"England came down to play with such a big run target and snatched the victory from India".

England captain Morgan did not play today but Buttler replaced him as captain. England went down to the ball and started to bowl hard in the early days so the run speed in the early days of India was very low.
India did not do well in the first powerplay and the second powerplay. At first Dhawan, Rohit could not do well. They get out quickly. Then Virat Kohli came and took the helm of the match but went out of the field with half a hundred runs.
Then KL Rahul and Rishav Panth grabbed the match tightly. The two also form a good partnership so that the run rate increases towards the end and at the end of 50 overs they take the place of a good run.
