England Cricket Team yet again came up with a brilliant show in the shortest format of the game. The stunning century by Dawid Malan and the brilliant knock from Eoin Morgan helped England to post a massive 241 runs on the board in 4th T20I game against New Zealand.

Initially, it was New Zealand, who won the toss, asked England to bat first. The first three overs of the game was completely dominated by Kiwis bowlers, as they never allowed English batsman to swing their arms. It was followed by the wicket of Jonny Bairstow in the fourth over, which gave England to take breath freely.

Dawid Malan-Eoin Morgan added 182 runs partnership:

Though Tom Banton displayed a few brilliant strokes, once again, Mitchell Santner delivered the goods by trapping him plumb in front of the wicket. However, then came the partnership of Dawid Malan and Eoin Morgan, which completely changed the complexion of the game.

The duo added 182-run partnership for the fourth wicket to break quite a few records in the history books. Eoin Morgan smashed 91 runs off 41 balls, which include 7 boundaries and 7 sixes to his name while Dawid Malan finished with a superb century of 103*.

Dawid Malan scored 9 boundaries and 6 Sixes to his name in order to bring his maiden century in the T20I format. The brilliant show from the duo helped England to register 241 runs on the board. For Kiwis, Mitchell Santner picked 2 wickets while Southee bagged one wicket.

The partnership was broken in the final over of England’s innings when Morgan holed a low full-toss to deep cover. By the time Morgan was dismissed the pair had added 182 runs for the third wicket. As a result of those two brilliant knocks, England also posted their highest T20I total (241/3) surpassing the total of 230/8 they scored against South Africa in 2016.
