India Suffers Worst T20I Defeat as Archer & Tongue Blow Them Away at Trent Bridge

India suffered their worst-ever T20 defeat, losing by 125 runs against England at Trent Bridge on Tuesday. India collapsed to 76 all out in just 12 overs, while England posted 201-7, with Phil Salt scoring a notable 70. Fast bowlers Jofra Archer and Josh Tongue were dominant, both recording figures above 90 mph (145 kmh), which tore through the Indian top order. This defeat surpassed India’s previous record run-loss in a T20 by 80 runs against New Zealand in 2019 and followed their series loss to Ireland earlier that month.

Archer bowled at 90 mph (145 kmh) bouncer, hitting teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi for six. Tongue also delivered devastating bowling, taking wickets of Shreyas Iyer and Axar Patel as India crumbled from 52-5 in just five overs. England’s Adil Rashid took two late wickets to secure the victory. Salt played a crucial role with an unbeaten 36-ball fifty, contributing significantly to the total.
