September 09, 2018  20:43


Eng 27-0 (12 ovs) & 332 vs India 292 | Scorecard

Jadeja starts off things with the ball after the tea break. Jennings is hit on the pads off the second ball but the leg before appeal is turned down. India take the DRS but to no avail as the impact is outside the line of off-stump.

The left-hander sweeps the third ball fine for a couple of runs and then keeps strike with a single from the last ball.

Shami from the other end. Jennings offers no shot to the first ball before he blocks the next ball and is beaten off the fourth ball as Shami gets some away movement. An excited Pant is appealing even before the ball reaches him as he ends up missing it completely to give away four byes.

Jadeja gets one to stay a bit low as Cook is beaten trying to force it through the off-side. He gets one to turn in sharply as Cook goes back to defend but is hit on the pads and again the umpire turns down the LBW appeal.

Kohli thinks for a few seconds before deciding to take the DRS for the second time in successive overs from Jadeja.

The impact is well outside the line of off-stump and India end up losing their second and final review, within the first 12 overs.
