England’s run chase started on a positive note, but they lost wickets rapidly. Hales failed to read Shaheen Afridi’s in-swinging delivery and lost his precious wicket. Skipper Jos Buttler played aggressively but he departed early by adding just 26 runs including three fours and one six. Phil Salt, who made 10 from nine deliveries and joined Buttler in the dressing room. England was in massive trouble when Harry Brook lost his wicket for 26. This slowed down England’s batting, making the required run rate close to nine per over.

Well, this is not the first time that England became the world t20 champions. England was the winner of the T20 World Cup 2010. Moreover, England became the first non-Asian team to win the T20 World Cup in 2010.
