Roy slams 23-ball half-century, England off to a flier

England 82-0 (7 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

With the pacers going for a lot of boundaries, Kohli brings on leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal at the end of Powerplay.

He nearly strikes in his first over as Buttler, 28 from 17 balls, top edges the sweep and skies it on the leg side but Siddarth Kaul running in from deep midwicket makes good ground but is unable to hold on to a tough chance.

Roy has taken over the mantle from Buttler as he clubs Chahal down the ground over long-on for a six to race to his half-century from just 23 balls, having hit five sixes and four fours.
