However, it wasn’t easy for the bowlers, as England started their chase well but lost a bit of their steam later. The match came down to the last moments but the final overs from Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya saved the game and just like that, India won by seven runs.
Not just the bowling, India’s fielding was also top-class. The moment that everyone will remember happened when Will Jacks hit a big shot and Axar Patel ran far to catch it near the boundary. He grabbed the ball but was about to step over the rope. Quickly, he threw it back to Shivam Dube, who caught it quickly and smoothly. This smart fielding became one of the highlights of the tournament.
