3rd T20I: Credit To Adil Rashid, He Is A World-class Bowler: SKY Laments On India's Defeat
Niranjan Shah Stadium: India skipper Suryakumar Yadav admitted his side’s shortcomings after the hosts' ten-match unbeaten streak at home came to an end with a 26-run defeat against England in the third T20I of the five-match series at the Niranjan Shah Stadium here on Tuesday.
Electing to bowl first, India had their moments but couldn’t prevent England from reaching a challenging 171/9. Opener Ben Duckett’s blistering 51 off 28 balls laid the foundation, while Liam Livingstone’s 43 off 24 ensured momentum through the middle overs. However, England’s middle and lower order struggled against the guile of Varun Chakravarthy, who delivered a career-best 5 for 24, dismantling their plans.
England’s bowlers, particularly Adil Rashid (1-15), Jamie Overton (3-24), Jofra Archer (2-33), and Brydon Carse (2-28), executed their plans to perfection, ensuring a vital victory to keep the series alive. Lauding Adil Rashid’s game-changing spell, Suryakumar hailed him as a world-class player.
