IND vs ENG 2022: England registers lowest total against India in ODIs; big cheer for Bumrah
India has given a hard time to England in The Oval ODI on Tuesday. The hosts were bundled out for 110, with Jasprit Bumrah bagging a six-for.
FollowTeam India rightfully carried its momentum from the recently-concluded three-match Twenty20 International (T20I) against England. In the opening ODI against the same side at The Oval in London on Tuesday, the visitors came up with a dynamic performance with the ball, rattling the hosts out for 110, which happened to be their lowest ODI total against the former. Pacer Jasprit Bumrah was the star of the Indian bowling attack, finishing with impressive figures of 6/19, while English wicketkeeper-batter cum skipper Jos Buttler (30) was the top scorer. At the same time, social media was all delighted by it.
Indian captain Rohit Sharma opted to bowl after winning the toss, citing the green track and overcast conditions. It turned out to be the perfect decision, as England began on a horror note, losing half of its side for just 26 by the eighth over of the powerplay, with Bumrah bagging four of them.
