The second game of the T20I series between England and India will be played on July 9 at Edgbaston in Birmingham. India currently lead the three-match series by a 1-0 margin.

It was a solid performance from the Indian side in the first T20I to get an early lead in the series. Indian skipper Rohit Sharma won the toss and opted to bat first. The decision paid off as they got off to a flying start. Hardik Pandya scored a fifty to take his team to 198 on the board.

Mooen Ali and Chris Jordan picked up two wickets each, with the latter giving away only 23 runs in his four overs.

The English side had the worst possible start to the chase. Their batters never got going as they kept losing wickets at regular intervals.

Mooen Ali top-scored with 36 for them but a lack of contributions from the other batters resulted in them getting knocked over on 148, losing the game by 50 runs. Hardik Pandya starred with the ball, finishing with four wickets.

The English side were outplayed in the opening game of the T20I series. They will have to step up and fire in unison to keep the series alive.

The Indians have been playing fantastic cricket in recent times in the shortest format and will be eager to win the series on Saturday itself.
