John Hastings to bowl the second over. He starts with a poor delivery, on the pads, as Shikhar Dhawan nudges it fine on the leg side for a four to get off the mark.

He defends the next four balls before stealing a quick single from the last ball to retain strike.

Debutant Scott Boland comes into the attack, replacing Watson, who bowled just one over with the new ball.

Dhawan looks to pull the first ball but misses and takes a leg bye. Rohit goes for the big drive outside the off-stump but is beaten before he taps the fifth ball to midwicket for one.

Dhawan has a huge swing at the last ball but misses it completely.

India's openers have missed more than they have connected in the first three overs, scoring just 12 runs.

India go after Hastings, in his second over. A short wide delivery is hit through the covers for a four by Rohit before takes a single.

Dhawan comes down the track and makes room before he crashes it through the off-side for a four. The next ball is heaved over the midwicket fence by the left-hander for a mighty six before driving the fifth ball through the covers for two runs as India race to 29 for no loss in four overs.
