- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.3 No feet. Big drive with no feet. Looking to cover-drive this on the up, but he doesn't get close to this length ball. The ball moves in a touch, takes the inside edge, and flattens the middle stump 16/19.3 scratchy, jumpy innings from Dhawan comes to an end. It is short enough and wide enough to be cut, but the extra bounce means it takes the top edge through to Holder at first slip 42/33.5 oh man, when it is not your Wednesday, chances are, it is not your Friday either. He has nicked a leg-side gift through to Hope. He shuffles early to get close to off, which he always does, and then he sees one down the leg side, but is not quite close to it. Tries to clip it for easy runs still, but all he manages is a faint nick 16/237.1 anti-climactic end to Iyer's knock. Looks to take on the fielder at long off, and cannot beat him. Full outside off, and Iyer moved to the leg side. Wanted to go inside out over extra cover but he doesn't get to the pitch of the ball. That's why he is lacking the power or the direction, and the simplest of catches for the fielder at long off who is a few metres inside the boundary. Nonetheless, a top knock that helped India recover from 42 for 3 187/629.6 out next ball! Sharp take by the keeper, and Pant has to walk back. Pant tries to play the late cut to this fullish ball, but it has taken a feather to Hope. Pant is disappointed as he walks back, and its drinks too. A bit too close to his body for the shot, along with some extra bounce from Walsh to a fullish delivery 152/432.3 four and out, just like Pant. Full just outside off, slower in the air. Yadav tries to go inside out over cover but the turn has made him slice the shot. In the air as it goes towards point, but dipping on Brooks rather quickly. He dives forward, gets both hands under the ball, and that's Allen's first wicket. 164/549.4 Holder's third wicket, but a bit lucky. Full toss, nearly waist-high. Aimed at Washington so he can't put it away even though he wanted to clear the infield. Taken inside the circle after he slices it 261/945.4 important wicket but Chahar has done his job here. Slower ball bouncer that follows Chahar once again as he backs away to make room. Swivels and tries to pull behind square but he is through the shot too early, and the gloved shot goes to the keeper 240/747.4 tries to pull, but Holder has strangled Kuldeep with a short ball around the stumps. Gloves the pull, Hope dives to his right and takes a stunner 250/849.6 fourth for Holder and that's the end of the innings. Holder goes for a full slow ball, and Siraj looks to improvise by trying to swing for the fences behind square. Through the shot too early and the stumps are rattled.

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.2 big nipbacker, Hope is caught on the crease, and Umpire Menon has given him out. Twice in three matches, Siraj has got him with the wobble-seam delivery. This one nips back appreciably, and when the ball moves so much you should be able to get outside the line of off if you move even half forward. Hope, though, is caught on the back foot and his bat fails to track the movement off the surface. Trapped. Replays show it to be going over the stumps, but King advised him against the review 19/14.3 Chahar and outswinger. Outswinger and Chahar. Lovely low catch at second slip too. This is a no-gains push away from the body. If you middle, you get nothing for this, but you leave yourself open to exactly this damage. This is a length ball, fairly wide, swinging away, and he pushes at it. Surya makes this look easy at second slip, but it is anything but 25/213.1 that last review/non-drive doesn't matter. Bravo plays a flashy drive on the up and away from the body. This length ball goes with the angle and takes a thick edge to second slip. Kohli takes it nicely as this is travelling quickly 68/44.6 another outswinger. India have three in five overs. Sucker ball. Wide teasing half-volley but swinging away. Brooks nowhere near it, fails to control it, and ends up slicing it to point 25/318.3 thick edge and Kuldeep has two. Tosses it up for Pooran, outside off stump. Pooran looks to play an expansive drive/slap through the off side, but it takes the edge, past Pant's gloves, and Rohit gobbles it up with a reverse-cup technique 82/715.6 Krishna is proving to be an excellent middle-overs enforcer for India. Another slips catch. Again extra bounce from a good length, hits the shoulder of the bat as Holder defends just outside off. The edge settles with Rohit at slip 76/516.2 double appeal for catch and stumping. Given out caught, and he has reviewed the catch. But they will check the stumping too as an umpires' review should there be no edge. Don't let all the DRS drama take away from how comprehensively Kuldeep has done Allen in. He has teased him with his loop, drawing the big drive, Allen plays for the turn back in, but this leaves him, and replays show it has taken the edge. Welcome back, Kuldeep. It is the wrong'un, by the way 77/637.1 and that's 3-0! Short ball outside off, looks to pull, and Kohli at deep midwicket backtracks to hold on. India win by 96 runs 169/1023.3 this time Dhawan won't drop it and Smith's 18-ball cameo comes to a close. Doesn't go full, stays on a good length. Decent ounce, Smith backs away to try and clear mid on, but this time the sliced shot is taken by Gabbar at the inner-circle line. Does the #ThighFive too 122/836.2 that should end the frustration. Siraj chases Walsh with a cross-seam short ball, takes the glove, and Rohit takes the catch at leg gully and throws the ball into the ground to release the frustration of the last few overs 169/9Extras13 (lb 4, w 9)TOTAL169 all out (37.1 Overs, RR: 4.54)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Shai Hope, 3.2 ov), 2-25 (Brandon King, 4.3 ov), 3-25 (Shamarh Brooks, 4.6 ov), 4-68 (Darren Bravo, 13.1 ov), 5-76 (Jason Holder, 15.6 ov), 6-77 (Fabian Allen, 16.2 ov), 7-82 (Nicholas Pooran, 18.3 ov), 8-122 (Odean Smith, 23.3 ov), 9-169 (Hayden Walsh, 36.2 ov), 10-169 (Alzarri Joseph, 37.1 ov)
