India 43-3 (10 ovs) vs England | Scorecard

Yuvraj and Dhoni taking their time to get their eye in as they look to repair the damage caused by the three early dismissals.

Two singles from Willey's third over before Woakes bowls another maiden over, his second on the trot, he has given away only 14 runs in his four overs so far.

Yuvraj releases the pressure and brings the crowd back to life with three fours off new bowler Jake Ball, in the eighth over.

He flicks the first ball uppishly off his pads over square leg for a four before pulling the fourth confidently over midwicket for another boundary. The last ball is driven along the ground again through the leg side for the third four of the over to get 12 from the over.

Woakes is bowling a magnificent spell at the moment. A watchful Dhoni plays out six dot balls to give the England pacer his third maiden in succession, who improves his figures to 5-3-14-3.

Ball attempts another short delivery to Yuvraj, who pulls it fine on the leg side for another four as India rally to reach 43 for three in 10 overs, with Yuvraj on 18 from 20 balls and Dhoni on 1 from 15 balls.
