    19.6 spun out, Cook top-edges a sweep straight up in the air! England's captain didn't heed the warning from the previous over, falls short of a half-century, that's the end of a miserable series for him. At least he was trying to be positive I suppose 91/3
    3.4 this has gone straight up in the air! Umesh gets a wicket immediately! You have to question the choice of the shot there.. it was not that short but Hales wanted to pull it over midwicket, only gets cramped for space and gets a big top-edge that is gobbled up at midwicket 23/1
    6.6 oh no Moeen! What was the point of that shot! This is a wide length ball and Moeen throws his at at it like this is the last over of an innings.. he gets a big outside edge that is swallowed by Umesh at third man..What a waste that was 39/2
    45.2 goes across his stumps, scoops... but straight to short fine leg! Root goes for 113, a rattling good innings though England would have loved him to still be there at the end. Tried to be a bit too cute, the ball was a half-volley on off stump, instead of hitting down the ground he ramped it softly to the fielder on the edge of the ring 249/6
    28.6 tries to use the feet, there's spin again... stumped him! Like a fly caught in the web, Morgan has been struggling, fighting, now he's been put out of his misery. Good work from Dhoni, finished the job with Morgan a yard out of his crease, forlornly trying to get his foot back 117/4
    42.3 tries to reverse sweep and hit on the pads, big appeal, not given... but Buttler has wandered blindly off down the pitch and is run out by a mile! The impact was probably outside off stump, the ball only bobbled a yard or two wide of Dhoni but for reasons unknown Buttler decided there was a run to be taken. Dhoni nonchalantly reached to his right, picked up the ball and broke the stumps, Buttler shot down short of his fifty 225/5

    47.3 bulls eye! Another yorker and this time bang on middle stump, Woakes wasn't worried about his toes, having stepped away, but was summarily cleaned up 265/7

    0.3 that's the start England were after! Rahane pushes at this wider length delivery and slices it straight to point. A touch of laziness in that shot. 0/1

    13.6 slog and thwack! But it's the kind that makes the bowler happy.. Dhawan tries to repeat the shot and Moeen smartly slows it down. As the bat swings across, it just meets thin air. The ball then walks past and strikes the middle 49/3
    6.6 we have seen it a few times this summer! Eighth time this summer, Anderson gets Kohli. This is short of length just outside off, Kohli pokes at that from the crease and gets a thick outside edge. Cook at first slip dives low to his right and completes a regulation catch 25/2
    30.2 ooh la la! Rayudu can only hit it as far as mid-on! He was looking for a big hit over midwicket but this one came quicker of the surface and hurried Rayudu on the pull. That he was charging down the pitch didn't help either. It only gets as far as mid-on where Cook back-pedals and takes a simple catch 132/5
    21.4 faster, bounces a touch - takes the top edge, Raina goes! Not sure if this was a long hop or a pseudo-bouncer from Moeen, it was definitely dragged down, Raina went back to cut and the ball Jack-in-the-boxed through to the keeper, via a chunk of bat 91/4
    36.5 he gives it away! Short and wide, should have either been left as it would have been a wide, or should have been slapped over the infield... Dhoni is disappointed though as he toe-ends this straight into the hands of the cover fielder. He had to reach out for that and couldn't control it.. Good low catch by the fielder, but Finn knows this was a gift for him.. 173/6

    48.4 bowled him, Jadeja chops on! A strange dismissal, in keeping with the last few overs, really... Jadeja got well outside leg, the ball was fired in full and he effectively defended the ball on to his stumps. Finn bellows in celebration, a second wicket for him wraps up a 41-run win for England 253/10
    42.5 slower ball, bit of a legcutter, top-edged straight up... Ashwin is outtathere! Stokes is all smiles (and freckles), duped the batsman there, woolly heave across the line and Finn it was again taking the catch in the covers, falling flat on his back in relief 203/7
    44.1 England hitting their marks here, Jadeja pushes off the pads and wants two again... but Bhuvnesh is struggling as the throw comes in from mid-on. Stokes was standing some way from the stumps, had to take the throw and then reach to break the wicket; Bhuvnesh is short, by a cat's whisker, India eight down 208/8
    44.4 full toss, Shami miscues it to cover! That was a filthy delivery, met with a filthier shot - can't have been far away from a no-ball but Shami sliced it, barely off the square, simple catch for Hales 209/9
