    4.4 and another! Now Cook's on his way. Almost guiding the ball to the fine gully. The delivery had some width, Cook went for the cut and couldn't have picked out Raina much better. Neat, low catch. 16/2

    4.1 what a cracker! Excellent delivery, swinging back into Hales from outside off, he's caught in the crease, there's a sizeable gap between bat and pad because he likes to stand on leg stump...the ball cannons it off stump. It was his first real big in-ducker of the day. Clever stuff 15/1

    7.6 three down! Change of angle works. Full delivery outside off, angled into Ballance who aims to flick into the leg side and gets a leading edge which loops gently to cover 23/3

    32.5 another wicket to a sweep! A reverse one, this time. The ball was outside off, Root couldn't keep the ball down - although not sure if he was actually trying to - it comes off a top edge and loops to short third man. Awful timing for England. And the field was set for the reverse sweep 114/5

    28.2 oh Morgan has played this straight into the hands of the leg gully fielder! It was turning in and the batsman goes across to whip it straight to Raina, who takes a comfortable catch. That fielder has been there all summer and this is the first time I have seen him take a catch. Raina can't do anything wrong in the field, can he? 103/4

    39.3 he's done it! Shami does the trick. Massive blow. It was a length delivery, just nips back off the seam, takes Buttler above the knee roll. Paul Reiffel gives the decision. Hawk Eye says it was going over, by a fair distance 164/6

    46.5 he makes room and too much room! Misses this quicker one and loses his middle stump. He was trying to go inside out 201/8

    44.6 Woakes can keep running away to the pavilion! It is Raina again! Moeen cuts it fine to short third man and Raina charges in to hit the stumps direct. How can one man be everywhere? 194/7

    47.3 slower this time, and it takes down the off stump! Finn was aiming for the Birmingham University with a slog sweep, can't say he succeeded. 202/9
