ENG vs IND Live Cricket Score

5.4 OUT! And Rohit succumbs to pressure. Willey is pumped and rightly so. A length ball on middle and off, Rohit flicks it towards deep square leg from outside his crease. Rather than waiting for the ball, he reaches for it away from his body and as a result, the connection isn't right. Mark Wood takes an easy catch at deep backward square leg. England have their first and what a start from them! 13/1

17.4 OUT! As soon as the first replay is shown on the giant screen, England start to celebrate, one can hear Stokes screaming - Yayyyy!!! A tossed up ball on middle, Kohli works it towards mid-wicket and looks for a run initially. Then he aborts but Dhawan has comes down a long way. In the meantime, Stokes gets to the ball and scores a direct hit at the bowler's end. They appeal and the third umpire is referred. The replays show that Dhawan is inches short of the crease. The growing and a dangerous-looking partnership is cut short. Good start for England after the drinks break. In a way, this was always on the cards as both batsmen were looking a bit uneasy with their calling. It happened at the start of this partnership as well but then Root missed the chance. 84/2

30.1 OUT! Adil Rashid strikes gold! The smile on his face says it all. Kohli is completely bamboozled. He is standing there shell-shocked. A leg spinner by Rashid, drifting in and landing around middle. Kohli stays back to attempt to keep it out on the leg side (probably misreading it to be a wrong 'un) but it spins past his willow and disturbs the stumps. Big celebration from England. And maybe, Kuldeep Yadav too will be celebrating within himself after seeing this ball spin viciously. You need some magic from the deck to go through the defense of one of the best in the business at the moment, if not the best. Kohli not converting his fifty into a hundred is also a rare phenomenon. 156/4

24.2 OUT! Drags it on! Karthik fails to make this opportunity count. Rashid tosses it up generously outside off and lands it full just outside off. It spins away after landing as Karthik tries to swat it off his front foot. But unfortunately for him, it gathers the inner half of his bat and shatters the stumps. He was looking in scintillating form but only managed to add 21 runs to the total. His stand with the skipper was worth 41 runs. England will be pleased to see his back. 125/3

45.5 OUT! Willey has removed Dhoni! Excellent delivery by him. He serves it on the shorter side around off and it changes its direction slightly after landing. Dhoni gets squared up in defense and it shapes away to take the outside edge. Buttler takes yet another safe catch behind the wickets to end MS' stay at the crease. Eoin Morgan continues to make inspirational bowling changes. He has been right on the money. 221/7

31 OUT! Eoin Morgan, you beauty. Great pro-activeness shown by him to plant a leg gully for Raina. Rashid dishes out a leg spinner around middle and off, Raina gets forward to work it across the line but it takes the upper half of his bat and goes behind to Root at leg gully. He crouches low to catch it inches off the ground and India lose half their side now. Once again Adil has hunted down Raina. England have roared back in this contest all thanks to the leggie. 158/5

38.2 OUT! Once again Morgan has done the trick. He does the bowling change, brings Mark Wood into the attack and the pacer gets rid of the dangerous Hardik Pandya. Bowls it on a good length just outside off and it skids back in after hitting the deck. Pandya with an unsure footwork pushes inside the line and gets a faint nick behind to Buttler. He makes no mistake and India slip further. Big wicket for England because the partnership was just beginning to blossom, it was worth 36 off 44 balls and India were on the cusp of pressing on the accelerator. 194/6

50 OUT! Kumar's falls off the last delivery. A full toss he receives with all his might, tries to clear the fence but fails to generate enough power. It goes high in the air but not long enough. Bairstow moves across to his left from deep mid-wicket and takes the skier easily. Willey gets a 3-wicket haul. INDIA END ON 256/8! 256/8

9.1 OUT! Chahal has struck with his very first ball, albeit in the form of a run out! What a lucky break for India - another one against the run of play. A touch short on middle, Root taps it towards short mid-wicket and calls for a quick single. Vince responds but it is a very risky run. It is Hardik Pandya whom they are challenging and the one to whom he is throwing - Mr. Dhoni. The throw is a poor one as Hardik has to run to his right and then pick up and throw. But the class of Dhoni converts it into a decent one, getting low to his right and hitting the stumps. He immediately appeals, rather signals that it is out. It is referred upstairs and boy - how many times have we seen MS wrong? The bat is not even touching the line when the bails are dislodged. 183 more needed from 245 balls. 74/2

4.4 OUT! There it is! And India get a wicket against the run of play. The hard-hitting Jonny Bairstow has to walk back. Trying to hit one too many balls and finds the fielder. Length ball on middle and leg, it skids a bit, Bairstow flicks it but finds Raina at short mid-wicket. The Indians rejoice and are in all smiles. Bairstow falls after a good start. England are 214 runs behind. 43/1
