India vs England: India toppled England in the high-scoring fifth and final T20I to claim the five-match series 3-2 on Saturday
Dishing out a dominating all-round show, India toppled England in the high-scoring fifth Twenty20 International to not only claim the series 3-2 but also prove that their preparations for the T20 World Cup are moving in the right direction. Rohit Sharma's sensational 64 off 34 balls and skipper Virat Kohli's unbeaten 80 off 52 balls powered India to a massive 224 for two, their best ever total against England, after the visitors won the toss for the fourth time in the series and opted to field on Saturday. In the run chase, Jos Buttler (52 off 34) and Dawid Malan (68 off 46) kept India on the edge with a threatening 130-run stand but England's challenged fizzled with the fall of the wicketkeeper-batsman in the 13th over bowled by Bhuvneshwar Kumar. England's innings eventually ended at 188 for eight as they lost match by 36 runs.More Related News
