India 291-6 (40 ovs) vs England 350-7 | Scorecard


Pacer Ball comes back, replacing Woakes, who was expensive in his second spell. Jadhav, who by now can't even take the quick singles due to cramps, decides to go for the big shot. He smashes a short ball over mid-off for a six before he pulls a short ball but tumbles on the ground.

Jadhav is down with severe cramps and it remains to be seen if he continues or retires as his inability to take the quick singles would hamper India big time in the closing stages of this run chase.

Meanwhile, Jadhav is up and back again. He smashes another short ball over midwicket and it carries all the way for a six to get 13 from the over.

Stokes continues as he starts the new over with one down the leg side which Pandya tickles fine for a four to bring the asking rate under six for the first time in their innings.

Stand and deliver time for Jadhav, as he pulls another short ball down the leg side from Stokes past the short fine leg fielder for another four.

Ball gets the key wicket of Jadhav, who plays the pull shot yet again but hits it straight into the hands of the fielder at deep square leg.

Jadhav hobbles back after a fine innings of 120 from 76 balls as he gets a huge cheer from his home fans.

With both the centurions gone, India are reduced to 291 for six in 40 overs, needing another 60 runs from the last 10 overs for victory.

India's lower order did remarkably well during the Test series and it remains to be seen if they can replicate that same form in the ODIs too.
