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

Will Jacks to Ben Manenti, out Caught by Tom Banton!! Ben Manenti holes out and Will Jacks blows his cheeks in relief. He was absolutely on fire was Manenti. This is well-bowled. Slower and wider outside off, the adrenaline was pumping and he couldn't resist himself. Since this is wide outside off, he has to reach for the loft, right off the bottom of the bat and Banton comes in from long-on to take a pressure catch. England would be a happy side at the moment, Manenti really had them under the pump. End of a sensational knock. Walks back to a standing ovation.
