England's bowlers inspired a 26-run win in the third T20 international against India in Rajkot that keeps the five-match series alive, the tourists trailing 2-1. Another ugly England batting collapse against spin - Varun Chakravarthy taking 5-24 to take his tally to 10 wickets across the opening three games - saw Jos Buttler's side staring at a series defeat with two to play as the visitors slumped from 83-1 to 127-8 before a late flurry from Liam Livingstone .
Any giddy excitement elicited from England's players would have been tempered by the sight of Tilak still at the crease, fresh from hitting an unbeaten 318 across his previous four T20 international innings, including a magnificent 72 off 55 balls that saw his side home in the second match of the series. But up stepped Rashid, finally seeing off the classy left-handed operater with the perfect leg break delivery to beat his defences in the eighth over.
