- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR15.2 a first-over wicket for Swann! It's been a while since he managed that. Parthiv was trying to take advantage of the attacking field, but got underneath an attempted chip down the ground, getting much more height than distance. Bresnan ran back from mid-on and made no mistake. Odd innings from Parthiv. He switched between cautious defence and all-out attack without much success. 57/212.1 gone! Dernbach strikes. Rahane attempted a mow to leg, but the ball - quite possibly another slower one - took the top edge and looped down to third man, where Finn sprinted across to his left and took a great diving catch 52/141.6 Dravid's gone! Came down the track and tried to fetch it from outside off to swing it over midwicket, missed, the ball turned and clipped off stump. Applause all around as an illustrious career in ODIs has just ended. The England players walk up to Dravid and shake hands in a gesture of appreciation, and the crowd applaud him all the way to the pavilion 227/343.3 Hit-wicket, Kohli's gone, he rocked on the back foot to work that square and rocks back far enough to dislodge the bail on middle and leg stump, that's gone, Kieswetter spotted that and appealed and Kohli has to go after a delightful innings 236/448.5 similar delivery and Raina attempts an identical shot, it's closer to the off stump this time and he makes contact but ended up miscuing it, was a skier and Bresnan at extra cover didn't flinch, took a well-judged catch 284/549.1 Jadeja times it a little too well, was bowled on a length on the pads and he clips it straight to deep midwicket where Bopara takes a good, running catch 288/6Extras18 (b 1, lb 11, w 6)TOTAL304/6 (50 Overs, RR: 6.08)Fall of wickets: 1-52 (Ajinkya Rahane, 12.1 ov), 2-57 (Parthiv Patel, 15.2 ov), 3-227 (Rahul Dravid, 41.6 ov), 4-236 (Virat Kohli, 43.3 ov), 5-284 (Suresh Raina, 48.5 ov), 6-288 (Ravindra Jadeja, 49.1 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR17.5 gone this time! Kohli celebrates with an excited yelp and some fist-pumping as Cook gives himself room and aims an ungainly heave to leg, only to miss the ball completely and have his stumps re-arranged. Dravid runs straight to Kohli to congratulate him! And well he might, that's Kohli's first ODI wicket 106/24.1 Kieswetter's livid, Vinay's ecstatic, kept a little low, landed on middle and leg and Kieswetter moved well across to work that square leg and missed, early indications are that it would have gone on to hit leg but we need another replay to confirm. The umpire Nigel Llong, however, had no doubt and raised his finger immediately 27/125.4 there goes another one! Trott had set himself well outside leg before Jadeja even delivered, and seemed to think he had been given the length and width he was looking for. He couldn't control the cut, however, and the ball looped easily to the man at point 166/424.1 gone! Bell perishes, caught by the substitite Tiwary at long-off trying to clear the boundary. That's just what India needed. England are still ahead on D/L - by five runs - but India have snapped what was becoming a very cumbersome partnership for them. 160/3Extras3 (lb 1, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL241/4 (32.2 Overs, RR: 7.45)Fall of wickets: 1-27 (Craig Kieswetter, 4.1 ov), 2-106 (Alastair Cook, 17.5 ov), 3-160 (Ian Bell, 24.1 ov), 4-166 (Jonathan Trott, 25.4 ov)
