India had a slurry start to the lap, but it was the efforts of Hardik and Shivam that helped the men in Blue to form a goal of 182 races for England on Friday.

After winning the throw, Jos Buttler-led England decided to bring Suryakumar Yadavs India to beat first.

The three lions had a good start to the match with three quick layoffs at the scoring 12. However, the men in Blue turned over the match on a big note and gave a huge goal.

The opening partnership between Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma had a disappointing start to the game as they could only cement a partnership with 12 races.

England’s Seamer Saqib Mahmood was on fire in the other over as he removed India’s three top fighters without giving a single race to the opponent.

Mahmood removed Samson, Tilak Varma and Captain Suryakumar Yadav in the other above.

It was also Mahmood’s first over the tour and he started it with a triple-wicket girl. It was the first time this happened in a men’s T20 international.

After the early wickets, Abhishek and Rinku Singh made a 45-race partnership to give India a kickstart in the match.

However, Adil Rashid removed Abhishek in the 8th over. While Rinku lost his wicket in the 11th over.

Hardik Pandya showed an overwhelming performance and threw his half -century in the 18th over.

Together with Hardik, Shivam Dube also put a show and crushed his fifty in the 19th.

The duo of Hardik and Shivam took India to 181/9 in the first place. Ravi Bishnoi remained undefeated on the curl until the end.

England has to make 182 races to win the match in Pune and smooth out the series.

Short Score: India 181/9 against England.
