Team India is currently locking horns with England in the series decider of the three-match series with the series level at 1-1. India made 3 changes in the squad with KL Rahul, Umesh Yadav and Siddharth Kaul replaced by Dinesh Karthik, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Shardul Thakur respectively, while England faced a forced change of James Vince replacing injured Jason Roy. The toss was won by the English skipper Eoin Morgan and he decided to bowl first and his decision became quite accurate up to some extent as the men in blue were restricted to 256/8 after their quota of 50 overs.

During the chase, the English team had a brisk start but it was put on halt in the 10th over of the chase as MS Dhoni affected a magical runout. Despite receiving criticism for is slow batting strike-rate, its difficult to keep MS out of the game, especially as a wicket-keeper.

The dismissal of the English opener James Vince wouldn’t have been a reality with many other wicket-keepers in the world. Dhoni rushed in to collect the throw from midwicket, he was off balance during the collection with his right glove off, but still, he managed to remove the bails in a single motion. It was a magnificent effort from Mahi, but a lot of credit for the wicket should also go to Hardik Pandya, who swooped in on this backfoot push quickly and fired the ball.
