Prince Yadav to Madhevere, out Madhevere Run Out!! 1 run completed. Tadiwanashe Marumani said no for the second run, but Madhevere wanted strike and he charged back for the second run. The throw from Dube was right next to the stumps, Ishan Kishan collected the ball and whipped the sticks off to catch Madhevere well short of his crease. Again he mistimes a slog when he wanted to launch down the ground, ball takes the edge and rolls to fine leg. End of a pretty handy innings. Madhevere run out (Shivam Dube/Ishan Kishan) 39(34) [4s-3 6s-1]

Mayank Yadav to Tadiwanashe Marumani, FOUR, that is a handsome clip from the crease to this pacy full ball. Lets this full delivery come and sends it over mid-wicket, long-on couldn't cut it off to the left. Slightly spoils the figures for Mayank Yadav but it's still only 18/2 in 4 overs

Mayank Yadav to Tadiwanashe Marumani, no run, short of length delivery angling away, Marumani slogs and misses. India ask for a review but there's nothing on UltraEdge. In fact the bat was almost a stump away from the ball when it passed

Ravi Bishnoi to Ryan Burl, out Caught by Tilak Varma!! Goes high, has he timed this well enough, the long boundary doesn't help Burl as he holes out at the long-off fence. Bishnoi sticks to his ploy of bowling wide to the LHB, not exactly very wide and that's what trapped Burl into his shot. He tried to clear the boundary, but Tilak judged it to perfection a few yards inside the rope. The promise ends from Ryan Burl. Ryan Burl c Tilak Varma b Ravi Bishnoi 26(35) [4s-1 6s-1]

Prince Yadav to Ryan Burl, leg byes, 1 run, this looks close, Prince is confident and so is Kishan behind the stumps. Another one of those incoming deliveries and Burl once again fails to whip it to the leg-side and is hit on the pads in front of the wickets. The umpire thinks its high and the replays show it would have only kissed the bails. Burl survives!

Mayank Yadav to Brian Bennett, out Caught by Ishan Kishan!! First ball. India take a review. And Brian Bennett is gone. What a start for India and Mayank Yadav. 149kph! Starts with a peach of a delivery - back of a length close to off and it moves away sharply. Bennett is caught in the crease, pokes at it and gets a thin outside edge. The umpire doesn't raise his finger, but Kishan behind the stumps is confident and wants Iyer to go for a review. He does and the replays show some movement on the UltraEdge. Brian Bennett goes for a golden duck! Brian Bennett c Ishan Kishan b Mayank Yadav 0(1)
