    1.5 Whipped to backward square leg! Rinse and repeat for Sanju... Wood's wider on the crease, into the hip, helped to Archer who had just taken up that deep position on the fence 21/1
    17.6 finally, England have got their man. The Wankhede reverberates to chants of Abhishek! Abhishek! Slants this wrong'un wide of off stump, and makes Abhishek reach for the ball and slice his lofted drive to the man at sweeper cover 237/7
    8.6 Carse strikes! It's not the man they would have chosen, but Varma's wicket is valuable all the same. Dug in short, and arrowing into the batter, who rocks back to cut the ball over the wicketkeeper Salt but can only find his gloves 136/2
    10.2 and now a top-edge, and SKY's quiet series ends with another low score. It's full, angling into the stumps, and Suryakumar is in a great position to play one of his favourite shots, the whip over square or just behind. It straightens a bit, though, and he ends up top-edging it high into the night sky, and Salt moves to his left and takes it with a tumble 145/3
    13.2 gottim. Good short ball angling into Dube and climbing towards his head. He's a little late on this pull, and can't get a full extension of his arms into the shot. Ends up top-edging it high and into the hands of fine leg 182/4
    14.4 wow. That's some shot, but he's managed to pick out the fielder at deep backward square leg. Hard length at the hip, and he whips it firm and flat and times it beautifully, but his placement goes a bit awry 193/5
    15.5 length ball on off stump, and Archer appeals for lbw and gets the decision. Rohan Pandit gives it out, and he must feel this is pad first. Let's see how it goes, because Rinku has reviewed... Yup, pad got in the way of his bat. Angling across, good length, impact is around off stump or thereabouts. Did it straighten? Rinku was looking to push into the covers for a quick single, and he managed to do that (before turning back with Abhishek sending him back), but the flap of his front pad got between his bat and the ball. Impact is around middle and off, and the ball is going on to hit a good chunk of off stump according to ball-tracking. That did straighten a little bit. Excellent decision from Pandit. This was 151kph 202/6
    19.5 low full-toss on middle and off, whipped away towards deep midwicket, and they have to risk the second even though it's almost doomed to fail. The shot went straight towards the fielder. Livingstone's throw to the keeper is accurate, and Axar doesn't make his ground in time 247/8

    19.6 and he goes first ball, last ball. Full-toss angling into the stumps, and Bishnoi slogs at it but doesn't middle it at all, gets more underneath it than he'd like, and deep midwicket runs in off the boundary and takes a simple catch 247/9

    7.1 And he's got the big wicket straightaway! India are even winning the banter/narrative battle, as Dube gets one to move away from Salt, who was always going to have a go. Nicks through to Jurel. Like for like? 82/5
    2.1 Clothed to cover! Really woeful shot, not particularly sharp from Shami, sat up to be hit and Duckett reaches for a drive, bat twisting in his hands, for a simple catch 23/1
    4.1 There you have it! Into the pitch, Buttler goes to impose himself early and skies high down the ground to long off. Immediate impact from the player of the series. Huge blow for England's hopes as Buttler heads back to the dugout 48/2
    5.2 Brook's tribulations against spin continue! Two spinners bring about his end this time, Bishnoi's googly is off a length, meaning Brook's slog sweep isn't quite so straight forward, and he falls to the off side into the shot, but lifts his head in time to see Varun taken an excellent tumbling catch charging in from deep square 59/3
    6.1 And continue he does... Livingstone goes, flailing high into the leg side rather than far. Toe end, and a lot of time in the air, but Rinku Singh keeps his calm to take a simple catch 68/4

    9.1 Bowled him! Off stump flattened, as Bethell attempts to heave across the line. That's the Sixth wicket today off the first ball of an over... 90/8
    8.1 He can do no wrong! Into the pitch, straight, Carse tries to heave down the ground and can only find Varun, charging around in front of the boundary sponge at long on 87/6
    8.5 Overton goes high, skewing the ball into the off side... where SKY takes an excellent catch, over his shoulder, running back from cover! Judged perfectly by the Indian skipper. 90/7

    10.2 nine down. Short ball angling into the stumps, looks to make room and pull or flat-bat down the ground, but only manages a top-edge that loops behind him to the keeper 97/9
    10.3 shortish, angling down the leg side past the hip as Wood attempts to whip it away, and Jurel goes up for a caught-behind after collecting the ball with a tumble to his left. Not given on-field, and India have reviewed. It seems to pass very close to Wood's glove... and Ultra Edge picks up a definite spike. Shami gets his second of the over, and England are bowled out for 97 97/10
