Stokes bowls the big inswinger as a well-set Pujara is able to turn it on the leg side for one.

He beats Pant with the next ball, who pokes away from his body and misses before he taps the third ball into the covers and tries for a quick single but is sent back.

Pant happy to bide his time as he is yet to get off the mark from 20 balls faced.

In the next over, Pujara again takes a single from the fourth delivery but Pant offers no shot to the last two balls.

Stokes gifts Pujara a wide half-volley who crashes it through the covers for a four. The next ball is down the leg side as Pujara glances it fine for another boundary before he takes a single.

Pujara keeps the scoreboard ticking as he steers Anderson through point for one.

Moeen comes back into the attack and he strikes with the wicket of Pant, who is given out leg before wicket for a 29-ball duck. India have no reviews left and Pant has to walk back without reviewing the decision.
