Indian cricketers Shivam Dube and Hardik Pandya set a great partnership example in the hard time of Indian batting during the Pune T20I against England. They set a T20I world record partnership against England for the lower wickets.

Shivam Dube and Hardik Pandya produced an 87-run partnership for the 6th wicket

While hosts India were struggling at 79/5 at one stage during the Pune T20I, Indian middle-order batters Shivam Dube and Hardik Pandya set an unforgettable partnership for the sixth wicket. They produced an 87-run partnership for the sixth wicket, which set a new record for the highest T20I partnership for fifth or lower wickets for any team against England.

The Indian duo broke the T20I partnership record of Australian cricketers Aaron Finch and Ashton Agar's 86-run sixth wicket partnership against England which was recorded during the 2018 Birmingham T20I.

With the help of the crucial partnership for the sixth wicket, India managed to reach a total of 181/9 in 20 overs. While Pandya scored 53 off 30 balls, Dube scored 53 off 34 balls. Dube later won the Player of the Match award for playing a heroic knock.
