England begin the chase

 

Over Summary: 0 0 0 0 0 1; England 1-0 after 1 overs 

Zak Crawley (1), Ben Duckett (0); Jasprit Bumrah 1-0-1-0

 

What a ball it is by Bumrah as it leaves Crawley feeling for it, but is unable to take an edge.

 

3:37 PM

India all-out for 255

So India has been dismissed for 255 as Ashwin is caught brilliantly by Ben Foakes off Rehan Ahmed and England will need 399 runs to win, 23 more than what they chased against India in 2023 in England. And remember, since Ashwin was dropped, 24 more runs were added by the Indian team. 

3:35 PM

Mukesh survives

 

Over Summary: 0 0 0 W 0 0; India 255-9 after 78 overs 

R Ashwin (29), Mukesh Kumar (0); Tom Hartley 27-3-77-4

 

Mukesh Kumar can survive the two balls and Ashwin will have a chance to score more and get the Indian lead past 400. 

 

3:28 PM

Finally Bumrah is out

Finally, the catch is taken. But imagine at least 24 more runs than what England would have had to chase otherwise. There could be more additions to it. As of now, Bumrah is out for 0 off 26 balls. He made a valuable contribution in the 26-run partnership for the ninth wicket. 

3:25 PM

250 up for India

 

Over Summary: 0 0 0 6 0 4; India 255-8 after 77 overs 

Jsprit Bumrah (0), R Ashwin (29); Rehan Ahmed 24-5-88-2

 

No short leg, only one slip catching and Ashwin gets a catch and there is no run. Finally, the shot that Stokes wants Ashwin to play and he plays it well to get a six. 20 runs added since Ashwin was dropped by Crawley. Four more, it means that 10 off the over, 24 runs since Ashin was dropped Bumrah will have to negate a whole over.

Jsprit Bumrah (0), R Ashwin (18); Rehan Ahmed 23-5-78-2

 

Only a single as Stokes continues to play the waiting game against Ashwin.

Jsprit Bumrah (0), R Ashwin (16); Rehan Ahmed 22-5-77-2

 

A loose short ball and Ashwin hits it for a four. An edge and no second slip means two more runs for India. Runs are coming easily for Ashiwn here. England are playing the waiting. Since Ashwin was dropped 11 runs have already been added.
