Hello and welcome to Sportstar’s HIGHLIGHTS of the second T20I between India and England from Edgbaston in Birmingham.
INDIA BEAT ENGLAND BY 49 RUNS
India dished out another clinical performance to follow up on its 50-run win in the first T20I with a 49-run win today and took an unassailable lead in the three-match series. After being put in to bat by England, India was off to another brisk start with Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant pairing for a 49-run opening stand in 4.5 overs. After a middle-order meltdown, where India lost five wickets for 40 runs, Ravindra Jadeja took his team to a respectable 170 with an unbeaten 29-ball 46. With the ball, Bhuvneshwar Kumar struck in the PowerPlay again, dismissing both openers and then Bumrah castled Liam Livingstone to leave England three down in the first five overs. The host kept losing wickets at regular intervals and was bundled out for 121, with David Willey not out on 33 runs off 22 balls. The win also marks Rohit’s 14th consecutive T20I win as captain of India.
PLAYER OF THE MATCH: BHUVNESHWAR KUMAR 3/15
BHUVNESHWAR KUMAR: “When ball swings, you definitely enjoy. In the last few years, there is not much help with the ball in England but this year it is more. White ball getting swing upfront is a motivational factor for a fast-bowler and batters have to take their chances. We know [Jos] Buttler is a dangerous player. If the ball swings, I go for a wicket and it works. If the ball swings, it motivates you to do things against a particular batsman. Honestly I don’t want to talk about injuries. If anyone asks me the same in India, I don’t answer; I am sorry. I am playing, so it’s good.”
ROHIT SHARMA: “We all know how good they are wherever they go and not just in England. We were clear what we wanted to do... Wanted to see how we do after a win and will look to challenge us as a group. Brilliant knock under pressure [by Jadeja] and with his experience of the hundred in this ground, he was calm and collective. At no point did we feel that he was panicking. It was good to finish on a score we thought was par on that surface. We do understand the importance of the PowerPlay, whether we bat or bowl. Our PowerPlay in both games was superb and want to give guys confidence to continue. We do want to give the guys sitting on the bench some chances and will go and discuss with the coach. We are moving in the right direction and the only red flag I see is we can’t get carried away.”
JOS BUTTLER: “Very disappointing. I don’t think we played well enough to consider batting first as an option. Fantastic debut [by Richard Gleeson] given the guys he got out, although a disappointing result. CJ [Chris Jordan] always bowls the tough overs and is naturally under pressure a lot of the time. Gets the result most of the times. Delighted for him.”

MATCH PREVIEW
Star India batter Virat Kohli would be desperate to come out of his prolonged lean patch when he makes his T20I return after five months with the second game against England here on Saturday.
Kohli, who last played a T20 International in February, has featured in only two games since India’s underwhelming campaign in the T20 World Cup in October-November when he was captain of the national side.

The only T20 cricket he played since then was in the Indian Premier League (IPL) but there too he was far from his best.
Kohli and other seniors getting frequent breaks as part of the team’s rest and rotate policy gave the opportunity to fringe players like Deepak Hooda, who will be difficult to drop on Saturday after the performances he has come up with.
Batting at Kohli’s position, Hooda has made a big impact and also showed ominous form in the series opener against England, scoring a 17-ball 33.
If India decides to retain Hooda, then Kohli could open alongside skipper Rohit Sharma at the expense of Ishan Kishan, who has also been consistent at the top.
The opening position is something Kohli is quite familiar with and his last half-century in T20 Internationals also came at the top.
With Kohli expected to take another break for the five T20Is against West Indies, the two games against England assume more importance as far as his future in the T20I set-up is concerned.
Kohli has ‘been there and done that’ but with the younger lot playing fearless cricket, he will need to come back to his best.
The first game against England saw the return of Rohit after a COVID-induced break and the team put together a perfect game. The batters displayed the uninhibited approach that has become essential in the shortest format while the pacers exploited the conditions brilliantly.

Shedding the conservative style of play that let them down in the World Cup, Indian batters gave clear signs of their approach going forward. The PowerPlay fetched 66 runs and even after the fall of wickets, the intent was to go hard from ball one.
However, the team can improve its finishing skills, an area it lacked on Thursday night.
Besides Kohli, Rishabh Pant, Jasprit Bumrah, Ravindra Jadeja and Shreyas Iyer have also joined the T20I squad following a break after the fifth Test here.
It seemed India was a batter short in the series-opener though it ended up with 198. Jadeja is a like-for-like replacement for Axar Patel and his inclusion also makes the batting unit more solid.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been mighty impressive with the new ball and Bumrah is expected to join him. Arshdeep Singh made a successful debut but since he is not part of the squad for the next two games, Umran Malik may get more chances.
Hardik Pandya had a game to remember with both and ball and his presence is surely a big boost to the side in a World Cup year.
Rohit will also want to see a marked improvement in the team’s fielding, especially catching, after an ordinary show on Thursday.
England, which was blown away by the visitor at Southampton, will back itself to make a strong comeback.
It relies a lot on skipper Jos Buttler, who will be keen to make amends after his first-ball duck.
The power-packed batting, including Liam Livingstone and Jason Roy, failed in the first game but trust them to come good in a must-win game.
Squads
India: Rohit Sharma (captain), Ishan Kishan, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Shreyas Iyer, Dinesh Karthik, Rishabh Pant (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Yuzvendra Chahal, Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi, Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Avesh Khan, Harshal Patel, Umran Malik.
England: Jos Buttler (captain), Moeen Ali, Harry Brook, Sam Curran, Richard Gleeson, Chris Jordan, Liam Livingstone, Dawid Malan, Tymal Mills, Matthew Parkinson, Jason Roy, Phil Salt, Reece Topley and David Willey.
