India's Last T20I Series Loss to England: A 2014 Flashback
Before their recent defeat, India had not lost a bilateral T20I series against England since a solitary match in 2014.
It was 2014 when India last tasted a T20I series defeat against England, a single-match affair that ended in a heartbreaking three-run loss. England, batting first, posted 180 runs behind Eoin Morgan's blistering 71 off just 26 balls. Mohammad Shami's 3 for 38 wasn't enough to contain the hosts.
India's chase suffered early setbacks, but Virat Kohli and Shami fought hard before falling short. That defeat marked the start of a remarkable unbeaten run in bilateral T20I series against England—until the recent series under Shreyas Iyer's captaincy ended that streak. The 2014 match remains a stark reminder of how quickly fortunes can change.
