England vs Italy, 29th Match, Group C, ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 - Player Highlights

Ben Manenti to Jacob Bethell, out Caught by Jaspreet Singh!! Manenti strikes! Italy keep striking in regular intervals. England in a bit of trouble here at 67/3. This was sliding in with the arm, Bethell sits down to play the sweep-pull, the ball bounces more than he expected and the top-edge flies to long leg. Simple catch for Jaspreet. The extra bounce did not allow Bethell to get over the sweep and hence it was a half and half shot. Jacob Bethell c Jaspreet Singh b Ben Manenti 23(20) [4s-2 6s-1]
