इंग्लैंड vs भारत, दूसरा टी-20, ओल्ड ट्रैफर्ड क्रिकेट ग्राउंड, मैनचेस्टर, 04 July 2026 - हाइलाइट्स

Short and sliding across from over the wicket. Bethell reaches out and goes hard on the cut but ends up chopping it down off an inside edge on the pitch.

Too short and curving away, Jacob arches back a bit and carves it to deep point for a single.

The googly, touch full on off. Will Jacks hangs back and across and nudges it gently to mid-wicket.

Spins in on middle, full in length. Will Jacks gets across and tucks it behind square on the leg side for a couple of runs.

Outside off and short, Will Jacks punches off the back foot to deep cover for a single.

Flat and full, outside off. Bethell lunges forward and creams the cover drive to the left of the fielder at cover and calls for two straightaway. The long off fielder has a lot of ground to cover to his right and they hustle back for the second. England need 67 runs off 36 balls now.

 FOUR! Expertly played! Short and slow by Axar, outside off. Will Jacks has all the time in the world to rock back and punch it to the cover region. He beats Shreyas Iyer to his left and picks up a crucial boundary.

Slides it in on a length, Will Jacks watchfully bunts it back to the bowler.

A lot fuller on off, Will Jacks presses forward and clips it through wide mid-wicket for a single.

Pitched outside leg, on a length. Bethell creates room by backing away and swats it down the ground for a single.

Spotting Jacks skip down the track, Axar fires one outside off on a fuller length. Will adjusts well to it and taps it in front of cover-point for a quick single.

Not that full, not too short either. Aimed at the pads. Bethell charges down and works it to the vacant backward square leg for a single. Excellent recovery from Axar after being hit for a boundary on the first ball of the over. Just 8 runs from it. He is done with his spell, with figures reading 1/20 in 4 overs.

Pushed through, on a nagging length, across off. Bethell hangs deep and swings at it. He does not quite get hold of it and it goes down to long on for one.

OUT! LBW! That's got to be close, and the finger has been raised. Will Jacks has reviewed it immediately. Was there any bat? From around the wicket, very full, on middle. Jacks goes for the reverse and reaches out in front. The ball dips under the blade to hit him flush on the right boot. No bat involved on UltraEdge, and it is three reds on Ball Tracking with the ball crashing into the middle stump. Jacks takes a review with him. England are now 5 down for 133.

FOUR! Edged away! A bit of air given, short and wide on off. Curran flashes and flashes hard. Gets an outside edge and it races fine of the short third fielder for a boundary.

Closer to the off stump now and fuller as well. Sam punches it to deep cover for one.

FOUR! Smashed! From over the wicket for Bethell, full and quick, across off. Bethell puts his head down and swings through the line. Drills it back past the bowler, and Axar Patel at long on stands no chance.

Slows it down a touch and it is shorter as well, on off. Bethell forces it off the back foot but straight to cover. 10 runs and a wicket from Chakaravarthy's last over. England need 49 off 24.

No Ball! For the second time in the game, Ravi Bishnoi has cut the return crease with his back leg. Dishes out the googly, outside off. Not short enough for the cut. Curran chops it wide of point for a single. Free Hit coming up.

SIX! Jacob Bethell makes the Free Hit count. Pushed through, right in the slot, on middle. Bethell backs away and makes room for himself. A clean swing of the arms and Bethell deposits it over long on for a biggie. The 150 is up for England.

This is slower, on a good length, around off. Bethell moves towards the leg side again to slam it away on the off side but is beaten on the outside edge. Would you believe it? Bishnoi has cut the return crease yet again. No Ball called. Free Hit to follow...

SIX! Jacob Bethell makes Ravi Bishnoi pay once again. With this hit, Bethell brings up his 4th T20I fifty. Floated up, it is the googly, on middle. Jacob clears the front leg and tonks it back over the bowler's head for half a dozen. 15 runs off the over with only 2 legal balls bowled so far in the over. England have a golden opportunity here to convert this into a massive over.

On the pads, on a length. Bethell shovels it behind square leg for a couple of runs.

FOUR! In the gap! A bit too short, on middle. Bethell backs away and slaps it uppishly but to the left of the extra cover fielder for a boundary.

SIX! 27 runs off the over with a ball to go. Jacob Bethell has all but sealed the fate of the game. Flighted delivery, too full this time, on middle. Bethell drops to a knee and clubs it way over deep mid-wicket. 

A couple of runs saved by Arshdeep Singh but he seems to have jarred his shoulder in the process. Drops it short, does Bishnoi, on middle. Jacob gets on top of the bounce and pulls it wide of deep square leg. Arshdeep Singh sprints to his right in the deep and as he dives, he gets into a bit of a tangle as he lands awkwardly on his right shoulder. Arshdeep grimaces in pain beyond the sidelines but later gets back up on his feet. 29 runs off the over. A remarkable turnaround in an over.

Starts with an off-pace ball, on a good length, on off. Curran angles it behind point for a single.

SIX! Simply superb from the young man. Rana hurls it on a length, around the off stump from around the wicket. Bethell hangs low to get under the ball and uses the pace to play the reverse scoop over deep third for a six.

On a back of a length, on off. Bethell steers it down to deep third for one.

OUT! CAUGHT! Sam Curran holes out. Full and speared in at the pads. Curran picks it up nicely off the pads and has no intention of keeping it on the ground. The shot was on, but Sam failed to get it wide enough of the fielder in the deep. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi runs to his right from deep backward square leg and leaps to take a good catch at head height.

Into the surface, on off. Archer arches back to play the upper cut but misses.

Wide! Dug in short, over the right shoulder. Archer bails out of the pull shot. Wide given for height. Rana is not happy with the wide call and feels hard done by. Jofra was crouching slightly, but the ball still went comfortably over his head.

Takes pace off and keeps it near the tramline on off, on a short of a length. Archer swings for the hills but gets an inside edge that sneaks past the stumps. It rolls behind on the leg side and the batters cross.

From around the wicket, targeting the off pole, on a good length. Archer brings his bat out in front and taps it back to Arshdeep.

FOUR! Archer gets it away. England are now one big hit away. Bowled into the deck, on middle. Archer hangs back and swipes it away on the leg side. Hits it to the left of the man at deep square leg and picks up a boundary.

Good running. Singh nails the yorker, on middle. Archer gets his bat down and digs it out through square leg. The batters take the first run hard and come charging back for the second. Jofra gets home before Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's throw reaches the keeper.

Another yorker, on the off stump. Jofra jams it out behind point for a single. 3 more needed for England.

Banged into the deck, angled into the left-hander. Bethell swivels and pulls it down to deep fine leg for a single.

That will do nicely for the home side. England ace the chase to go 1-0 up in the series. Arshdeep gets the yorker in from around the wicket, on middle. Archer squeezes it square on the leg side by using his wrists. By the time Vaibhav Sooryavanshi can get around and make an attempt to release the throw, Jofra makes it back for the second run.
