Third T20 match between England and India in Rajkot.

In the third T20 match between England and India in Rajkot, India lost by 26 runs. England, after losing the toss, batted first and scored 171 runs, losing 9 wickets in 20 overs. In response, India, chasing a target of 172 runs, could only manage 145 runs. This loss came as an unexpected shock to the Indian team. After the match, Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav commented on his team's defeat. He highlighted England's spinner Adil Rashid's bowling as a key factor. “Adil Rashid gave only 15 runs in his four overs and dismissed Tilak Varma. His superb bowling turned the match around,” said Suryakumar. "I thought the pitch would be better in the second innings."

While Hardik Pandya and Axar Patel were batting, I felt the match was in our hands. However, Adil Rashid turned the game in England's favor by dismissing the aggressive Tilak Varma. He is truly a world-class bowler. He deserves credit," Suryakumar said. Regarding India's batting, he mentioned that the pitch was favorable to spinners, making it difficult to chase the target, and that there was a need to learn more from their batting performance.

“We will learn lessons from this defeat,” he added. England captain Jos Buttler said, "Our bowlers did an outstanding job. Adil Rashid is a key player in our team. He has various techniques in his bowling. Jofra Archer is also a good bowler. His strength is his consistency. Rashid and Mark Wood added valuable runs at the end, which benefited the team." Buttler also stated, "In England's victory, the skill and experience of our bowlers played a crucial role."
