In a big match of ICC WorldCup India beats England by 100 runs
In a thrilling encounter at the World Cup 2023, Team India continued their impressive streak by defeating England by a massive 100-run margin to claim their sixth consecutive win.
In this match held at Lucknow Cricket Stadium, Team India’s bowlers wreaked havoc on England’s batting order, especially on a challenging pitch.
The opening 10 overs set the tone for the match with Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Shami relentlessly attacking England’s top order.
Bumrah started the carnage with two wickets in two balls, and Shami again rattled England.
Notably, Ben Stokes and Joe Root were dismissed for wickets while David Mullan (16) and Jonny Bairstow (14) failed to make substantial contributions.
England struggled throughout their innings, with Ravindra Jadeja also picking up a crucial wicket when he dismissed Chris Woakes for just 10 runs.
The only resistance came from Liam Livingstone, who fought bravely against a formidable Indian bowling attack.
Led by Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav, England found themselves seven down before reaching the hundred in Lucknow.
Earlier in the day, India scored 229 for 9 after England captain Jos Buttler was brought into the field. It was Rohit Sharma’s brilliant innings of 87 runs and Surya Kumar Yadav’s brilliant 49 that laid the foundation for India’s score.
Kuldeep Yadav delivered a mesmerizing delivery to remove Jos Buttler, and Bumrah continued his blistering spell, dismissing David Malan and Joe Root in successive deliveries.
Shami further cemented India’s dominance by picking up the wicket of Jonny Bairstow by cleanly dismissing Ben Stokes.
The contrasting styles of play between India and England have led to dramatically different results in the World Cup, leaving them at opposite ends of the points table. India continued their impressive 100 percent win record.
