#3 Batting collapse

England's batting has failed them throughout the series as they succumbed to their 3rd straight loss in the series.

Chasing 297 in 20 overs, England lost Jason Roy (8) cheaply but an explosive 47 off 24 balls from opener Alex Hales and 59 off 40 Dawid Malan gave England some hope but they didn't get sufficient support as the required run rate steadily climbed.

The wickets of Hales, James Vince and Jos Buttler in quick succession through the middle overs proved crucial.

David Willey (21) played a cameo towards the end but overall, England completely lost the plot and kept losing wickets at regular intervals.

Eventually, they could manage just 184 runs in 20 overs and lost the match by 12 runs.
