India produced a brilliant game in the second T20I when they defeated England by 49 runs at Edgbaston, on Saturday, July 9. This had given them an unassailed 2-0 lead of the three-match T20I series. The third match will be played on Sunday today.

The game also saw the return of Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja. These players were given rest during the 1st T20I. Among them, Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja were the key players in India’s win over the host.

When India was asked to bat, they started well before losing quick wickets. But Ravindra Jadeja saved them with his 46-run knock to help India post 170 runs. Virat Kohli could score only one run before the Dawid Malan caught his ball.

When Indian players walked out to field, at one point, Kohli was seen interacting with the crowd as he stood on the long boundary. He even danced with the dans between deliveries.

England could score only 121 run before getting bundled out by the Indian bowlers. Jasprit Bumrah created a world record when he bowled a maiden over, which is most by a bowler in the hsitory of T20I. Bumrah picked three wickets while Bhuvneshwar Kumar picked four wickets.

Amidst Kohli’s lean patch, his childhood coach Rajkumar Sharma said he doesn’t support the remarks made by Kapil Dev on dropping Kohli from the T20I’s team XI.

“I do not support the statements made by Kapil Dev on Virat Kohli. Nothing big happened with Virat that such kind of statement has been issued. Why is there so much hurry with Virat, he has done so well for the century. Making 70 international centuries is not a small thing. I do not think the board will make a decision to have him sit on the bench,” Rajkumar said to ANI.

Earlier, Kapil Dev stated that if Ravichandran Ashwin with nearly 450 Test wickets can be dropped from Test, then the management should drop Virat Kohli also because of his lean patch. He stated that the in-form players should be included in the playing XI by ignoring the reputation of the senior players if they failed help the team in many matches.
