Josh Price added stability with a well-judged 29, before Henry John accelerated at the death, finishing unbeaten on 30 from 17 balls. Captain Callum Flynn remained calm under pressure, ending on 20 not out as England crossed the line.

India’s bowlers showed commendable fight, with Ravindra Sante and Vivek Kumar claiming key wickets, but England’s depth and composure proved decisive.

The five-wicket win gives England a 2–1 advantage in the series. The final two matches will be played in Jaipur, where India will look to regroup and force a decider.
