    1.4 nip and extra bounce, and nibbled to the keeper! Outstanding line and length, presenting an upright seam, just back of a good length but it soars off the deck for Buttler to cling on! England draw first blood 9/1
    8.5 brilliant take from Curran in the deep! A wild launch from Rohit, no solid base on his heave through the line, a steepler to wide long-on where Curran scampers in, flings himself forward, and holds on inches from the turf! Rohit is cut short before he can build on his start! 56/2
    17.6 Jordan strikes. Could have disappeared for four on another day. Wide-ish yorker, and Kohli meets it low down, on the full, with an open bat face. Times it nicely, but Adil Rashid dives to his right at short third and takes an excellent, low two-hander 136/4
    11.2 wow, what a moment this is. Adil Rashid may just have bowled the most consequential delivery of this match. Slow legbreak outside off, and SKY steps out, looking to make room. Ends up being too far from the ball to be able to hit it cleanly. I think he's trying to hit over extra-cover, but he ends up slicing the ball much wider than he wants, out to the sweeper at deep cover point. Huge, huge wicket for England 75/3
    19.6 Ah. That runs away to the boundary, but Hardik is out hit-wicket. Again he's way back in his crease, converting a full ball into a length ball on off stump. Whips it with brilliant timing to find the square leg boundary, but in the process of stepping back to play that shot, he's trodden onto his stumps 168/6
    19.3 well done. Excellent delivery, and England pick up a run-out too. Pant sacrifices his wicket there. Wide-ish yorker slanting across Pant, who tries to stab it away but can't connect. Hardik calls him through for a bye, more to cross and get back the strike than anything. Buttler throws to Jordan, who whips off the bails at his end with Pant nowhere in the picture 158/5
