- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR16.2 gone for 77 and that's called a comeback ball. Yorker, on middle, from around the stumps. Samson doesn't get low enough to meet the dipping ball, and the delivery goes just under his bat. Top delivery, super wicket 189/22.1 and there's the first breakthrough. Similar dismissal to Sunday, in some ways. On that occasion, Kishan was bowled. Now he steps out and aims a similar-looking slog into the leg side, but this length ball, angling away from him, finds his outside edge through to the keeper 13/117.6 Little tells Hooda 'well played' as they cross paths. Full outside off stump, and Hooda tried to go over cover, but slices this one instead. Mcbrine from point comes around to get under it 212/417.3 length ball on middle and leg. Suryakumar walks across and tries to play a paddle past the keeper's left, but gets a bit of bat en route. Tucker dives to his left and takes a tidy catch. 206/318.5 out for a first-ball duck and the keeper is in action again. Takes pace off, length ball outside off. DK wants to run it fine with a soft touch, but ends up getting a deft edge to Tucker 217/518.6 two in two but he won't be able to have a shot at the hat-trick. A good length ball on his pads to flick, but hits it high up in the air with not much distance. Deep midwicket charges in, keeps his eyes on the ball and that's a good way for Young to end his spell 217/619.5 middle stump knocked back with with Adair getting his third wicket with another tidy ball. Slower delivery, around the stumps, landing on leg. Harshal tried to paddle it to fine leg, but was deceived by the lack of pace. 224/7Extras12 (b 4, nb 2, w 6)TOTAL225/7 (20 Overs, RR: 11.25)Fall of wickets: 1-13 (Ishan Kishan, 2.1 ov), 2-189 (Sanju Samson, 16.2 ov), 3-206 (Suryakumar Yadav, 17.3 ov), 4-212 (Deepak Hooda, 17.6 ov), 5-217 (Dinesh Karthik, 18.5 ov), 6-217 (Axar Patel, 18.6 ov), 7-224 (Harshal Patel, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.4 bowled him. This was coming. Stirling didn't seem to be picking the wrong'un, and he was going hard at the pull even against the good-length ball. In fairness, he had to keep going for his shots, but the length isn't short enough, and the ball misses his bottom edge and crashes into the stumps 72/110.3 against the run of play! And it's the big wicket of Balbirnie. Short of a length, wider outside off. Balbirnie smacks a cut, and the ball flies right into the hands of Bishnoi at deep point! 117/36.3 fullish on off stump, pushes towards mid-off and sets off for the quick single. Dangerous decision, and Hardik finds the direct hit at the bowler's end. Is he in? Not by a long way. A couple of feet short of the crease, and India have two quick wickets after that rampaging opening stand 73/217.1 holes out! Bhuvneshwar brings out the yorker, Tector goes deep in his crease to try and hit it anyway, but can't get under it totally. Off the toe end, and Hooda does the rest at long on 189/513.4 sharp work from Chahal wearing a beanie! Full just outside off. Tucker tries to tee-off with a golf swing but slices the shot perhaps due to Umran's extra pace. Doesn't have the distance and the big question was whether Chahal could run to his left from long off to take it. He can. 142/4Extras20 (b 1, lb 7, nb 4, w 8)TOTAL221/5 (20 Overs, RR: 11.05)Fall of wickets: 1-72 (Paul Stirling, 5.4 ov), 2-73 (Gareth Delany, 6.3 ov), 3-117 (Andy Balbirnie, 10.3 ov), 4-142 (Lorcan Tucker, 13.4 ov), 5-189 (Harry Tector, 17.1 ov)
