Buttler and Brook Sparkle as England Goes Top of T20 Rankings with Clean Sweep over India
Buttler and Brook shared an unbroken 215-run stand as England’s 257 set a new men’s T20I record against India, officials said.
- On Saturday in Southampton, England captain Jos Buttler scored 131 runs off 64 balls against India, delivering one of his finest T20 performances with 12 fours and eight sixes.
- Alongside Harry Brook, Buttler stitched together an unbroken 215-run stand for the second wicket, powering England to 257 runs and the top T20 ranking after beating India by 56 runs.
- India's former vice-captain Axar Patel endured his toughest T20 spell, conceding 63 runs across four overs without a wicket, while dropped catches by Shivam Dube and Ishan Kishan proved costly for the Indian side.
- Buttler's 131 eclipsed Evin Lewis's 125 as the highest individual T20I score against India, while the partnership broke the previous second-wicket record held by Sanju Samson and Tilak Varma.
- England's dominance was evident as their bowling attack restricted India to 201-8, with all-rounder Sam Curran taking 3-36 and leg-spinner Adil Rashid claiming 2-24 to secure a 56-run victory.
