Match Day
Adil Rashid's simple trick to wreck India's batting
England legspinner's changes of pace proved crucial in stopping the hosts from chasing 172 in Rajkot
ICC rankings: Adil Rashid No. 1 again, Varun Chakravarthy climbs to fifth among T20I bowlers
Tilak Varma closed in on Travis Head's top spot in T20I batting by going up from third place to No. 2
Shami back without a bang, but it's still a big deal for India
He bowled three solid overs, in the mid 130s or thereabouts, and all the damage to England was done elsewhere. Still, both India and Shami will be breathing a sigh of relief
Preview
Will England have an answer to India's spinners in Rajkot?
Visitors are clear underdogs against an Indian side that has lost only two of the 17 T20Is since their T20 World Cup triumph
