David Glick: "Is the ground tiny?? " - Yes.

KL: "It's gonna be a tight chase. Bowling and Fielding discipline need to be sharp from India if they want to pull this off."

Shyam: "So 11 4's and 12 6's in that innings by India... That's Bangalore... Expect the same from England..."

"The wicket was a bit two-paced," Raina says. "The key was, look to play straight. It's important to take the initiative in the first six overs. 200 is still not safe, but we have a few experienced bowlers, and they're going to do it for us."

8.40pm 70 came off the last five overs, 24 of them in the 18th, bowled by Chris Jordan, as Yuvraj Singh decided to mistake him for Stuart Broad. A fifty for Suresh Raina, a maiden T20I fifty for MS Dhoni, and all in all, a turn-the-clock-back sort of innings from India, who finish on 202. It's a big, big total, but this is the Chinnaswamy. You'd back England to get close at the very least.

W
Jordan to Pandya, 1 run, OUT, low full-toss on middle stump, clears his front leg and whips it away to deep midwicket. They go for the second because it's the last ball, and I'm not sure if Pandya has beaten Stokes's throw to the keeper. Nope. He's a long way out when Buttler whips off the bails

HH Pandya run out 11 (3m 4b 0x4 1x6) SR: 275.00

Jordan to Pandya, 2 runs, full, angling into the stumps, jams his bat down and squeezes it away through midwicket
19.4
6
Jordan to Pandya, SIX, dropped, and that's costly from Roy. Back of a length outside off, seam-up, and he hits through the line, clears his front leg and swings like a baseballer, and Roy, leaping at long-on, gets his hands to it but lets it slip through them and fall beyond the rope

What a turnaround!

8

No. of runs for which England lost their last 8 wickets, the second-worst 8-wkt collapse in history of International cricket. NZ had lost 8 for 5 runs v Aus in a Test in 1946.

Hosts back in the game

3

Wickets lost by England in a span of six deliveries, without getting any run - Morgan, Root and Buttler were the batsmen out between overs 13.3 and 14.2.

England ahead

86

England's score at the end of tenth over. India made 78runs at the same stage. Both were two-down at that point.

Longest wait

76

No. of T20Is MS Dhoni has played to score his maiden T20I fifty, easily the most by any batsman. The previous highest was 42 matches by Ireland's Gary Wilson.

After a long wait

2010

Last time Raina scored a fifty in T20Is, before this. This was his first such score in 38 innings.

Three sixes in Powerplays

3

No. of India batsmen to hit 3 or more sixes in the Powerplays in T20Is, including Raina today. Sehwag hit 4 vs NZ in 2009 and Rohit 3 vs WI in 2016.

Fielding again

3

No. of times in this series England have won the toss. They have chosen to field all the three times.

India's youngest

0

No. of players younger than Rishabh Pant to play for India in T20Is, who makes his debut at 19 years, 120 days. Ishant (19y, 152d) was previous youngest.
