India beat England by five runs in a thrilling encounter to level the three-match T20I series 1-1 at the VCA Stadium, Nagpur on Sunday.

The umpire has done good job for India. Must have been selected by the Lodha panel. ๐

There is a reason I keep saying @klrahul11 is a special player. The ball just leaves the bat so well. Only needs consistency which will come
