India were bowled out for 233 in 44 overs in the second ODI against England at Sophia Gardens, Cardiff, after opting to bat under challenging conditions. England, having won the toss, chose to field first and managed to restrict the Indian batting lineup effectively. Openers Shubman Gill (31) and Rohit Sharma (26) provided a steady start, while Virat Kohli (65) and Shreyas Iyer (66) anchored the innings with impressive half-centuries and a crucial partnership that brought stability to the team.

However, the momentum shifted dramatically after Kohli’s dismissal at 178, as India’s middle order collapsed under pressure. The team lost their last seven wickets for just 55 runs, with Shivam Dube (0), Ishan Kishan (1), and Axar Patel (1) failing to contribute. Jasprit Bumrah added a late flourish, remaining unbeaten on 20 off 13 balls, including three boundaries and a six, helping India reach a modest total.
