    2.5 snicked and gone! Risk-reward pays off for England! Skids through a touch quicker, Rohit is a touch flat-footed as it drifts away and Buttler clutches the edge! 29/1
    4.5 top-edged sweep, and Mo strikes again! This is the Test team's tactics! Who cares about runs, just give us your wickets! Parkinson at short backward square back-pedals and tumbles for effect as he swallows the chance. India get another knockback just as they seem to put the hammer down 46/2
    8.4 banged in again, and shovelled to short backward square! Cunning bowling from Jordan, serves up a pitch-sticking cutter, the ball sits up with no pace to work with, and Hooda's expressive stay has been sawn off! 89/3
    11.4 swings through the pull, and that was close to the gloves! Hurried on a sharp bouncer, and yes, England are reviewing... it's certainly very adjacent to glove and helmet, and yes, it's a spike off the thumb! Another critical breakthrough for Jordan, and once again, India are pegged back when well set 126/4
    17.4 opens the face, and slashed to Brook at deep point! Good hard lines from Topley, hitting the pitch and challenging Pandya to take on the long wide boundaries. He tried, but he's done now 180/6
    16.4 cunning from Parky, and he's got his man! Saw his man charging, so fired the ball out so, so wide, barely on the cut strip, but he's committed to his stroke, and can only toe-end it to Roy on the edge of the ring in the covers! 171/5
    19.3 round the wicket, takes pace off this time... and Curran takes a blinder at point! Another wipe from DK, as well he might, but it's skewed off a leading edge this time, and Curran hurtles back before diving full length to cling on. A handy cameo all the same 195/7
    19.4 run out after mid-pitch chaos! Full length from round the wicket, a huge wind-up on the swing to leg, the ball gets buried under the batter's feet, thoughts about the single. Buttler flings off a glove, takes a beat, and pings down the stumps at the non-strikers' end! 195/8

    6.1 Roy's nightmare stay ends And that's Hardik's third wicket. Roy opens his helmet, simply shakes his head, and makes his way back. Hardik goes fullish outside off. Ball moves away a bit. Roy tries to slap it over the off side, but it takes a thick edge instead. Flies to third man, where Harshal has to run in and take the catch. 33/4
    0.5 a magician with the new ball! And the captain falls for a first-baller. Roy got the outswings for four deliveries. Buttler is welcomed with a searing inswinger. Lands on off, zigs back in very sharply. He is too late to opt for the flick, and the ball goes past his pads. Leg stump shattered. 1/1

    4.2 goes full, gets the wicket, stumps clattered! Fuller on middle. A bit skiddy. Malan stays on the back foot and Malan offers no real shot, just tries to get his bat in front of his pads, and the ball has taken the inside edge onto the wicket 27/2
    4.6 massive wicket! Hardik showing his smarts Hardik thinks Livingstone will move to the off side so he bowls a length ball almost near the wide line. Livingstone does move across to invent a paddle to fine leg, but only gets some glove en route to the keeper! The celebrations show how much this wicket means to India 29/3
    12.1 Suryakumar makes up at deep midwicket, running to his left and covering a lot of distance. Chahal bowls a length delivery on middle and leg. Brook goes deep in his crease to pull it in front of square, but the ball doesn't get the bounce that Brook thought it would have, and he drags the shot from near his waist up in the air. Ball floats through the leg side and even though it seemed like it wouldn't be a catch, Suryakumar covered the distance rather comfortably in the end 94/5
    12.5 is that game, set, match? Karthik fluffs it again, but this time has the opportunity to fix his error. Chahal with a dipping full ball, and Moeen comes down the track. However, Moeen's dance down the track means he's yorked himself. Not a clean grab of this legbreak from Karthik, probably blinded by Moeen, but manages to collect and break the stumps. 100/6
    13.5 his fourth! That's the POTM award, signed and delivered. Back of a length outside off. Curran tries to improvise by moving across to the off side and trying to hook it to fine leg. Top-edged, and the ball pops up in the air. Karthik doesn't have to move much for that catch 106/7

    15.6 the death overs specialist does his deed and gets a wicket to end a tidy over. Short ball, slower delivery (111kph). Mills backs away and tries to ramp it over short third man but he can't glance it, instead meets the ball off the bat's full face. Ball lobs up for the bowler to run to his left and take a simple return catch. 120/8
    17.6 maiden wicket! And England are nine down. Slower ball, back of a length on middle and leg. Backs away, tries to pull to the leg side, but deceived by the lack of pace. Gets the edge instead, and another catch for Karthik to complete. 135/9
    19.3 that's 13 wins in a row for Rohit, the India T20I captain. Parkinson slaps this after backing away, and point takes a sharp catch with the ball coming to him quickly. India win by 50 runs 148/10
