India and Abhishek continue their dominance in the fifth T20I 

The Indian team is in a great position so far with Abhishek Sharma continuing with the onslaught after bringing up the second-fastest century for an Indian batter in T20Is and continued attacking the England bowlers who have looked ordinary on the day.

As of writing the Indian score is currently on 219-6 after 17 overs. With three overs still to go Abhishek is currently unbeaten on 120 off just 49 deliveries and is batting with vice-captain and star all-rounder Axar Patel.

Meanwhile, the series is already claimed by India after winning a thrilling game at the MCA Stadium, in Pune which went down to the last over. India are currently leading the series 3-1 while England are playing for pride in hopes of at least finishing the already lost series on a high which will be the aim for Jos Buttler and his men who might have shown some glimpses of brilliance in the series but failed to cash on in the crucial moments.
