MS Dhoni interacts with Indian players after win over England in 2nd T20I

BIRMINGHAM: Team India registered a thumping win over England in the second T20I here on Saturday, after which former skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who is in England these days, was seen interacting with the Indian players.

After India put up 170/8 on the board, the visitors' pace attack, led by Bhuvneshwar Kumar (3/15) and Jasprit Bumrah (2/10), feasted on English batters and delivered match-winning spells to help the visitors clinch the T20I series. Captain Rohit Sharma (31) and Ravindra Jadeja (46*) were the chief contributors with the bat for India.

England were bowled out for 121 runs within 17 overs, conceding a 49-run defeat. India had won the first T20I of the three-match series by 50 runs.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) tweeted the priceless moments when Dhoni shared some tips with the youngsters.

"Always all ears when the great @msdhoni talks!" tweeted BCCI.

In the pictures, spinner Yuzvendra Chahal and wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan were among others who could be seen listening to Dhoni's advice.

Chasing the Indian total on Saturday, England had an extremely disappointing day. The attacking batting line-up could not live up to its hype again, fizzling out in front of Indian pacers.

Only Moeen Ali (35) and David Willey (33*) could put up some decent scores next to their names.
