Shreyas Iyer won the toss and elected to field first in the 5th T20I against England, but not even in his wildest dreams would the Indian skipper have thought that his team would concede in excess of 250 runs. Such was India’s day as all the bowlers were taken apart, and it was the Harry Brook-Jos Buttler show in Southampton.

Phil Salt departed early, and that was the last time the Indian bowlers smiled as the pair of Brook and Buttler (The B&B pair) blew away the Indian bowlers and registered the highest T20I partnership for any wicket for England.

While Jos Buttler smacked 131 off just 64 balls, Brook remained unbeaten on 95 as the Three Lions tore apart the Indian attack and registered 257/3 on the board.

The dynamic English pair were at their absolute best against India, and here are all the records broken by Brook and Buttler in their 5th T20I onslaught.
