Adil Rashid Defending Spell, England Keep Series A

<p><span style="color:#000000">On 28 January 2025 Tuesday, the 3 T20I match was played between India vs England&nbsp; in Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot. Adil&#39;s defensive spell helped England beat India by 26 runs and keep the 5 t20i matches series alive with 2-1. </span><a href="https://grand11.in/cricket-breaking-news/india-vs-england-4th-t20i-dream11-prediction-team/1828" style="text-decoration:none"><span style="color:#1155cc"><u>The fourth T20 is scheduled to take place in Pune</u></span></a><span style="color:#000000">.</span></p>

<h2><span style="color:#000000">Adil Rashid Middle Over Spell</span></h2>

<p><span style="color:#000000">India got to 62 for 3 in seven overs before Rashid joined the fray. He put one up outside Tilak&#39;s off-stump after five deliveries that went without incident. The ball landed on excellent length and turned brutally to ping the middle stump, beating the batter both off the field and in the air as he prepared to remove it.</span></p>

<h2><span style="color:#000000">Match Summary</span></h2>

<h3><span style="color:#434343">England&#39;s Innings:</span></h3>

<p><span style="color:#000000">England chose to bat first and scored 171 for 9. With 51 runs off 28 balls, Ben Duckett was the most impressive player, followed by Liam Livingstone with 43 runs. However, Varun Chakravarthy of India bowled brilliantly, taking five wickets for 24 runs, which caused England&#39;s batting to collapse badly.&nbsp;</span></p>

<h3><span style="color:#434343">India&#39;s Chase:</span></h3>

<p><span style="color:#000000">India found it difficult to counter England&#39;s well-organized bowling attack. India&#39;s speed was mostly stopped by Adil Rashid&#39;s economical session, which saw him give up only 15 runs in his four overs and take the vital wicket of Tilak Varma. With three wickets, Jamie Overton also contributed significantly. India finished their innings at 145 for 9 despite Hardik Pandya&#39;s 40-run performance.</span></p>

<h2><span style="color:#000000">England Victory</span></h2>

<p><span style="color:#000000">After winning the 3 t20I match helped England to stay alive and keep this series interesting. India lead the series 2-1, with two matches remaining. </span></p>

England spinner Adil Rashid's defending spell in the middle overs helped England to keep this series alive.
