Jos Butler & Jason Roy clobbered the Indian bowlers in the powerplay & scored 73/0. Hardik Pandya’s last 3 overs brought back India to the game & curtailed England to less than 200 runs. India lost Shikhar Dhawan early but Rohit Sharma never let his absence felt. Alongside Virat Kohli, India looked the favourites to chase down 199 till the Indian skipper departed.
