IND versus ENG first T20I Features: Tilak Verma’s 72-run innings assisted India with dominating the second game of the five-match T20 series against Britain in Chennai on Saturday by two wickets. The best bowler for England was Brydon Carse who took three wickets.
Earlier, except Ravi Bishnoi, all the seven bowlers tried by India in Chennai took wickets. For the visitors, England captain Jos Buttler top-scored with 45 before being dismissed by Axar Patel. Apart from him, the only real spark came from Brydon Carse, who scored 31 before being run out.
Tilak Verma hit a limit and finished the match in style. This innings from youthful Verma was splendid. He stayed totally under control all through the innings and guaranteed that India won. The manner in which he batted with the tailenders was amazing. Tilak, who is only 22 years of age, may have played an innings that can solidify his place in Indian white ball cricket for a couple of years. India have taken a 2-0 lead here, yet Britain have set up a battle today. Had they scored 10-15 runs more, the game might have been totally unique.
