England in a soup

August 19, 2018 19:11

England 75-3 (20 ovs) vs India 329 (94.5 ovs) | Scorecard

England have endured a tough start to the second session of play on Day 2.

The introduction of Ishant after lunch has put India in a good space. He has picked two wickets now in his 6-over spell.

It is now down to Root and Bairstow to do damage control and get the England innings back on track.

Bairstow comes in for Pope and is welcomed with a bouncer.

Ishant bowls the same ball he bowled to take out Pope, the ball going down leg. Bairstow leaves it alone.

Ishant continues and Pope is gone here! He tries to play the ball to the leg side but is caught by a diving Pant. England lose their third wicket and Pope is out for 10.

Bumrah continues and Root plays at it, the edge flies past a wrong-footed Pant and down to third man for a four.

Bumrah then makes Root play at it and it misses everything!

Ishant continues and England get on the scorecard after 2 maiden overs. Root gets a boundary to fine leg.

He then punches the ball through covers for a three, Pandya chases and keeps it down to three.

Pope then watchfully plays out the next three balls as seven runs come off the over.

Bumrah continues, the ball is nipping back in a bit. Another maiden and England are a bit tied down here after those two blows.

Ishant continues and he is troubling Root as the ball is moving in a lot.

He raps Root on the pads, appeals but the umpire is not interested. The replays show that the ball would have gone down the leg side.

That is a maiden over.

Bumrah continues and gives just two runs in the over.
