England collapsed to 129 all out in a chase of 230 in Lucknow amid a haze of frantic and tentative strokes as they failed to cope with India's relentless and world-class bowling attack, especially Mohammed Shami (4-22), after being destroyed for 170 by South Africa the previous weekend and 156 by Sri Lanka on Thursday. Table toppers Liam Livingstone (27) led England in scoring. With six victories in a row, India forced their opponents—who have now dropped their last four games—to drop to the bottom of the standings, trailing Bangladesh in net run-rate.
