Fantabulous over. They don’t want pant to have 6 fours in 6 balls. And pant has different plans. takes a single and keeps the strike. A 4 would have been awesome off last ball but pant is in a different zone today

🥳

Pant started the tour with a hundred in the Headingley Test. Finishes the tour with a hundred at Old Trafford. That century couldn't come in a win, but this century does. An iconic innings - and a partnership to remember between Pant and Hardik Pandya. England acknowledge the Pant effort, a few even patting him on the back. Jadeja is all smiles walking back with Pant.

We won this match and the series!⭐️

Congratulations Team India

Stat alert: Third ODI series defeat for England at home since 2015. All three had a series decider at Old Trafford.

Pandya's 71 runs inning was really crucial and Pant saving the butt of India has nowadays become sort of consistent.

Spare a thought for Reece Topley. When he dismissed Dhawan, Rohit and Virat in quick succession, it looked like England would have a new cult hero, more so after his six-for in the second ODI. But two young padawans stood up when their team needed it the most. A 133-run partnership in just 115 balls between Pant (125*) and Hardik (55-ball 71) and Jadeja got the best seat in the house for a rampaging finish after that. Don't forget Hardik's four-for with the ball either. Good luck to the adjudicators for Player of the Match!

rahul: "Pant-Pandya. Kaif-Yuvraj. Yuvi gets out but Kaif finishing it. Pandya got out, Pant finishing it now. Nostalgia."

Pant's 125* was an amazing inning specially when unlike his nature he took his time rather than smaching the balls in starting 20+ balls.

Team India's top order failure continues.

Our two most experienced players should have taken some time on crease as the target was not that high.

But it looks like both of them aren't interested in spending time on pitch.

Congratulations to team India 🥳
