India remains undefeated leading up to this crucial encounter, setting the stage for a thrilling showdown between two cricketing giants. The Indian bowlers are on a roll. Moeen Ali’s exciting dismissal added an extra flavor in that.
After losing some crucial wickets initially, England is under pressure. In the 8th over, Axar Patel came to bowl and Moeen Ali was on the strike. Axar Patel delivered a length ball aimed at the leg stump. Moeen Ali, attempting to work it into the leg side, felt it brush his pad.

Chasing the target of 172 runs, England is on the back foot already. In the 13th over, they are standing on 73/7.
