England 67-1 (10 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Bumrah comes into the attack after three overs from Pandya with the new ball, in which he conceded 17 runs.

He makes a tidy start, giving away four runs in his first over.

Roy continues to get the boundaries in the early overs as he pulls a short ball from Yadav fine on the leg side for a four. The next ball is full as Roy flicks it square on the leg side and gets good timing on it for another boundary as he races to 43 from 32 balls.

In the next over, Roy plays a beautiful straight drive forcing even the great Sunil Gavaskar to applaud from the commentary box. He punches a full delivery from Bumrah down the ground for a four.

Roy shows he is equally capable off the backfoot as he pull a short ball over midwicket for another four to race to his half-century from 36 balls, having hit 10 fours.

This is a good start for England as they race to 67 for one in 10 overs.
