India Break Multiple Records As Abhishek Sharma Punishes England In 5th T20I

The Indian cricket team scripted history during its fifth and final T20I match against England at Wankhede Stadium on Sunday.

Boundaries were flowing all-around the park, thanks to terrific hitting from Abhishek as he reached his fifty in only 17 balls. By the end of powerplay, the southpaw reached the score of 58 off only 21 balls. Meanwhile, Tilak Varma scored 19 off 8 balls and Sanju Samson, who was dismissed in the powerplay, hit 16 off 7 balls during the first six overs of India's play.

England Captain Jos Buttler's "Impact Sub" Dig After Harshit Rana Concussion Substitute Controversy

England captain Jos Buttler has taken a harsh dig at the Indian cricket team following the concussion substitute controversy in the fourth T20I in Pune. India all-rounder Shivam Dube got hit on his helmet on the penultimate delivery of the hosts' innings. He was checked by the physio before continuing to bat. Dube got run out on the very next ball which also happened to be the final ball of the Indian innings. During the innings break, the all-rounder was replaced by pacer Harshit Rana as a concussion substitute. The move sparked a huge debate as ICC rules state that a concussion substitute has to be a like-for-like replacement.

"Such People Are Allowed Failures": Ex-India Star Backs Sanju Samson

Former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar backed wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson to be allowed "long patch of failures" because of the impact he can make when he is in form. Samson's inconsistent run in T20Is continues as after three centuries in five innings across five innings against Bangladesh and South Africa, he has been troubled by the high-quality pace of Jofra Archer, who has dismissed him thrice in this ongoing series. He has scored just 35 runs in four innings at an average of 8.75, with best score of 26.
