Who Won The Match Yesterday 2021: A Look Back at India’s Thrilling Victory Over England

For cricket fans across India, the question “Who won the match yesterday?” on March 29, 2021, was met with a wave of national pride. The day before, on March 28, the Indian cricket team had sealed a spectacular series win against England in the third and final One Day International (ODI) at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune.

The match was a rollercoaster of emotions. England, batting first, set a challenging target of 259 runs, largely powered by a valiant 57 from Dawid Malan. The Indian bowlers, however, kept taking crucial wickets at regular intervals, with Shardul Thakur and Bhuvneshwar Kumar applying the brakes on the English innings.

The real drama unfolded during India’s chase. After a solid start from the top order, the middle overs saw a mini-collapse that had fans on the edge of their seats. Just when nerves were fraying, two stalwarts of Indian cricket, Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya, stepped up. Their unbeaten partnership guided India home with ease in the end. Pant, in particular, was magnificent, smashing a match-winning 78 not out, while Pandya provided the perfect support with a composed 64.

This victory was significant as it capped off a successful home season for India, having already won the Test series against the same opponents. The win in the final ODI, clinching the series 2-1, was a testament to the team’s resilience and depth. So, for those asking “Who won the match yesterday in 2021?”—it was a day when Men in Blue emerged triumphant, giving their fans a memorable Sunday to cherish.
