Preview :
India (IND) takes on England (ENG) in the second match of five-game T20I series at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Saturday, January 25. The hosts won the first T20I of the series by seven wickets in Kolkata and are leading 1-0.
The host Indian team elected to field first after winning the toss in the series opener and did a good job by bundling England out just for 132. The guest innings were solely constructed by their skipper Jos Buttler, who amassed 68 off 44 and laced his innings with eight boundaries and two sixes. For India, Varun Chakravarthy was the wrecker-in-chief, picking three wickets. Axar Patel, Hardik Pandya, and Arshdeep Singh were also clinical, bagging two wickets each.
On the other hand England chasing a modest 133, the Indian team was struggling after the dismissals of Sanju Samson (26) and Suryakumar Yadav (0). However, Abhishek Sharma's attacking intent took the game away from England. Sharma's knock of 79 off 34 balls, laced with five fours and eight sixes, dismantled the English attack, particularly targeting Mark Wood and Adil Rashid.
