India and England T20 series concluded yesterday. India won a high-scoring game. Earlier England won the toss and chose to bowl. Batting first India piled up a huge total of 224/2 after their 20 overs. It looked like an uphill task for England at the beginning of the chase. After the first wicket fell without scoring, the task got harder. Dawid Malan and Jos Butler teamed up to steady the ship and gave England hope. Both the batsmen batted well to get to their respective half-centuries. At one stage it looked like the match is going to the wire as England was making good progress to chase down the score. But once the wicket of Jos Butler fell, England could not recover from that loss, suddenly things started happening for Indian bowlers. English batsmen were not able to time the ball as they were doing before. Eventually, constantly falling wickets lead to England losing the all-important clash. India won the series.
