5 OUT! Drags it on! Umesh Yadav draws first blood! How much did India need this? A lot at the moment. It was another short one. A length which Roy has not been comfortable with. He goes for the pull but the shot selection is wrong as the ball is not short enough to play it. The ball takes the bottom edge and goes onto hit the leg stump behind. Umesh Yadav is pumped up and so are the Indian players. Roy starts walking back to the pavilion but he has given a brilliant start to England. 50/1

| Jos Buttler Wk | 69 | 46 | 8 | 2 | 150 |
|
17.4 OUT! A 5-fer for Kuldeep Yadav. His first in T20Is. Buttler doesn't last the distance. What a start to the tour for the wrist spinner. He has upset Buttler's rhythm and got him out eventually. He flights this one again around off, similar delivery to the dropped catch two balls back. Jos throws his bat at it again and skies it. The ball goes straight up in the air towards long on and Virat Kohli takes the catch to send him home. What a revelation Kuldeep has been for India. 141/7

| Alex Hales | 8 | 18 | 0 | 0 | 44.44 |
|
11.3 OUT! And gone! Hales never looked comfortable against the chinaman. He tosses this one up on leg, Hales moves across to play the slog sweep but misses it altogether. The ball rattles the stumps as England lose their second. 95/2

| Eoin Morgan C | 7 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 116.66 |
|
13.1 OUT! A much-needed breakthrough for India to say the least. Not a good shot from the skipper, Eoin Morgan. A flighted delivery around off, he goes for the slog sweep but only manages to sky it towards the mid-wicket region. Opposition skipper, Virat Kohli, stationed himself there for such shots and takes this catch comfortably. He has a smile on his face. Kuldeep Yadav is looking dangerous for England. 106/3

| Jonny Bairstow | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
13.3 OUT! Kuldeep Yadav, remember the name. What an absolute peach from him. A tossed up wrong 'un outside off, it pitches and goes past the flashing blade of Bairstow. He throws his bat at it but misses it. MS Dhoni is quick as a hawk and removes the bails in a jiffy. Jonny doesn't even wait for the signal as he knows he dragged his leg out of his crease. Two wickets in three deliveries and Yadav has pushed the English team back. 107/4

| Joe Root | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
13.4 OUT! Joe Root has not got his bat down in time! Goodness gracious! Kuldeep Yadav has made a mess of the in-form English batting line-up. Another cracker to follow the last one. Another wrong 'un, tossed up around off, Joe comes forward to push at the ball. It sneaks past the outside edge and goes to Dhoni. He fumbles it initially but gathers it eventually and removes the bails. The decision has been taken to the third umpire but the Indians are already celebrating. Replays find Root short and Dhoni now has the most stumpings in T20Is. Three wickets in four balls and Yadav is on a hat-trick here. 107/5

| Moeen Ali | 6 | 8 | 1 | 0 | 75 |
|
15.4 OUT! Another one bites the dust! England are falling apart here. Moeen Ali now makes his way back to the dug out. It is a short ball from Pandya and it is outside off. Ali tries to drag his pull through the leg side, never a good idea that. He gets a top edge which balloons high up in the air towards Raina at covers who accepts a dolly. 117/6

18.3 OUT! Jordan bags a first ball duck! An unfortunate dismissal you can say! It is a full toss on middle, an inswinging one. Jordan tries to drive but gets an inside edge onto his boot. The ball lobs up back to the bowler who takes it in his followthrough. Can India now bowl England out? 149/8

0.5 OUT! BOWLED 'EM! What do you want when you are not defending a big total? An early wicket and England have got exactly that. David Willey provides it and it is a big one of the dangerous Dhawan. A full delivery outside off, Dhawan goes for the booming drive with no foot movement. The ball takes the inside edge and shatters the stumps behind. Dhawan walks back dejected and the Englishmen are ecstatic. 7/1

| Rohit Sharma | 32 | 30 | 3 | 1 | 106.66 |
|
12.4 OUT! Gone. A wicket against the run of play. Rohit looks to get into the act as well. Adil tosses this one up outside off, Sharma sees this as an opportunity and plays the lofted cover drive straight to Morgan stationed there. A wicket too late in the context of the game as they don't really celebrate it. Rohit Sharma played the perfect foil for KL Rahul. A magnificent partnership comes to an end which has completely tilted the game into India's favour. They need another 33. 130/2
