England in trouble after early wickets

August 21, 2018 18:49

Eng 106-4 (43 ovs); Target to win: 521 | Scorecard

Stokes punches Ishant to mid-on where Shami lets one go through and then has to chase it all the way to long-on and slips near the boundary to give away three runs. He seems to be in some discomfort as he gets up and goes back to the dressing room to get some treatment.

Buttler drives the fifth ball past mid-off for a four to take his score to 23, the first England batsman to go past 20 in the second innings.

Stokes gets his first boundary off the 48th ball he faces, glancing Ishant behind square on the leg side for a four.

The left-hander punches a full delivery Ishant straight down the ground for a boundary to bring up England's 100, in the 42nd over.

Pandya bowls a wide half-volley as Buttler leans forward to crash it through the covers for a four as the duo continue to thwart the Indians.
