In the second T20 against England in Manchester, one over from Ravi Bishnoi became the reason for India's defeat. He conceded 29 runs in the 17th over, which helped England easily chase the 191-run target.
Team India faced defeat in the second T20 match played between India and England in Manchester. At one point, the match was completely in India's grasp, but one over from bowler Ravi Bishnoi turned the entire game, and India lost a match they should have won.
In this match, the Indian team batted first and scored 190 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in the allotted 20 overs. England had a challenging target of 191 runs to win.
Chasing the target, the England team had a very poor start. The team lost 2 important wickets with just 1 run on the board.
After that, by the time the score reached 51, three of the team's major batsmen, including names like Phil Salt, Jos Buttler, and Harry Brook, were back in the pavilion. From here, India's victory seemed almost certain.
At the end of 15 overs, England had scored 132 runs for the loss of 4 wickets. The match seemed completely in India's favor. During this time, Jacob Bethell was at the crease with 37 runs off 33 balls, accompanied by Will Jacks.
On the second ball of the 16th over, Varun Chakravarthy dismissed Will Jacks, giving India a major breakthrough. However, in the same over, Sam Curran and Jacob Bethell hit two fours, taking the score to 142 for 5 after 16 overs.
Even at this point, the match was still in India's control. England needed 49 runs to win from the last 24 balls. But the 17th over proved to be the villain for the Indian team.
Ravi Bishnoi came to bowl this over and conceded 29 runs in a single over. This over included three sixes, one four, two singles, and two doubles. After this expensive over, the target became very easy for England, and they needed to score only 20 runs in the last three overs.
With this performance, Ravi Bishnoi became the third Indian bowler to concede the most runs in a single over in T20 Internationals. Before him are Shivam Dube (34 runs) and Stuart Binny (32 runs).
In the 18th over, Jacob Bethell hit a six on the second ball from Harshit Rana, almost sealing the victory for England. The 29 runs scored in the 17th over had made England's task very easy. After this, Jacob Bethell, along with Jofra Archer, led the team to victory in the 19th over itself.
