India suffered another batting collapse in the fourth T20I against England in Bristol, allowing the hosts to take the series with a comfortable chase of 159. The defeat underlined India’s repeated struggles to build partnerships through the innings.
Shreyas Iyer stood out with an unbeaten 80, providing the backbone of India’s total. However, the rest of the batting line-up failed to offer enough support, leaving India short of a more challenging score.
England made light work of the target and completed the chase quickly to close out the contest. Their confident finish reflected the control they maintained after restricting India to a below-par total.
The result sealed the series for England and deepened concerns over India’s batting consistency in the format. With only Iyer making a major contribution, India were left to reflect on another missed opportunity.
