1-1 after 1 over, 224 more runs needed…
Better over, 18 from it, 19-1 from 2 overs
67-1 after 7 overs, slightly under the required run rate but ahead of where India were at the same stage.
I would be watching but strangely, I just pressed the wrong button and The Falcon v Winter Soldier game popped up.
Or something
All over now
Buveneshwar bowling brilliantly… slowing England down
142-4
142-5
Blame MCU for such short shows
Run rate up to 20 runs an over for the last 4 overs
How long are England going to persevere with the comedian, Roy, as opener? Get Hales back in.
Keeping the comedy value at the top of the order.
Stokes to Rohit Sharma, OUT
Stokes , playing his first ODI since his starring role in the 2019 WC final, provides England with the breakthrough . Short and wide - wider than a set of stumps outside off - Rohit chases it with a cut and ends up slashing it behind to Buttler for a straightforward catch behind the stumps. It could’ve been an off-side wide had Rohit had chased it
Rohit Sharma c †Buttler b Stokes 28 (42b 4x4 0x6) SR: 66.67
64-1
Shit ball gets the wicket.
India crusing along very comfortably
20 overs gone, 83-1
Rashid to S Dhawan, 1 run
Will another half-tracker result in a wicket for England? Moeen Ali runs across to his right from deep midwicket only to drop it. Fairly straightforward catch. Dragged away in the air and Dhawan gets away
Was mentally celebrating before he caught it methinks…
Easiest of dropped catches by Mooen. FFS
Kohli 50 from 50 balls
Dhawan seeing the ball as if it’s a beach ball.
30 overs 159-1, double that and England will be chasing 320+
Dhawan dropped on 16 & 59 by Roy and Ali, currently 83*
100 run partnership with Kholi from 95 balls.
