Ravi Bishnoi removes Harry Brook for 8
Brook has been in the headlines during the ongoing T20I series but not due to his on-field performances. He has become the talk of the town following his bizarre remark where he blamed the 'smog' in Kolkata for his failure with the bat. He only managed to score 17 runs off 14 balls before being bowled by a wrong'un from Varun Chakravarthy.
At the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk, Chennai, where there was smog, Brook failed again as he was dismissed for 13 runs by Varun Chakravarthy.
The same story continued for Brook in the third T20I as he was able to score only 8 runs off 10 balls before taking a long walk back to the pavilion.
On the 4th ball of the 13th over, leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi bowled a tossed-up delivery to Brook around off-stump, and the batter went for a sweep. He wasn't able to make a good connection with the ball and only managed to drag it back onto the stumps. Bishnoi passed on a cheeky smile looking at Harry Brook after taking the wicket.
Notably, the wicket of Brook was the first one for Ravi Bishnoi in the ongoing T20I series as in the first two matches, he bowled economical spells but wasn't able to get wickets.

Who Were the Top Performers for India in the Second T20I?
India won the thrilling second T20I in Chennai against England by 2 wickets, thanks to some brilliant performances. Tilak Varma emerged as the star with the bat.
His unbeaten 72 off 55 balls steadied the innings and sealed the win in a tense chase. Varma showed remarkable composure, hitting four four and five sixes, even as wickets fell around him. He kept his calm under pressure, and his performance earned him the Player of the Match award.
On the bowling front, Indian spinners played a crucial role in restricting England to 165/9. Axar Patel delivered an impactful performance, taking 2/32 in his four overs. Varun Chakravarthy also impressed with his spin bowling, claiming 2/38, including the important wicket of Harry Brook.
The all-rounder Washington Sundar had a memorable outing in front of his home crowd, picking up a wicket on his first ball, and with the bat, he chipped in with a valuable 26 off 19 balls.
