5th Test: Rahul, Pant keep England at bay

September 11, 2018 19:47

India 270-5 (68 ovs); Target to win: 464 | Scorecard

Stokes continues at the rather windy Oval under pretty dark skies.

16 overs left before the new ball and 44 left in the day. It may be a decent batting pitch but there is definitely going to be an entertaining battle.

Pant gets on top of the ball and strokes it away for a single to bring up India's 250. Cook goes off the field at the end of the over and there is another applause.

Root keeps on going as do the Indian pair, three more singles come from the over.

In the next over Pant smacks Stokes through point for four.

So Close! Broad is back and he is close to having Rahul caught and only evades the fielders in the covers. Great over from the seamer! Broad is still holding his side, having injured his rib on Monday.
