England 143-5 (53 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Shami to continue his over after the tea break. New batsman Dan Lawrence defends the first few balls he faces before he is caught down the leg side trying to glance it fine.

This has been a terrific spell by Shami, taking three wickets, including two in one over on either side of the tea interval.

India on top as England are reduced to 138/5 in 51 overs.

Jos Buttler walks in at No 7 with his task cut out as England need a big partnership to get above the 200-run mark.

Root pushes Bumrah for a single and Buttler drives the next in the covers and then is hit high on the pads trying to clip it on the leg side.

Buttler is then beaten as Bumrah gets the ball to move away late before he blocks out the last two balls.

Shami produces a beauty to beat Root, who is completely squared up as the ball moves away late.

But he gets back at the bowler, driving the last ball in some style through the covers for a four.
