England secured a 26-run victory over India in the third T20 International on Tuesday as some sprightly bowling kept the tourists alive in the five-match series against the world champions. Put into bat,

England collapse from 83-1 to 127-8 before rallying somewhat to set India 172 to win; Adil Rashid (1-15) claims key wicket of in-form Tilak Varma (18) as hosts limp to 146-9 in reply; England trail 2-1 in the five-match series,

Wood was also among the powerplay wickets, before Rashid produced a ripping delivery to clean up the in-form Tilak Varma. The batter had made 336 runs between T20I dismissals, a run stretching back to successive unbeaten hundreds against South Africa last year. Rashid, though, did not give up a boundary in his spell.
