Mixed Disability T20I: England held their nerve in a measured run chase to secure a five-wicket victory over India in the third Mixed Disability T20I at the Shahid Vijay Pathik Stadium, moving 21 ahead in the five-match series.

Englands bowlers maintained control throughout, with Jordan Williams leading a disciplined attack that struck regularly and prevented India from breaking free in the closing overs. In reply, England paced the chase expertly, reaching the target at 148 for 5 with just one ball to spare. Wicketkeeper Angus Garant Brown set the tone at the top with a blistering 61 off 28 deliveries, an innings laced with five boundaries and six towering sixes that put immediate pressure on the Indian attack.
