Suryakumar Yadav smashed 57 and India's bowlers stifled England's batters in a tense finale to claim an eight-run victory in the fourth Twenty20 international Thursday that leveled the five-match series at 2-2.

India 185/8 in 20 overs (S Yadav 57, S Iyer 37, J Archer 4/33) beat England 177/8 in 20 overs (B Stokes 46, J Roy 40, S Thakur 3/42, H Pandya 2/16, R Chahar 2/35)

India vs England 4th T20I Match Report 

Eoin Morgan won the toss and India started strongly with Rohit Sharma hitting a six off the first ball of the innings. However, the host team lost openers K.L. Rahul and Rohit, without the two making much of an impression. The opening pair put on 21 before Rohit Sharma was caught and bowled off a slower ball. 

Suryakumar Yadav, who got off the mark in international cricket with a six over fine leg, hit three sixes and smashed six fours. He followed his Mumbai Indians teammate Ishan Kishan to score a half-century on debut. Kishan achieved the feat in the second T20 International on March 14.

Skipper Virat Kohli, batting at No. 4 and a slot below Yadav, could make just one but Rishabh Pant chipped in with 30 off 23 balls.
