    6.4 Anderson destroys the stumps. He bowls a full ball for the first time, after several good length ones. Parthiv is stuck in his crease and falls over towards the off as he attempts to play across the line. He misses and loses middle stump 13/3
    0.4 caught at slip! Anderson angles the ball into the right-hander, pitches on a great length close to off stump, and gets it to seam away from the batsman. Rahane stays in his crease and pokes tentatively. The ball takes the edge and goes straight to Trott at first slip. It's Rahane's first failure on the tour. Had to happen some time. 1/1
    5.2 Dravid's run out! Parthiv pushes the ball towards mid-off and runs. Dravid is slow to respond and slow while running. Anderson swoops on the ball, picks up with one hand, lets it rip at the striker's end and scores a direct hit. Dravid didn't sprint, or dive or try to get in the line of the ball. He even looked behind to see where the ball was, which slowed him down. He's gone by a distance. That bit of running was from a bygone era. 9/2
    10.2 Kohli's struggle has ended and this is now too easy for Anderson. He pitches just short of a length outside off and seams the ball away, Kohli stays in his crease and hangs his bat out, getting an edge to the wicketkeeper. Soft, soft dismissal. Anderson is having a terrific game, three wickets and a direct hit, in his 150th ODI. 25/4
    18.6 caught behind! A rubbish shot. Broad pitched short around middle and off and angled the ball away from the left-hander. Raina cleared his front foot out of the way and slogged, aiming for deep midwicket. He was trying to pull from miles outside off and got an edge through the the wicketkeeper. Hideous shot. 58/5
    44.1 caught! It's a low full toss and Dhoni's attempt at hitting through midwicket ends up in a scoop over the bowler's head. Cook runs to his right from mid-on and takes a simple catch. Dhoni looked restricted in his movement in these last few overs 170/6
    49.2 that's the second slower ball and Jadeja gets under it and sends it into orbit. He's hit it miles in the air down the ground but not far enough. Bell settles under the ball a few feet inside the boundary at long-on 229/7

    9.6 that is absolutely plumb! Cook leaned over too far and had to play around his front pad as Munaf aimed full and straight. The appeal was immediate and vociferous, and Marais Erasmus' finger quickly shot up. Well, that takes the gloss off what had been an excellent start from England, and the breakthrough should raise India's spirits 63/1
    16.6 gone! Well deserved too! Kieswetter plays outside of the ball, expecting turn that never came and Jadeja's straight one skipped through the gate to peg back middle 87/2

    17.5 Trott has gone! What a delivery! Went the other way after drawing Trott forward, slid past the outside edge and hit off stump! Absolutely wonderful bowling 89/3
    26.2 what's happened here? Another quicker ball from Raina raps Bell on the pad and rolls away to leg. Bell thinks of the single and wanders out of his crease, but a quick-thinking Dhoni sprints, picks up the ball and shies at the stumps all in one movement, a direct hit finding Bell inches short of his ground. Sharp work from India's captain, and he's given his team the early advantage after the re-start 131/4

    27.4 gone! India are taking this game by the scruff of the neck. A fidgety Stokes moved right across to off - too far - as Ashwin hurled one down full and straight, the ball rattling the stumps on the full. 133/5

    40.5 just as it seemed Bopara was taking England home Ashwin has struck! Wonderful bowling! Touch of air, Bopara was through his shot and it spun back viciously through the gate to dislodge the bail over leg stump. To flight it up after being hit for four is excellent bowling 208/7

    38.5 that swings it back India's way! Bresnan falls and it's that man Jadeja who works the magic for India. Angled in from around the wicket, slid on with the arm and through an attempted cut to peg back middle. Excellent innings from Bresnan but may not be enough 193/6
