England 349-7 (48 ovs) vs India 381-6 | Scorecard

Morgan hits Bumrah high over long-on for a six as the pacer attempts a slower ball which is quite short giving the batsman enough time to adjust.

He then bowls a full delivery, a low full toss which goes for a single to long-off.

Plunkett is wrapped on the pads by a slower ball as umpire Anil Chaudhary rules him out leg before wicket. England take the DRS which shows the impact was well outside the off-stump and there is some confusion before things are finally settled down.

Plunkett hammers the fifth ball straight back past the bowler for a four down the ground. He swings the last ball over the leg side for another four to get 17 runs from the over.

England still keep their hopes alive, with 46 needed from three overs for victory.

Morgan has battled hard to keep his team in the contest with a superb innings of 85 from 74 balls, while Plunkett has smashed 18 from 10 balls.

Morgan turns the first ball of Bhuvneshwar's new over behind square on the leg side for two runs. He swings the next ball over square leg for a four to bring the target to 40 from 16 balls.

Morgan turning it on at the moment. He swipes the third ball over the vacant thirdman region for another boundary as he races to 95 from 77 balls, and then takes a single to long-off.

Plunkett goes after a very wide delivery for only one run to thirdman and Morgan only gets a single to long-on.
