India (223/2) defeat England (188/8) to win 5th T20I by 36 runs; Win series 3-2

[Last Monetarist]

Yeah hope he stays on for the England tour.

Think we had Bhaji last time in 2018.

Harbhajan was an utter embarrassment, and sky were forced to relegating him to the third man chair permanently.

Pretty sure that I heard Ward saying that Kartik will be working for them during the summer.

 

[Mesozoic]

Stop crying. Pandya bowled well in the last game. Had he given the ball to Nattu and he conceded these runs you would have cried still.

Why would I "cry"?

Nattu is a specialist bowler and should always bowl with the new ball in the PP like Bhuvi does. Pandya is more suitable when field spreads...

 

[Hasan123]

Effortless from Jos Buttler.

 

[Mesozoic]

Butler looking in the mood.

 

[Justcrazy]

England need couple of really big overs to bring required rate under a bit of control.

 

[PassionForPak]

Very sensible batting from Malan, Why play spin when Butler can handle it

 

[Mesozoic]

Once again it all depends on Rahul Chahar's 4 overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

184 off 96 balls !

England need a boundary or six every over

 

[Amjid Javed]

13 runs from over.

41/1 after 4 overs.

Yeah don't know what Sky were thinking getting him. I think even Robin Uthappa was there if I'm not wrong...

 

[Hasan123]

Buttler toying with India.

 

[Justcrazy]

Thakur with the ball now , Kohli using bowlers in short spells

 

[Last Monetarist]

Surprised to see Washington in the side after the hammering he took in the last game, surely India could have tried some other spinner. I assume Axar Patel is injured.

 

[Justcrazy]

SIX

England start the over with a six , can they make this over count

 

[Amjid Javed]

Thakur greeted with a 6 by butler

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Oh I forgot we also have Thakur sahab

 

[Hasan123]

Great start for England.

 

[PassionForPak]

Yes!!!! Game is On!!! Expecting a great show now that England have gained confidence!!!

 

[Mesozoic]

We have a game on our hands now.

What's the highest chase in T20Is again?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Legside garbage and flicked away for 4.

 

[PakPremi]

It will be Butler or bust for England, if he plays a big inning then they would have a chance otherwise match gone.

 

[Amjid Javed]

We have a game on our hands now.

What's the highest chase in T20Is again?

245 by Aus vs NZ

 

[Mesozoic]

245 by Aus vs NZ

Oh my....:

Must have been at pint-sized Eden park.

 

[Amjid Javed]

England 55/1 after 5.

 

[Hasan123]

Natrajan into the attack.

 

[PassionForPak]

It's too high. This game won't even be in top 5 if England does finish it but good morale boost for England if they win or vice verca

 

[Ahmed216]

Legside garbage and flicked away for 4.

Thts wat england bowled entire Indian innings

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

4444 Malan

 

[Amjid Javed]

Oh my....:

Must have been at pint-sized Eden park.

Grounds in NZ should be a minimum size. Miss hits on those grounds go for 6.

 

[MP2011]

Thakur as ever is utter garbage.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Thts wat england bowled entire Indian innings

England were even worse with the ball.

 

[Buffet]

Great start by Eng here.

 

[Justcrazy]

England need 163 runs in 84 balls. RRR: 11.64

 

[PassionForPak]

India's best best is to restrict runs than to take wickets.

 

[Amjid Javed]

England 62/1 after 6 overs.

 

[Ahmed216]

India's best best is to restrict runs than to take wickets.

best way to restrict runs is to take wickets.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Wasn't that a wide?

 

[Rana]

Rubbish umpires

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Dumb umpiring

 

[Ahmed216]

Rubbish umpires

Umpires have clearly favored india this series.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Why can't they have Hales in this line up?

 

[MP2011]

Better over from Thakur.

 

[MP2011]

Umpires have clearly favored india this series.

Yeah, sure.

 

[Ahmed216]

England batsmen playing more grounded strokes today because many batsmen were dismissed trying to hit sixes last match

 

[PassionForPak]

Why can't they have Hales in this line up?

Can't have players with Drug issues to affect team. Talent or no talent, aftermath is not worth the effort

 

[Amjid Javed]

Good over for india just 5 runs from it.

67/1 after 7 overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

I still feel England needs a couple of really big overs to be in the game

 

[Mesozoic]

Umpires have clearly favored india this series.

SIX

England need to make this over count

 

[Amjid Javed]

Huge 6 by buttler

 

[Amjid Javed]

Lucky the butler with him charging there.

 

[PassionForPak]

England playing with 10.5 runs an over. Decent batting this!

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Chahar trying all tricks but still getting hit for sixes

 

[NeVerMind]

Why do most Indian players have tattoos? Is it a cultural thing or emulating the West?

 

[Ahmed216]

School kid stuff from chahar. A bowler supposedly better than chahal. What sort of run up was that?

 

[Amjid Javed]

6 more half tracker.

 

[Ahmed216]

Why do most Indian players have tattoos? Is it a cultural thing or emulating the West?

Emulating the west culture

 

[Amjid Javed]

Eng 82/1 after 8 overs.

England need a few more big overs here.

 

[Buffet]

With 9 wickets in hands, Eng should be able to get these runs batting second.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Why do most Indian players have tattoos? Is it a cultural thing or emulating the West?

Emulating the west.

 

[Kaptan]

Chahar is pathetic.
Not worthy of playing for India.

 

[RajBan]

Time for Kohli to take a drinks break

 

[Justcrazy]

Pandya back in the attack

 

[Rohan]

Umpires have clearly favored india this series.

Go on watch SKY and Sundar’s dismissals in last match.

 

[Rana]

They gave that a wide on height and not because of it being down leg

What’s wrong with this umpire??

 

[RajBan]

Unnecessary short balls

 

[Amjid Javed]

Malan playing some glorious shots here.

 

[Ahmed216]

Go on watch SKY and Sundar’s dismissals in last match.

Those were doubtful decisions but some very clear ones have gone against england.

 

[NeVerMind]

Emulating the west.

Surprised to see Indian players having more tats than the English players....looks very odd

 

[RajBan]

England are favourites

 

[Amjid Javed]

England 91/1 after 9 overs.

 

[Ab Fan]

This is a walk in park for England. They will chase it in 15.2 overs.

 

[rhony]

India still favs. Need to stop bowling slower bouncers. They aren't working

 

[Justcrazy]

After 8 overs, India were 81/0, England 82/1

 

[Justcrazy]

England just managing to keep the required rate at 12

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Surprised to see Indian players having more tats than the English players....looks very odd

Yeah. That's strange.

 

[Amjid Javed]

6 more for butler.

 

[Mesozoic]

Chahar bowling Shadab khan lengths.

 

[Kaptan]

This Chahar is an embarrassment.
