Wicketkeeper batter Rishabh Pant slammed an unbeaten century while Hardik Pandya’s all-rounder show propelled team India to a series win against England in Manchester.
After winning the series opener at Kennington Oval, London, team India got derailed as England made a tremendous comeback in the second match to level the three matches ODI series. However, consistent batting from the Indian middle order in the third match at Old Trafford helped the visitors to secure a series victory in England’s own backyard.
Meanwhile, team India also managed to secure the T20I series on the England tour. The visitors won the opening two T20Is to win the series.
