Bengaluru, March 20: Bengaluru, March 20: Captain Virat Kohli and his deputy, Rohit Sharma put up a blistering show as India sealed the T20 International series with a 36-run win over England at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Saturday.

After being put into bat, opener Rohit opened the innings with captain Kohli. The duo got the innings off to a blistering start as they guided India to a mammoth total of 224/2.

Rohit was in rampaging form as he scored a blistering 64 off 34. His innings was studded with four boundaries and five huge maximums. Rohit along with Kohli were cruising, before Ben Stokes removed the opener.

Following Rohit’s departure, Kohli shifted gears and took over control. Kohli’s unbeaten knock off 82 came off just 52 deliveries. Suryakumar Yadav played another solid knock as he supported Kohli with a solid knock off 32 off 17.

Following Yadav’s departure, Hardik Pandya pumped up the gas with a 39 off 17 as India posted a huge total of 224/2.

In reply, England lost eight wickets as they failed to chase down the total. Despite Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s first over strike, which saw Jason Roy go for a duck, Dawid Malan and Jos Buttler gave the visitors some hope with solid knocks.

While Malan scored a blistering 68 off 46, Buttler gave the England camp some hope with a solid 52 off 34. But the Indian bowlers kept the hosts in the game with occasional wickets as the game slipped away from the visitors. Following the departure of Buttler and Malan, England crumbled like a pack of cards as India wrapped up a 36-run win to seal the series 3-2.

Here's how the fifth India vs England T20I panned out at the Narendra Modi Stadium.
