Skipper Shreyas Iyer acknowledged India’s shortcomings in execution as England clinched the T20I series with a convincing nine-wicket win. Despite Iyer’s resilient 80 off 49 balls, India’s batting collapse limited them to 158/7 in 20 overs.
England easily chased down the target of 159, with Brook and Salt’s unbeaten 151-run partnership steering them to victory in just 13.5 overs. This marks England’s first bilateral T20I series win against India in two or more games.
Reflecting on the loss, Iyer emphasized the importance of learning from mistakes during India’s transition phase. He expressed disappointment over personal performance not translating into a team victory and stressed the need for quick adaptation in overseas conditions.
