England 330-6 (48 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Bumrah has struggled with his length as he bowls another high full toss which is called a no-ball for height, the third time he has done in this innings.

In the same over, Stokes smashes a full delivery over long-on for a huge six to bring up his fifty in grand style, from 35 balls.

The beamer epidemic is spreading as Yadav starts his new spell with another high full toss which Stokes hits over thirdman for a six to take England past the 300-run mark, in the 47th over.

Yadav does well with the free hit delivery as he bowls a yorker to Stokes, who digs it out on the leg side for two runs and another yorker is defended on the off-side for one.

Yadav drops short as Moeen rocks back and cuts it past point for a four and then makes room before steering the last ball, a yorker, past point for another boundary.

An expensive over from Yadav as he concedes 20 runs in the 47th over with England now looking at a score of around 350-run mark.

Stokes has provided the impetus, smashing 62 from 39 balls, having hit two fours and five sixes, while Moeen has made 19 from 11 balls.

Bumrah brings India some relief with the wicket of Stokes, who pulls a short ball but can't time it properly and is caught at deep midwicket after an entertaining knock of 62 from 40 balls.

Despite the wicket of Stokes, India are unable to stop the flow of runs. Moeen pulls a short ball from Bumrah over square leg for a six before a yorker goes down the leg side for four leg byes beating wicketkeeper Dhoni.

Bumrah concedes 13 runs in the over as England reach 330 for six in 48 overs, with Moeen smashing 27 from 15 balls.
