So England need 318 to win. The pitch looks a belter to bat on but it will not be an easy task against this bowling attack which has proved to be a potent one. India will look to carry the momentum and strike eary wickets. Can England scale this huge total or will Indian bowlers back their batters? Join us for the chase to find out.
A very awry bowling performance towards the end from England that might cost them this game here. They started off well and managed to pull things back but they lost the plot towards the end. It looked like they would restrict India to under 300 but not to be. The two spinners had a tough outing. Rashid went for 66 in his 9 overs while Moeen went for 28 in his 3. Moeen particularly had a tough day as he also dropped Shikhar Dhawan. The pace bowlers had a very good outing before they were taken to the cleaners towards the end. Stokes was the pick of the bowler picking up 3/34. Wood scalped two but was expensive towards the end.
After being put into bat, openers, Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan did not get off to a flying start but got the side to a steady start before the former departed. Dhawan though found his groove and along with the skipper added a 105-run stand. Both the Delhi lads got to their fifties before the skipper departed. It looked like 320 was on the board but after that wickets started to fall at regular intervals as Shreyas failed and Dhawan missed out on his ton by just 2 runs. From 169/1, the hosts were reeling at 205/5. It looked like England would restrict the hosts to under 300 but that was just the calm before the storm. Out walked Krunal Pandya on his debut and it looked like he had no butterflies whatsoever. He took the attack to the English attack from the get-go. Rahul too joined the party and the pair just took the game from thereon. The duo added an unbeaten 112 stand with both scoring quick-fire fifties and taking India to a very good total.
79 runs off the final 6 overs and India have shifted the momentum of this game and will now feel like they are in the driver's seat. What a fantastic knock from KL Rahul. But it was the Krunal Pandya show on his debut. He showed his class and has marked this special occasion with a historic knock!
49.6 overs (4 Runs)
FOUR! Nice improvisation! Length delivery on middle, Rahul plays a paddle scoop towards fine leg for a boundary. INDIA FINISH WITH 317/5!
49.5 overs (2 Runs) Length delivery on off, Rahul punches it through covers. The fielder in the deep is slow to react. The batsmen get two runs.
49.4 overs (1 Run) NOT OUT! Krunal Pandya is safe! Full on middle, Pandya lofts it over mid-wicket. The batsmen take the single. Krunal wants the second but Rahul does well to send him back. The fielder throws it at the bowler's end where Wood takes the bails off. It is referred upstairs. Replays show that Krunal Pandya's dive saved him there.
49.3 overs (1 Run) Back of a length on middle, Rahul looks to go big but gets hit on the pads. The ball goes towards the off side. The batsmen take a leg bye.

FIFTY FOR KRUNAL! Fifty on debut and what a knock this has been! No butterflies whatsoever on his debut and he has marked this special occasion with a special knock. He raises his bat and looks at the heavens, to remember his late father. He is pumped and this is a class knock from him. Full on the pads, Krunal flicks it to square leg and gets a single to bring up his fifty. It is the fastest fifty for an ODI debutant. Hardik is all smiles for his elder brothers.
