7 Jul
Summary
- India suffered their largest T20I defeat by 125 runs.
- The team was all out for 76, their second-lowest T20I total.

England secured a commanding 125-run victory against India in the third T20I, taking a 2-0 lead in the series. India's batting order crumbled, managing only 76 runs in response to England's 201 for seven. This marked India's second-lowest T20I total and their largest defeat by margin in the format.
Phil Salt's explosive 70 off 44 balls powered England's imposing score, supported by Sam Curran's unbeaten 41. In reply, India's chase faltered early, with Jofra Archer and Josh Tongue ripping through the lineup. Archer claimed three wickets, including those of Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Shreyas Iyer, while Tongue took four wickets as India lost five wickets within the powerplay.
The Indian team's batting display was a complete capitulation, with no batter reaching 15 runs. This loss extends India's winless streak to five matches, placing significant pressure on them to win the remaining two fixtures.
