5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

England batsman Joe Root reflects on a historic run chase from his side at the World T20. England pulled off the second-highest chase in Twenty20 international history to stun South Africa and get their competition campaign back on track. Chasing 230 in Mumbai, Root struck a composed 44-ball 83 after Jason Roy blitzed 43 from 16 deliveries. England lost two wickets in the last over with the scores level before Moeen Ali sealed it with two balls to spare. This clip is from 5 live Sport on Friday 18 March 2016.
