Player of the Match

4.13pm It's not 481, or 444... but it is 268. I doubt it's enough, but we can but wait and see...

Imran: "268 is a total collapse in modern day cricket but few years back it was a decent ODI total, Let see if india can collapse to make this game interesting. "

It was a curious mishmash of an innings ... a solid start against the seamers from Roy and Bairstow, contrasting fifties from Buttler and Stokes, and handy cameos from Moeen and Rashid at the death. But Kuldeep Yadav's illegible variations were too much for England, not least Joe Root, whose form is suddenly a legitimate concern.

WATCH - Kuldeep's career-best 6 for 25 (India only)

WATCH - Rashid departs after a cameo (India only)

49.5

Yadav to Plunkett, 1 run, OUT, a wide yorker, stabbed to third man, Plunkett wanted to be on strike for the last ball, but Dhoni whips off the bails. England are all out with one ball left unused.

LE Plunkett run out 10 (6b 1x4 0x6) SR: 166.66

49.4

Yadav to Plunkett, 2 runs, flogged to the leg side again, the reverse into the leg side does enough to put Plunkett off his stroke

49.3

Yadav to Plunkett, FOUR, pumped over mid-off! Umesh was sizing up the yorker, but there was just enough leverage to allow Plunkett to fling his bat through the line

49.2

Yadav to Rashid, OUT, a fine-looking shot from Rashid, another low full-toss, drilled high and hard over the covers ... but straight to deep cover who doesn't have to move to swallow the chance

AU Rashid c Pandya b Yadav 22 (16b 1x4 1x6) SR: 137.50
