New Delhi: The Indian team suffered a crushing defeat in the second ODI against England on Wednesday (July 14). In this match played at Lord's, India had got a target of 247 to win, but the Rohit brigade failed to achieve it. Team India was bowled out for just 146 in this match and suffered a crushing defeat by 100 runs in the match. With this defeat, the three-match ODI series has now been levelled at 1-1 and the result of the series will be out from the match on July 17.

The hero of this match for England was Reece Topley, who took 6 wickets for just 24 runs in 9.5 overs and broke the back of Indian batting. Topley showed the way to the pavilion for the strong batsmen like Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Suryakumar Yadav and in the end also hunted down Mohammed Shami, Yuzvendra Chahal and Prasidh Krishna. Team India's batsmen disappointed everyone in this match. Captain Rohit Sharma could not even open the account, and Shikhar Dhawan also returned to the pavilion after scoring just 9 runs. Rishabh Pant 0, Virat Kohli got out after scoring 16 runs and Team India's top order was shattered like a pack of cards. Actually, the bowlers were getting help on the Lord's pitch, for which the batsmen of Team India had no answer.

India lost their four wickets at the score of 31, after which Hardik Pandya-Suryakumar Yadav handled a few innings, but they also lost their wickets cheaply and India had to take 6 wickets for 101. The 39-run partnership between Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Shami took Team India's innings forward for a while. But it proved insufficient to win. In fact, Team India's decision to bowl first in this match proved to be right. Half of the England team had returned to the pavilion at 102, in the end, the tail-end batsmen took over the England innings.  

Jonny Bairstow and Jason Roy got off to a good start for England, but at the score of 41, the team got its first blow. England's top order flopped, so in the end, Moeen Ali (47), and David Willey (41) runs barely bailed out their team. For India, Yuzvendra Chahal took four wickets for 47 runs in 10 overs, apart from him Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya took two wickets each.

Pakistani captain tweeted about Kohli's disappointing performance, know what he said?

"Talent that Allah gave to Rohit Sharma, did not give to Kohli...''
