India, Jan. 26 -- England's struggles against spin continued in the second T20I of the series against India on Saturday, with six batters falling to spinners. Varun Chakaravarthy (2 wickets) continued to make life difficult for the England batters, while Axar Patel (2 wickets), Washington Sundar (1 wicket) and even Abhishek Sharma (1 wicket) troubled England.

The visitors were all at sea in the opening T20I where they could only score 132; in the second match, the Jos Buttler-led side played with a more aggressive intent, not hesitating to attempt audacious shots against the Indian spinners. While England did reach 165/9 in their 20 overs, they failed to stitch partnerships, with Indian spinners outfoxing them at regular intervals.
