JPN vs IND Live Cricket Score

1.2 OUT! TAKEN! Ibrahim Takahashi strikes in his first over. He tosses it up, full and on middle, and gets it to turn in a bit. Sanju Samson stretches out in front and tries to slog it across the line but gets it from the inside half of the bat. He does not get any timing as the ball flies towards deep mid-wicket, where Benjamin Ito-Davis comes a bit forward and takes a good catch. Japan players are ecstatic here as both Indian openers are back in the hut. 9/2

1 OUT! IN THE AIR...GONE! Charlie Hara-Hinze has his big moment in this historic game. He gives this one some more air, full and around middle. Abhishek Sharma gets down on one knee and tries to swipe it away but the ball bounces a bit more than he expects. It takes the top edge and flies high in the air towards short fine. Shoma Sugaya-Slater runs to his left, keeps his eyes on the ball and takes a fantastic catch. Hinze is on a celebratory run, and he cannot be caught. India are 7/1 as Abhishek goes back for a golden duck. 7/1

2.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Benjamin Ito-Davis gets a wicket, and he deserves it. A flighted delivery from him, full and on off, turns away. Ishan Kishan goes for the big swipe across the line but loses his bottom hand. Gets a top edge as the ball goes straight up in the air towards cover, where Makoto Taniyama takes a simple catch. India are 14/3 now. 14/3

4.5 OUT! TAKEN! Charlie Hara-Hinze gets his second wicket and the Indian skipper goes back now. He gives this one some more air, full and around off, turns it away.

It goes high in the air towards deep extra cover, where Makoto Taniyama settles under it and takes a safe catch. 32/4

4 OUT! CAUGHT! The Japanese skipper falls. Washington darts this one in, quick through the air and landing just outside off. Fleming looks to muscle it back over the bowler's head once more, but doesn't connect the way he wants to, and the ball skies off the leading edge, straight into the safe hands of short third where Yash Thakur takes a dolly. Japan are 25/3, needing 8 runs from 6 balls. 25/3

0.5 OUT! LACHLAN IS RUN OUT! Disaster for Japan. Incredible fielding display by Ishan Kishan. Good length, outside off, and turning away. Lachlan uses his wrists to steer it away towards deep square leg. They run the first run hard and turn back for the second. Ishan Kishan sprints to his left and fires in a rapid throw at the striker's end, hitting the target dead on. Lachlan dives desperately but comes up short of his ground. The square leg umpire doesn't even need a replay, and up goes the finger straight away. Japan are 2/1, chasing 33 runs. 2/1

1.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Sundar takes revenge right away. Slows it up through the air this time and gives it a good flight. Lands it full on the stumps and the ball bits back into the batter. Ibrahim Takahashi once again opts to take on the bowler with a slog sweep, but mistimes it badly off the inner half of the bat and offers a catching practice to Ravi Bishnoi stationed at deep square leg. Japan are 7/2, chasing 33 runs. 7/2
