India was striving to catch up to England\u2019s total after Suryakumar Yadav<\/a> earned his first century in T20 International cricket. This happened when India\u2019s top-order collapsed. India was six wickets down and Yadav tried to lead his team to victory.<\/p>\n

With this century, Yadav joined Rohit Sharma<\/a>, Suresh Raina<\/a>, KL Rahul<\/a>, and Deepak Hooda<\/a> as the only fifth\u00a0Indian batsman to reach a century in a T20I\u00a0match.<\/p>\n

Yadav has also successfully reached 500 T20I runs during the game, doing it at a strike rate higher than 170.<\/p>\n

India started off aiming for a lofty 216, but were startled when they lost the big three\u2014Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant<\/a>, and Virat Kohli<\/a>\u2014early on. However, Yadav and Shreyas Iyer<\/a> worked brilliantly together and put England on the verge of collapse with a stand of more than 100 runs. Up until Yadav\u2019s dismissal in the penultimate over, when India lost by 17 runs, they were still in the game.<\/p>\n

In the third and final T20 International on Sunday, England chose to bat and finished with a score of 215 for 7. Liam Livingstone<\/a> contributed with 42 not out and Jason Roy with 27, while Dawid Malan led the way with a 39-ball 77 and posted the second-highest total.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
