Bowlers put England in control

July 01, 2022 20:08

India 130-5 (35 ovs) vs England | Scorecard

Broad from round the wicket to Pant, who pushes the second ball into the off-side for a single.

Jadeja gets a thick outside edge off the fourth ball but it falls well short of the slips.

He again gets an edge off the fifth ball as Joe Root at first slip dives to his right to take the catch but he is unsure of whether he has taken it cleanly as the umpires want to check with the TV umpire.

Interestingly, the soft signal from umpire Aleem Dar is not out and that turns out to be a good call the TV umpire sticks to the same decision.

However, the bowler Broad is unhappy with the call as he believes Root got his fingers underneath the ball.

Jadeja drives the last ball straight to Ben Stokes at mid-off, who is unable to stop the ball cleanly and he slips while trying to turn to run after the ball and looks in some pain.

Anderson continues as Jadeja inside edges the third ball back on to his pads before he is struck on the pads next ball but the leg before shout is turned down.

Jadeja pushes the fifth ball into the covers for a single and Pant is hit on the pads last ball as Anderson gets some sharp swing into the left-hander.

Broad overpitches as Jadeja plays a beautiful straight drive for a boundary past mid-on.

The third ball is again pitched up and this time Jadeja flicks it through midwicket for three runs.

The last ball is in the slot as Pant crashes it through the covers for the second four of the over.

Jadeja showing his utility with the bat. Anderson overpitches as Jadeja whos the full face of the bat to drive it back past the bowler for a four and clips the next to deep square leg for a single.

Pant whips the second ball in the gap throigh midwicket for three runs as Potts makes a superb stop to keep the ball inside the ropes and Jadeja nudges the fourth ball of his hips for a single.

Pant and Jadeja have batted positively to steady the ship somewhat for the Indians, as they take the score to 130/5 in 35 overs.
