17:11
India: 132-4
Jordan replaces Stokes (5-0-32-0) in the attack in the 29th over. He gives away five runs.

Stokes, after two expensive overs to begin with, replaces Root (3-0-14-0) in the attack in the 23rd over. It's a better over from him, just four runs coming off it.

Root is doing a good job at the other end. But England need to break this partnership, that is threatening at a big total at the moment.

16:21
India: 75-2
Rahane gets his second boundary, to fine leg in Jordan's second over, the shot helping India get past the 50-run mark, in the 14th over.

Rahane's third boundary, off Jordan, followed by a couple brings about the 50-run partnership for the third wicket.

16:00
India: 47-2
Ajinkya Rahane is the new man in.
Anderson is given a sixth over and it turns out to be a wrong decison by Cook, the over being England's most expensive thus far. Rohit hits two magnificent boundaries as 10 runs come off it.
England effect the first bowling change in the 12th over, Chris Jordan replacing Woakes (5-1-8-2). He gives away three runs first up.
It's double change for England, Ben Stokes replacing Anderson (6-1-27-0). Rahane dispatches the fourth ball straight of mid-on for a superb boundary.
15:34
India: 19-2
The pressure exerted by the England bowlers has an impact as Woakes strikes in the first ball of his fourth over, having Dhawan (11) caught behind.
A slow start, and now an early wicket, India couldn't have had worse in Cardiff. Dhawan's 22-ball knock included two boundaries but was largely a struggle.
Virat Kohli is the new man in. One need not be reminded that he was terrible in the Test series. Can he find his mojo back?
The answer is no. He survives three balls, hitting the third one straight to Alastair Cook at mid-off.
Woakes's twin strikes have put England on top early on in Cardiff.
15:28
India: 19-0
Just to add to the average score bit, England have the best economy rate among all teams in the first 10 overs in ODIs in recent times.
A boundary by Dhawan, off Anderson, takes the score to 19 without loss after seven overs.
15:26
India: 12-0
Dhawan gets his first runs in Woakes's second over, an exquisite boundary through the off side.
The Indian openers have put just 12 runs on the board in the first six overs.
This has been a slow start by India but not a surprising one. The average first innings score at this venue is just 228.
15:16
India: 9-0
Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan open the batting for India and it will be Jimmy Anderson first up for England. It's a maiden.
Chris Woakes to bowl with the second new ball. He also starts off with a maiden.
The first run on the Indian scoreboard is an extra, a wide by Anderson. And the first scoring shot is a boundary by Rohit, an on-drive, in the same over.
14:53 England win toss, elect to bowl vs India in 2nd ODI
England captain Alastair Cook has won the toss and elected to bowl in the second One-Day International against India, in Cardiff, on Wednesday.
The opening match of the five-match ODI series in Bristol on Monday was washed out without a ball being bowled.
Alex Hales will make his ODI debut for England and he will open the innings.
For India, Ajinkya Rahnae gets the nod ahead of Ambati Rayudu, who misses out despite a half-century in the practice match against Middlesex.
Bhuveshwar Kumar, Mohit Sharma and Mohammed Shamia are the three seamers, while Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin are the two spin bowlers.
It is overcast in Durham at the moment with some rain predicted later in the day. The pitch looks green and might help the pacers early on in the match and England would be hoping to make the advantage count with a few early wickets.
