Curran takes England past 250

September 01, 2018 22:48

England 251-7 (88 ovs) & 246 vs India 273 | Scorecard

India have found it hard to dismiss Curran and the young left-hander once again proving his mettle with the bat.

He punches a full delivery from Bumrah down the ground for a four and then cover drives the next ball through the covers for the same result.

It would be interesting to see Adil Rashid's approach with the bat, who is normally likes to play some shots. He defends the first five balls before he clips the last ball in some style through square leg for a four.

Shami comes back into the attack as he replaces Bumrah, who was hit for two fours in his previous over.

But no stopping the flow of runs as Curran runs the last ball of the over through thirdman for a four to take England past the 250-run mark.

Curran is playing an excellent innings once again, having taken his score to 35, with the help of five fours.
