England off to a cautious start

September 09, 2018 19:56

Eng 6-0 (5 ovs) & 332 vs India 292 | Scorecard

Ishant Sharma from the other end. The first ball is pitched up from round the wicket and pitched right up as Keaton Jennings is beaten before the next ball comes in and hits him on the pads but he survives the LBW shout.

India decide against the review and rightly so as the ball was pitching down the leg side and also going over the top.

Jennings gets a thick outside edge off the third ball as it goes on the bounce to gully before he defends the fourth ball right off the middle. The left-hander keeps strike with a single from the last ball.

Bumrah from over the wicket. He is looking to slant the deliveries across the left-hander as Jennings manages to play out a maiden over, the second in a row from the pacer.

Ishant makes Cook come forward to a full delivery which moves away quite a bit to beat the left-hander, who was playing away from his body.

But he loses his radar, bowling two deliveries down the leg side to Cook before the fast bowler sends down another maiden.

Jennings tap Bumrah on the off-side for a single for the first run against the pacer in his third over. Cook clips the fifth ball of his hips behind square for a four to get off the mark in some style in his final innings in Tests.
