India 19-0 (8 ovs) vs England 183 | Scorecard

Rohit plays a loose shot, poking away from his body at a wide delivery from Broad and is lucky that he didn't get the edge.

But he overpitches as Rohit reaches out and drives the third ball square on the off-side for a four.

This is a confident start from the Indians as the two openers have looked quite solid, except for a couple of plays and misses, to score 17 for no loss in six overs.

Pacer Ollie Robinson comes into the attack in place of Anderson, with England desperate for an early breakthrough.

The first ball comes in as Rahul leaves it on length and the ball passes over the stumps before he defends the next two deliveries.

Short delivery from Robinson as Rahul plays the cut shot but can't get it past point and leaves the last ball.

Broad oversteps to give India a no-ball as Rohit defends it on the off-side and leaves the next.

Rohit misses the flick off the incoming delivery but takes a leg bye and Rahul confidently blocks out the last three balls.
