is under tremendous pressure to do well in this series after losing to Ireland in the preceding two T20Is.
IND vs ENG Highlights, 2nd T20I: England win by four wickets!
IND vs ENG Highlights, 2nd T20I: Largely a comfortable chase for England. They win with six balls to go. Jofra Archer took a double to close out the game. England now lead 1-0 in the five-game rubber. The first match on Wednesday had been a washout. Both teams now travel to Trent Bridge for the third game on Tuesday. Kudos to Jacob Bethell for playing a chanceless innings. He showed maturity beyond his years. Those 76 runs not out off 46 balls we a masterclass to all intents and purposes. Ravi Bishnoi, who bowled three costly no-balls, had a forgettable day at the office. He would look to move on from this as soon as possible.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: First catch for Vaibhav!
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Takes a nice catch on the legside boundary to send back Sam Curran for 7 off the bowling of Harshit Rana. England 181/6 after 18 overs. It's all over bar the shouting as far as Team India is concerned. They can't win this after that horror show from Ravi Bishnoi.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Ravi Bishnoi's horror show
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Two no-balls and two free-hit sixes. Overall 29 runs in the over. England 171/5 after 17 overs. Jacob Bethell picked up three sixes from the over. More bad news for Team India, Arshdeep Singh injures his shoulder while fielding on the boundary. Bishnoi overall has bowled three no-balls today. Can you believe that?
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Wicket for Varun!
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Will Jacks goes for a reverse sweep but misses the ball. Lbw appeal and given out. Jacks reviews but the umpire upholds the on-field decision. Jacks goes for 9 off eight balls. Curran and Bethell then pick up a four each in the over. England 142/5 after 16 overs.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Good comeback by Varun
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Just six runs off his third over. England 122/4 after 14 overs. Smart move there by Shreyas Iyer. Just as there was a wicket, he brought back the spinner to take advantage of the situation. Chakaravarthy did just that.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: India look to Rana!
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: But to no avail. Gives away 12 runs in his over, 11th of the innings. 50-run stand also comes up between Bethell and Banton. England 104/3 after 11 overs. England have the momentum now. India desperately need wickets.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Just two runs off Axar's over!
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Excellent bowling in the ninth over of the innings. England 78/3. Team India in full control. Varun Chakaravarthy comes back to bowl and Jacob Bethell smashes him for a six over long-on. A four to follow off the third ball off the bat of Banton. India 91/3 after 10 overs. The match hangs in the balance at this stage.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Banton and Bethell rebuild
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: The match hangs in the balance at present. Varun Chakaravarthy gives eight runs in his first over. England 76/3 after 8 overs. Will spin make a difference for India? Bishnoi, Patel and Varun's overs are crucial for sure.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Spin at both ends
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: After Ravi Bishnoi, now it's Axar Patel's turn to bowl, the fifth of the innings. And he removes Brook in style. India back in the contest again! Huge wicket. England 53/3 after five overs. The ball was way down leg but Brook, on his knee, found a feather touch on his glove while attempting a big sweep shot. Just the wicket India wanted.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Brook moving about a lot
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: England captain has hit four fours so far, since the first over. And he is trying to make room for himself. This is the most important wicket for Team India. Just as we say that, he hits Arshdeep Singh for a six over deep square leg. Total disdain. Two fours and a six so far in the third over. One more six over long-on. Absolutely mayhem in Manchester. Game is such a great leveller. Just a few minutes back, Arshdeep had bowled a brilliant over. Six off the last ball too. England 38/2 after three overs. 27 runs from the over.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Great start by Team India
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Arshdeep Singh has Phil Salt caught behind off the first ball. And then Jos Buttler finds the short midwicket fielder. England two down in the first over itself and just one run on the board. Couldn't have been a better start for the visitors.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Some respite!
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Harshit Rana smashes Josh Tongue for a six over long-on off the last ball of the 19th over. Some relief there. Hopefully it will be a beginning of a flurry of big shots.
Archer bowls the last over and Tilak Varma smashes him for back-to-back sixes and then a four. India finish on 190/7.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: First four in 14 balls
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Ishan Kishan reverse-sweeps for a four off Will Jacks. But he is really uncomfortable out there. These boundaries are also fairly big. At this rate, India will have rethink their batting positions in these conditions. Kishan doesn't look like a No.3 for sure. India 153/4 after 17 overs.
Kishan out off the first ball of the 18th over. Dawson takes a nice catch off the bowling of Sam Curran. Kishan took 40 balls for his 49. Way too many deliveries for T20s. Curran finishes with figures of 3/32. India 161/5 after 18 overs.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Kishan is key now
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: He is well settled and he has to bat right through to the end of the innings. These are not very friendly conditions for batters. Now that he has come this far, he has to ensure he gets a big one, especially in light of his woes in the last three games. However, he is struggling big time in the 16th over by Sam Curran. Just one run through a wide. Finally a single for Kishan off the fifth ball. Dube out off the last ball. India 146/4 after 16 overs.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: First six for Iyer
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: A nice pull over midwicket. 12 runs from the Liam Dawson over so far. Iyer out off the last ball! Goes for another lofted shot, this time on the offside but was deceived by the spinner. Tom Banton takes a nice catch running to his left from long-off. India 130/3 after 13 overs. Shivam Dube up next.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Finger injury for Iyer
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Josh Tongue hits him in one of the gloves and now Iyer's finger is being bandaged up. He is back after a little medical break. Hopefully, it won't hamper him in any way. If it does, it will be terrible news for Team India. India 118/2 after 12 overs.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: It could have been third blow!
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Thankfully for India, Phil Salt, in the deep, misjudged it and dropped it. Ishan Kishan gets a life off the bowling of Adil Rashid. India 108/2 after 11 overs. Kishan 24, Iyer 20. Kishan played a sweepish shot but wasn't in control in any way. But he had the luck on his side as Salt failed to grab it
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Iyer, Kishan building a stand
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: That's the need of the hour. India 96/2 after 10 overs. Kishan 14 off 14 balls and Iyer 18 off 12 balls. The run rate has come down significantly. That's understandable. The powerplay is over and it's not exactly a batting friendly pitch, if truth be told, especially for batsmen from the sub-continent.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Abhishek out too
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Goes for 43 off 24 balls. Fails to connect a Sam Curran fulltoss nicely and finds Banton at deep midwicket. Double blow sets India back. India 74/2 after 7 overs. Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan now have a big responsibility.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Vaibhav goes!
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Big blow to Team India. Debutant Vaibhav Sooryavanshi goes after scoring 14 off 10 balls. Will Jacks gets him, out stumped. The batsman stepped out and went for a big shot but missed it completely. India 50/1 after five overs.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Another six!
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: This time off Josh Tongue. The ball appeared to be a little slow on his offstump and Vaibhav scooped it and sent over midwicket for a six. Abhishek joins the party now with a four a six later in the over. That six was nicely hit over long-off. Big over for the visitors. Three off the last ball. India 41/0 after 4 overs.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: First six for Vaibhav
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: The Archer delivery is a bit wide on his pads and he hits it over fine leg for a six. Archer stages a quick comeback. Dot, single and a dot. One more dot. Believe me, it's quite difficult out there at Manchester. It's quite windy and that appears to be helping the pacers. Edgy four off the last ball for Abhishek. India 21/0 after 3 overs.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Tongue to Vaibhav
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Debutant to debutant. Single to Sooryavanshi off the fourth ball of the over. But it was not convincing. Ball is doing a lot at Old Trafford and so far the batters have looked uncomfortable. India 10/0 after two overs.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Jofra to Abhishek
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Mouth-watering contest. A bit wide outside offstump and Abhishek goes for it. But misses it. Another miss in a similar fashion. Archer is working up some nice pace. Flying edge down third man for four. Another dot like previously. Abhishek looks a bit edgy. One more play and miss. Good over so far from Archer. He looks all revved up. Another dot. India 4/0 after first over.
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: Openers warming up and ready
IND vs ENG LIVE Score, 2nd T20I: What a day for Indian cricket! The long wait comes to an end. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi finally makes his debut at the age of 15. And his partner is going to be Abhishek Sharma who is also a devastating batter. Will there be some internal rivalry too? We will have to wait and watch.
