Rohit Sharma's 138 and half-centuries from Virat Kohli (74) and Shubman Gill (77) went in vain as England beat India by 27 runs in the third ODI and seal a 2-1 series win in London on Sunday. After conceding a mammoth 387 for three, India finished at 360/7. Rohit struck 17 fours and five sixes to make 138 off 110 balls, while Kohli made 74 off 60 balls with four fours and three sixes. Gill fell for an 84-ball 77 with 10 fours and a six.
Curran's pace off deliveries at the death accounted for Ishan Kishan, Shreyas Iyer and Kohli in a space of seven deliveries to end any hopes that India would have harboured.Curran got able support from left-arm spinner Jacob Bethell (1/49 in 7 overs), a luxury India never had by playing a lone spinner in Axar Patel. While India lost the series, one thing is for sure: neither Rohit nor Kohli will be going anywhere until the 2027 World Cup in South Africa.Duckett and Bethell were fantastic in terms of planning and execution. The batting powerplay of first 10 overs yielded 58 runs but the wheels came off between overs 11 to 30 when they literally ran the bowlers ragged.
