Match 10: India Humiliate England

India scored an above par 170 runs while being sent to bat first. With 165 runs being the average score on the ground, India can feel happy despite a batting approach that made fans feel as if Indians want to keep wickets safe to deposit in bank account. None could understand why Indians did not attack enough despite being in strong position. England’s best chase is 173 runs, so the match is within their grasp unless they over-attack. Bhaji and Piyush Chawla made English players literally dance and folded them for 80 runs.
