  • Chahal has had his say on England's performance in Cardiff.

    England took ‘calculated risks’ in playing Kuldeep Yadav which sealed victory in the second T20I, according to India leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal.

    Eoin Morgan’s troops leveled the three-match series ahead of Sunday’s decider after Alex Hales’ unbeaten 58 clinched a five-wicket victory on Friday.

    It was the perfect response from the hosts after Yadav had claimed five wickets in the opening game and Chahal insisted Morgan’s troops were more cautious in dealing with his team-mate.

    “Kuldeep bowled really well in the last game but in this game they played him more carefully. They chose which delivery they wanted to play or not play,” he said. “I think with a score of 150 if we took it to the last over then we bowled well.”

    “In the last game they made too many mistakes. They took calculated risks here, didn’t hit against him in the first three overs but in the last over because we also had a chance to win (the England batsmen went after him).”
