**Chennai, India –** India secured a nail-biting two-wicket win over England in the second T20I at Chennai tonight. Chasing a challenging 166, India’s victory hinged on a magnificent unbeaten 72 from Tilak Varma. The southpaw’s 55-ball knock, studded with four fours and five sixes, steered India home despite a mid-innings wobble that saw regular wickets fall.
England, invited to bat first by India captain Suryakumar Yadav, posted a competitive 165 for 9. Jos Buttler continued his impressive form with a 30-ball 45, while Brydon Carse provided a late flourish with a quickfire 31 off 17. However, a lack of substantial contributions from other batsmen hampered England’s total. Axar Patel and Varun Chakravarthy led India’s bowling attack, each claiming two wickets. The thrilling contest keeps the series alive ahead of the final match.
