Mixed Disability T20I: England capped off a dominant campaign with a commanding nine-wicket victory over India in the fifth and final T20I of the Mixed Disability Series in Jaipur, on Friday, sealing the series 4–1.
Batting first, India struggled to build momentum and were bowled out for 125 in 19.2 overs. The hosts lost early wickets, with Wasim Iqbal departing cheaply. Akash Singh was the standout performer with the bat for India, scoring a fighting 51 off 43 balls, which included four boundaries and two sixes.
Captain Ravindra Sante also contributed with a brisk 33 off 26 deliveries, trying to steady the innings in the middle overs.
However, England’s disciplined bowling attack kept the pressure on throughout.
