    These two have the most underrated cover drives in the world. Just putting that out there.

    It has been all seam from India so far and that continues with Shardul Thakur coming into the attack.

    Buttler drives him expertly for four.

    The days of batsmen fearing the spinners seems long gone. Will we ever have a big three like Murali, Giles and Warne again? The greatest three spinners of all time in that order .

    Buttler nails a couple into the ground but both go into the hands of fielders - first Kohli and then Rohit. As ever Kohli is right in the game at short extra cover. He's having a word or too, I reckon.

    Ian: If Buttler goes cheaply it is all over for England so come on Jos please, you're due.

  8. Eng 76-3published at 12 overs

    Malan 17, Buttler 3

    Prasidh Krishna got Jos Buttler with a perfect yorker in the previous game. I'm sure that'll be in the back of the mind of England's stand-in skipper. He's away with a two and a single.

    A flashing drive from Dawid Malan. It was in the air and not far away from backward point but four.

    Wayne Ellis: Banana bread would be so much better without any banana

    Target 330

    This game, and the series, probably rests on the new batsman then.

    What has Jos Buttler got? He hasn't reached double figures in this format since the World Cup final.

    A massive blow. Stokes could have it that anywhere. It was a horrible ball in truth. Stokes hit it straight to deep square leg.

  13. Postpublished at 14:14 BST 28 March 2021

    It has got to Stokes at waist height but he is walking down the pitch. I think it's going to be fine for India.

  14. Umpire reviewpublished at 10.3 overs

    Ben Stokes is out! He has nailed a full toss to deep square leg. They're just checking whether it was a no-ball on height.

    Thanks Mike. Since I left you I've dropped some leftover curry on the carpet. My girlfriend is at the supermarket. Send help.

    Powerplay is over and with that I'll hand you over to Matt Henry.

    I snaffled some banana bread from a friend yesterday and it's demanding my attention. Lockdown staple!

    Expensive over from Krishna as Malan cuts elegantly for the third boundary of the over.

  18. Eng 62-2published at 9.3 overs

    Malan hasn't seen much of the strike so far but he's on top of this to drive Krishna through the covers for four.

    Eng 57-2published at 9.1 overs

    Another bumper from Krishna to Stokes - he pulls hard and his top edge sails directly over his head for a maximum.

  20. Eng 51-2published at 9 overs

    Only a single off Bhuvneshwar's fifth over - he's cost just 25 runs so far.

    How long will Kohli keep him going for? No spin yet, and that's where England scored heavily on Friday.
