Woakes continues. Jaiswal opens the face and steers it to point for a single. Gill stands tall and punches a back-of-length delivery for two. Tucks the next through square leg - two more. Plays one to point - no run. Defends the last two balls calmly.
Five runs from the over. After 31 overs, India are 116 for 2.
Carse angles one in. Jaiswal blocks, then is beaten by a beauty. Another solid block follows. He finally guides one down to third man for a single. Just 2 off the over. After 32 overs, India are 118 for 2.
Woakes into Gill - and he starts with a boundary! A crisp drive to begin the over. Next ball punched square but straight to point. Clipped to midwicket - no run. Another boundary! Gill times it beautifully again. He defends the last two.
Eight runs from the over. After 33 overs, India are 126 for 2.
Gill looking increasingly assured out there.
