End of 11th over | India 79/3
Another decent over for England, this time from Chris Jordan. Gives away just 4 from it.
19:53 (IST) Mar 18
At halfway mark | India 75/3
5 runs from the 10th over bowled by Ben Stokes. India were cruising but wickets of KL Rahul and Virat Kohli in quick succession have pegged them back a bit. We are halfway through and India still in decent position with 75 on the board and Suryakumar oozing in confidence. Rishabh Pant has joined him recently and there is Shreyas Iyer and slogger Hardik Pandya to follow. But at this stage this Surya-Pant partnership is crucial for India.
19:46 (IST) Mar 18
8.4 overs | Rashid to Kohli | STUMPED!
That was just not necessary at this stage. Virat Kohli charges down the track but completely misses the googly from Adil Rashid. Jos Buttler does the rest behind the stumps. Virat Kohli falls for 1. India now in a spot of bother after losing two wickets in quick succession. IND 70/3
19:44 (IST) Mar 18
End of 8th over | India 68/2
FOUR! A boundary from Suryaumar to end the first over from Ben Stokes. Creamed through extra cover region as the ball races to the fence. Surya has moved to 35 off just 18 balls.
19:41 (IST) Mar 18
7.4 overs | Stokes to Rahul | OUT!
Ben Stokes strikes in his first over. Rahul was looking in god touch today but gets out after playing a loose shot. Hits the ball straight to Jofra Archer at mid-off. Rahul departs for 14 0ff 17 balls. IND 63/2
19:37 (IST) Mar 18
6.5 overs | Rashid to Surya | SIX!
A monstrous strike this time from Surya over cover. Googly from Adil Rashid but it was wide outside off. Surya goes inside-out and dlams it over the cover fence. The ball lands in the vacant stands. Surya has raced to 28 off 14 balls. He is batting at a strike rate of 200 at the moment. IND 58/1
19:36 (IST) Mar 18
Swept and FOUR! Fifty up for India!
FOUR! A premeditated sweep from Suryakumar off Adil Rashid and the top edge takes it away to the fine-leg fence. India cross the 50-run mark in 6.4 overs.
19:33 (IST) Mar 18
End of Powerplay | India 45/1
Excellent start from India this time around barring the early dismissal of Rohit Sharma. Both Rahul and Surya looking in good touch. The counterattack from Surya has lifted the weight off the shoulders of KL Rahul. A pretty good powerplay for India.
19:31 (IST) Mar 18
5.4 overs | Jordan to Surya | FOUR!
Deft touch from Surya! Allows the Chris Jordan delivery to come in then just places it beautifully in the gap between the point and the short third-man fielder. Another boundary for Surya. He is looking like a man on a mission.
19:29 (IST) Mar 18
5.2 overs | Jordan to KL | FOUR!
Chris Jordan drifts down the leg side and that was too easy for KL Rahul. Just guides it to the vacant fine-leg region to pick up four runs. Rahul growing in confidence. IND 40/1
19:26 (IST) Mar 18
End of 5th over | India 34/1
7 runs off the over from Mark Wood including a boundary. Although India have lost Rohit early again but it has been a much better start from India when compared to the the previous two games, where they batted first. Surya and Rahul both looking confident. Chris Jordan now comes into the attack.
19:23 (IST) Mar 18
4.3 overs | Wood to Suryakumar | FOUR!
This time a punch off the backfoot and the ball races to the cover fence. A 149 km/hr delivery from Mark Wood and Surya got right on top of it. Just a mere push and the ball reached the fence in no time.
19:19 (IST) Mar 18
First-ball SIX for Suryakumar Yadav!
Wow! What a start to his international career. Exquisite from Suryakumar Yadav. A bouncer from Jofra Archer and Surya hooks it over the fine-leg stand. A cracking shot first-ball from Surya.
19:17 (IST) Mar 18
3.4 overs | Archer to Rohit | OUT!
Slower delivery does the trick for Jofra Archer as Rohit Sharma hits the ball straight back to him. Archer completes a simple catch. A soft dismissal for Rohit as he walks back for 12. IND 21/1

A tight first over from Mark Wood. Just a single off it in form of a leg-bye. Jofra Archer to continue from the other end.
19:11 (IST) Mar 18
Sublime from Rahul!
FOUR! A cracking punch off the backfoot and Rahul finally gets going. That came right from the middle of his bat and raced to the backward point fence. A boundary to end the Jofra Archer first over. IND 18/0. Mark Wood now comes into the attack.
19:05 (IST) Mar 18
Archer shares the new ball with Rashid
A terrific first over for India as Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul collect 12 runs off it. Pacer Jofra Archer to share the new ball with Adil Rashid from the other end. IND 12/0
19:04 (IST) Mar 18
9000 T20 runs for Rohit Sharma!
A comfortable single for Rohit and he becomes the second Indian after Virat Kohli to get to the 9000-run mark in all T20 cricket (including IPL, domestic and international cricket).
19:02 (IST) Mar 18
0.3 overs | Rashid to Rohit | FOUR!
This time Adil Rashid drifts down the leg side. A googly on the pads and Rohit works it towards the fine-leg region to collect four runs. A perfect start for India.
19:00 (IST) Mar 18
First-ball SIX from Rohit!
0.1 overs: Wow! What a start from Rohit Sharma. Tossed up delivery from Adil Rashid. Rohit frees his arms and slams the ball over the long off fence. A maximum to start the India innings. IND 6/0
