India defeated England by 15 runs in the fourth T20I. However, the game made the headlines for the match referee Javagal Srinath allowing pacer Harshit Rana as all-rounder Shivam Dube's concussion substitute in the second innings.

England captain Jos Buttler said Harshit Rana was not a like-for-like replacement for Shivam Dube in the fourth T20I of the five-match series in Pune.

Kevin Pietersen fumed in the commentary box as pacer Harshit Rana replaced Shivam Dube as a concussion substitute in the 4th T20I match of the series. Rana bowled in the second half of the innings and picked up a wicket in his very first over.
