    1.1 my, oh my. Kohli's run out. Length ball, angling towards, or maybe past leg stump. Provokes a big lbw appeal as Kohli shuffles across and tries to work it into the leg side. Hares out of the crease, looking to steal a leg-bye, and Jordan races through, picks up, and underarms a flick into the stumps to catch Kohli short. He had to turn around because Rahul didn't respond to his call, but there was definitely no single there. Hawkeye says the ball would have gone on to clip leg stump, but that's all academic now 4/1

    7.2 length ball on middle stump, and Rahul slogs and misses. Clears his front leg, looks to hit over midwicket, and the ball beats his inside edge and sends the bails flashing. Replays show Stokes has clearly overstepped, but the umpires have all missed it 65/2
    13.3 Raina goes! he was looking to crash this over extra cover but he ends up slicing the ball, it goes high and the man at extra cover pouches it, Raina's done his bit here though after the early Kohli jolt 120/3
    19.2 bouncer, angling in, Dhoni's a little slow on the hook, and top-edges straight to the man at short fine leg 191/5
    18.1 and he's gone. Strange, strange dismissal. Back of a length, and he spots the slower ball very very late. Shapes to pull, checks himself, and his bat is stopped somewhere in front of the stumps when the ball reaches it. Finds the edge and somehow carries to the keeper. That's possibly off the back of the bat 177/4

    19.6 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 202/6

    6.2 tossed up slow, wide of off, and Mishra has answered India's call. Not the brightest of shots, looks to slog-sweep, but it's far too wide outside off, and far too slow, and it drops shorter than he'd like, turns sharply, and the top edge balloons almost vertically, allowing Dhoni to take a few steps to his left and catch it near where a short leg may have stood 55/2
    1.3 they're checking if this is a clean catch. Full, angling into the stumps. Looks to clip into the leg side and inside-edges into pad. Lobs up and slip dives forward to catch it two-handed. Anil Choudhury soft-signals not out. It's inside-edge, then boot, then pad. Raina dives forward and seems to have taken it cleanly, and it's out. I think the umpire may have felt the ball bounced into ground before hitting pad, but that clearly wasn't the case, as replays showed 8/1

    13.4 and Chahal has two in two! This one comes out of the front of his hand. Looks like some sort of flipper. Root goes for the pull, but it isn't quite short enough for it. Hurries through, hits the back pad. Not sure if it hit in line with off stump or slightly outside, but umpire Choudhury has no doubts. Replays show that hit right in line with off stump 119/4
    13.3 googly, starts from wide outside off, and forces Morgan to fetch the slog sweep against the turn and against the angle. Top-edges it, and Pant takes his first international catch, moving to his right from deep midwicket and sliding on his knees 119/3
    14.2 dug in short outside off, and Buttler is gone! Looks to fetch the pull from outside off, and it hurries through quicker than he expects, loops up off the top edge, and Kohli runs from mid-off towards mid-on to take a well-judged running catch. England are capitulating 119/5
    15.4 and another. Chahal has four in two overs. Short ball, pulled away in the air, and Raina takes that right on the edge of the rope, with both hands above his head. Had to jump jusy a touch, and then, as he turns to see where he is, loses his balance slightly, but manages to steady himself and stay inside the rope. Just inside. His toe was so, so close to the boundary cushions. They check with the third umpire, who confirms that Chahal has a five-wicket haul 127/7
    15.1 down the track, and now Moeen holes out. Chahal fires it across him, forces him to fetch the slog from wide outside off. Googly too. Ends up top-edging it high in the air, and Kohli jogs in from long-on to take another 123/6
    16.1 I can't keep up with which batsman is coming in and which batsman is getting dismissed. And off who. Bumrah is the bowler, I think, and he bowls one just on the perfect length to hit top of off stump if the batsman misses. Liam Plunkett is the batsman, I think, and he heaves across the line and misses 127/9
    15.6 steps out, and Chahal has a six-for. Doesn't get to the pitch, Jordan, and he slogs against the turn and misses by a long way. Dhoni grabs the ball outside off and rips out all the stumps 127/8

    16.3 full, aiming for middle stump. Mills gives himself room to try and smash that down the ground. He only manages a thick edge, and Kohli takes a super catch, it's flying to him at a great speed, straight at his face, and he takes it, falling to his left 127/10

Match Notes
