August 01, 2018 18:56

England 100-2 (36 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Ishant trying to set up Root as he starts his new over with an incoming delivery as right-hander blocks with a straight bat.

The next ball goes the other way as Root is committed to the defensive poke and is beaten. He does well to see off the over before he retains strike off the last ball with a single.

Root picks a single off Umesh as Rahane misfields at point before Jennings gets an inside edge trying to play the drive and picks up two runs to fine leg.

Root not wasting any opportunity to score as he drives a wide delivery from Ishant through the covers for two runs. Two balls later, he gets a thick outside edge for two runs before Jennings offers no shot to the last three balls.

Umesh bowls another tidy over, a maiden to Root, as India look to build the pressure with some disciplined bowling.

Shami comes back into the attack, replacing Ishant and he strikes with the first ball of his new spell.

Jennings defends with an angled bat as the ball goes between his legs and on to the stumps to bowl the left-hander.

An unlucky dismissal for Jennings who walks back after a good innings of 42, when he looked set for much more.

Dawid Malan gets off the mark with two runs off the first ball he faces, as he hits a short wide ball from Shami square on the off-side to bring up England's 100, in the 36th over.

The last ball comes in slightly as Malan is beaten, trying to defend it.
