India 193-1 (64 ovs) vs England 537 | Scorecard


The plan of Broad to bowl at the cracks outside the off-stump and produce everything nearly works. Vijay (66) drives on the up but the young Hameed fails to take a sharp catch diving to his left at short cover to give the Indian opener a lifeline. He turns the next ball on the leg side for a single to get of the strike.

Rashid bowls a beauty to Vijay, getting good turn and bounce to beat Vijay, who was looking to defend.

England looking to build some pressure with a few tight overs, using pace and spin in tandem.

Broad looking to bowl it wide of the off-stump and force the Indian batsmen to have a go and try to force it through the heavily packed off-side cordon, including  six men in catching positions.

Pujara, who was dismissed for a couple of times after scoring fifties against England, looks keen to carry on to score a big century.

He is batting on 82, while Vijay is on 68 as India reach 193 for one in 64 overs.
