India vs England 2018 - 5 reasons why India lost their 2nd T20I

#3 India missed Bumrah’s death over expertise

Bumrah wasn't there when India needed him the most

He is arguably the best limited-overs bowler in the world right now. Jasprit Bumrah has been superb for India in the last 12 months, playing a stellar role in their ODI and T20 success. Unfortunately, he was ruled out of the series because of an injury.

With five wickets in hand, England needed 20 runs to win in the final two overs. Umesh Yadav did well to bowl some good yorkers, though in the penultimate over, Bhuvneshwar Kumar was way off the radar. He bowled length, which made it really easy for Alex Hales to hit the winning runs.

Bumrah is India’s death over expert in limited-overs cricket for quite some time and his absence proved costly on Friday. He has won us games from similar situations in the past, but without him, India failed to defend a decent score in the second T20I.
