5th T20I: Committed To Play This Brand Of Cricket, Says England Captain Buttler Despite 1-4 Series Loss
England came to India with Brandon McCullum taking over as all-format coach and pledging to promote his no-holds-barred style of aggressive cricket, the Bazball, to the shorter format. However, England failed to get the expected results and barring the third match in Rajkot, which they won by 26 runs, struggled to impose their game on the hosts.
England were hammered for 247 runs on electing to bowl in the fifth and final match at the Wankhede with Indian opener Abhishek Sharma hammering a 54-ball 135, operating at a strike rate of nearly 200 throughout his knock. In reply, England collapsed to 97 all out in just 10.3 overs with Mohammed Shami, Vaun Chakravarthy, Abhishek Sharma and Shivam Dube doing the damage, losing the match by a massive 150-run margin with just about half the balls to go.
