England Beat India by 27 Runs to Clinch ODI Series Despite Rohit Sharma’s Heroic 138

England beat India by 27 runs in 3rd ODI

England defeated India by 27 runs in a thrilling third ODI at Lord’s to seal the three-match series 2-1.

Chasing a daunting 388, India fought bravely but finished on 360/7 despite Rohit Sharma’s sensational 138, the first ODI century by an Indian batter at Lord’s. Shubman Gill (77) and Virat Kohli (74) also made valuable contributions in a 147-run opening stand and a strong middle-order effort. However, Jacob Bethell’s economical spell and Sam Curran’s four-wicket haul triggered India’s collapse from 260/1 to 329/7.

Earlier, Ben Duckett’s superb 141 and Jacob Bethell’s 91 powered England to 387/3, with Jos Buttler’s late blitz proving decisive in the series-clinching victory.
