The last ball is full and on the stumps as Curran does well to tap it to midwicket and steal a quick run to retain strike.

But Bumrah has overstepped to concede a no-ball and he has one delivery to lastman James Anderson.

The last ball is slightly wide and moves as Anderson offers no stroke.

Curran taking the attack to Shardul. This time he picks a full delivery over midwicket for a four, getting it wide of the fielder in the deep.

Anderson watchfully plays out the last ball as he pushes it on the off-side.

Curran tries to swing Bumrah but gets a thick inside edge before he defends the next on the off-side.

He bowls a full toss which Curran hits to the fielder at mid-off before he drives the last ball through the covers for a four.

Shami comes back into the attack. Anderson pokes away from his body and is beaten before he taps the next on the leg side.

Good bowling from Shami as Anderson gets forward to drive the full delivery but is beaten outside the off-stump.

Anderson flicks the fifth ball through midwicket for a single to get off the mark.

Curran makes room and slices Shami over thirdman for another boundary to take his score to 27 as England inch towards the 200-run mark.
