India won the second T20I against England in Nagpur in the most thrilling manner. India batted first and scored 144 runs. Many felt that it was below par score and with so many big hitters in the line-up, it looked like an easy walk in the park for England.
But, Ashish Nehra bowled a brilliant first spell and took 2 wickets in his first 2 overs. It was Nehra’s disciplined spell of bowling that didn’t allow England to start aggressively and kept India in the game right from the first over.
