July 12, 2018 17:47

England 71-0 (10 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

India introduce spin early as leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal comes into the attack. Just three singles from five balls before Roy makes up for it as he reverse sweeps the last ball for a four through point.

Another bowling as all-rounder Hardik Pandya comes into the attack. He drops short as Roy pulls it behind square for another four to take his score to 33, the same as his partner Bairstow.

Two balls later he punches it down the ground but Kaul at mid-off gives the chase and manages to pull it just inside the ropes with a slide and keep it down to just two.

The first five overs produced just 26 runs before England's openers cut loose to score 45 from the next five to take the total to 71 for no loss in 10 overs.
