  1. Ind 256-4published at 35.5 overs

    Expensive over from Sam Curran.

    Another leg-side wide is followed by two fours - Hardik helps the ball to third man before Pant slashes at a wide one and it races away through backward point.

  2. Ind 247-4published at 35.4 overs

    Hardik steps across his stumps and watches a bouncer slide down his leg-side. Can it be a wide when you're standing on off? Shake of the head from Sam Curran.

    Two balls later and Curran scuds one over Hardik's head. Another wide - no arguing with that one.

    The England bowlers and fielders won't agree with me here, but Rishabh Pant really is brilliant to watch.

  4. Ind 243-4published at 35 overs

    Pant pushes to mid-wicket and scampers for two. Livingstone picks up and throws down the stumps at the bowler's end but is only able to clip Hardik's ankle.

  5. 6 runs

    Ind 238-4published at 34.3 overs

    Out of the back of the hand for Rashid, but Pant spots it, takes a few steps and clobbers the ball back over Rashid's head.

  6. Ind 230-4published at 34 overs

    Moeen and Rashid bowled out their spells uninterrupted in the second ODI on Friday. Buttler varying it up a lot more today.

  7. Ind 230-4published at 33.5 overs

    A shorter ball drifting down leg, Hardik helps it on its way for four more.

  8. Ind 225-4published at 33.2 overs

    Reece Topley is out of the attack after two overs and Sam Curran returns.

    Pant whips him off his legs for four.

  9. Ind 221-4published at 33 overs

    Excellent over from Rashid, who's spinning it in hard and fast, wide of the crease.

    India can only get away with two singles.

    Time for a drink.

    This partnership is worth 62 off 46 balls.

    Kush K: Hardik and Pant are two of the most exciting batsman in the world right now.

  12. Ind 219-4published at 32 overs

    Tight over Topley who is airing his death over variations. Sharp yorker, cutter, slow bouncer...

  13. Tymal Mills Q&Apublished at 11:21 BST 28 March 2021

    Last chance to get your questions in for Tymal Mills - so far we've learnt Brendon McCullum is his most difficult opponent and he rates Trent Rockets as one of the strongest teams in this summer's Hundred.

  14. Ind 216-4published at 31 overs

    Dot ball to finish the over. You can't wallop them all, eh Rishabh?

  15. 6 runs

    Ind 216-4published at 30.5 overs

    Rashid returns in place of Livingstone and Pant heaves him over mid-wicket for six.

    That's his 50 off just 44 balls. Is he just getting started?

    Robin Johnson: They say you double your score after 30 overs: India on for a MAHOOSIVE score here.

  17. Ind 206-4published at 30 overs

    Ooh, tidy slower ball from Topley, Hardik can't get it away.

  18. Ind 204-4published at 29.3 overs

    Topley back on for Moeen and Pant knocks his second ball to bring up the 200.

    More runs from Krunal next ball - driving through backward point and past the despairing dive of Jason Roy.

  20. Ind 198-4published at 29 overs

    Oh my!

    Pant tries to drive Livingstone back down the ground. Livingstone falls over in the follow through and isn't in a position for the caught and bowled but he manages to stick out a foot to block the ball whistling to the ropes.

    Most remarkable bit of footwork on a cricket field since I saw a friend accidentally over-head kick the ball over the boundary.
