IND vs ENG 3rd T20I LIVE: Hardik struggling
Hardik Pandya hasn’t been able to fire today. 19-ball 12 so far, and well below the standard we know he is capable of. Axar Patel isn’t getting a move-on either, 2 off 5 as it stands.
IND 87/5 (13.2)
-
21:52 (is)
IND vs ENG 3rd T20I LIVE: England take review
Hardik Pandya has been caught on the pads but a full delivery from Jamie Overton. Seems to be missing leg, as the umpire gives not out. England take the review, and it is indeed missing leg stump.
IND 86/5 (13)
-
21:50 (is)
IND vs ENG 3rd T20I LIVE: Axar Patel sent in
Axar Patel has been sent in ahead of Dhruv Jurel. India seem adamant to maintain the left-right combo in the middle. India’s run-rate is below 7 now. Required run-rate is nearing 12. This is the time to hit.

21:49 (is)
IND vs ENG 3rd T20I LIVE: OUT!
Washington Sundar is gone! End of a painful stay in the middle. 6 runs off just 15 balls. Tries to get a move on, goes big but finds the fielder at mid-off. India’s bold call to send him ahead of Jurel and Axar has backfired big time!
OUT – Washington Sundar – c Buttler b Overton – 6 (15)

21:36 (is)
IND vs ENG 3rd T20I LIVE: Adil Rashid bamboozling India
Big appeal by Adil Rashid, as the ball ricochets off Sundar and goes behind for 4. Umpire gives it not out, and Jos Buttler doesn’t go for a review in the end. Leg byes given, and certainly a question for LBW in that case.
Opportunity missed?
