January 19, 2017  18:35


England 50-1 (8 ovs) vs India 381-6 | Scorecard

Bhuvneshwar bowling a good spell with the new ball, keeping it up and looking for some swing. Only two singles from his third over, he has been quite giving away just 13 runs in three overs to keep England quiet at the start.

Bumrah gives Root some width as he hits it through point for a four and later in the over Roy steers a wide delivery from Bumrah through the vacant thirdman region for another boundary.

But at the other end, Bhuvneshwar keeps it tight as he bowls another good over by giving away just two singles. This is absolute top class bowling by the pacer on a flat wicket with nothing at all for the bowlers.

India have a packed off-side field for Bumrah but Root still manages to find the gap between the two fielders stationed close to each other at point for a four, to bring up England's 50, in the eighth over.
