- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.5 Terrible, terrible mix-up! Salt is aghast and out of here. Hardik bowls it on a length outside off, Salt backs away and slices it past backward point. Iyer races after it, slides and keeps it in play. Salt wanted a third but Duckett was going nowhere. The throw to Rahul was on point and he did the rest. A wicket against the run of play 75/19.3 Terrific catch from Jaiswal and the two debutants combine for India to pick up a second English wicket. Rana continues to use the hard length and digs it in this time. Duckett is slightly forward and not fully back but goes for the pull. He miscues it high in the air and midwicket sprints back, dives full length to pluck that. Two wickets in five balls for India and they are clawing back 77/218.3 fired into the pads, given! Root looks less than gruntled and reviews. Seemed pretty adjacent with Root going back in the crease, beaten for pace by a 100kph skidder. Has he hit it? Nope, beats the inside edge and the raps the flap of the back pad. Umpire's call on hitting middle stump, and Root will have to go! Umpire Ananthapadmanabhan raises his finger again. Huge wicket for India 111/49.6 Bouncer does it for Brook! Nagpur suddenly finds its voice as Rana finishes a double-wicket over on ODI debut. He digs it in and angles it in to him, who looks to fend it away. But there is a bit of extra bounce and he ends up gloving it down leg. Rahul gets to his left and takes it easily with a leap. India finishing the powerplay well 77/332.6 top-edged and taken! Half-tracker from Axar but it has scuttled Buttler... Stayed low as he went back to pull and came right off the toe of the bat for a simple catch at short fine leg. Buttler had been building nicely but falls at a crucial juncture 170/542.4 Huge appeal for lbw, not given! And there is a run-out appeal at the striker's end . India's review will be checked first. Jadeja tosses it up on a length on middle, Bethell goes for the slog and misses. Three reds on the Ball-Tracker and that's what India and Jadeja wanted. Massive celebrations from India that, given the last thorn, presumably, has been taken down 220/835.4 Livingstone feathers an edge behind. Looks to attack Rana by walking down the track to a short-of-length delivery. There is a bit of extra bounce as he swings to the on side and only manages to nick one behind. He could have been dangerous at the death but runs out of patience pretty early, Rana gets his third 183/639.5 Knocked him over! Shami lands it on a length on off, Carse swings for the isles over the on side. Makes contact with only thin air and sees his stumps shattered. Proper you-miss-I-hit stuff 206/746.4 Timberrrr! Jadeja darts it in on a length on middle, it bounces more. Rashid swipes across the line and sees his middle stump pegged back 241/947.4 Stumped! Tossed up ball, entices the No. 11 out. Mahmood cannot resist and charges down, completely misses the wrong'un and Rahul does the rest.

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.3 gottim, edged behind! Jaiswal's debut knock comes to an end. He's taken a bit of a working over and eventually gets bat on one that leaves him on off stump. Looking to defend this time, but the result is a feather through to the keeper, and off he walks. Silence around the ground. England have their first 19/15.2 spooned into the leg side... and taken! Mahmood gets India's captain. The inswinger went quite a long way but Rohit's timing was completely off as he looked to whip it over midwicket. Came off the toe of the bat and flew into the night sky, as Livingstone trotted across from mid-on to settle underneath it. England making the early breakthroughs they needed here 19/236.2 flubbed to mid-on, no hundred for Gill! Dug in short, following him as he stepped outside leg. Cramped for room, hit high up the bat - might have even connected twice - and looped towards Buttler, who took a good diving catch. He gets an ovation as he walks off for 87, the devil's number if you're Australian 235/615.6 Trapped in front? The umpire thinks so, but Iyer checks with Gill and opts for the DRS. Unless he's got a bit of a glove or an edge, think he's cooked. He went down to play the sweep but misses the ball completely and was hit flush on the front pad. Bethell just landed it on a fullish length and got it to straighten after landing. Three reds on Ball-Tracking and Iyer's fun time in the middle ends. India lose a review as well 113/333.4 round the wicket, and bowled 'im through the gate! Huge legbreak from Rashid, the pace dropped down to 50kph, beats the attempted drive from the rough and ping go the bails. Not much in the way of celebration from England, but it was a pretty top nut 221/435.4 poked back to the bowler! Rashid gets another as Rahul steps to leg, reaches out and chips a drive. Rashid was low in his follow through but just about clings on after a juggle. England have another. India aren't getting nervy, surely? 225/5Extras13 (lb 8, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL251/6 (38.4 Overs, RR: 6.49)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Yashasvi Jaiswal, 4.3 ov), 2-19 (Rohit Sharma, 5.2 ov), 3-113 (Shreyas Iyer, 15.6 ov), 4-221 (Axar Patel, 33.4 ov), 5-225 (KL Rahul, 35.4 ov), 6-235 (Shubman Gill, 36.2 ov)
