Eng 238-8 (59 Ovs) & 407 vs India 587 & 427 decl | Scorecard

Prasidh Krishna continues. Carse steers one through point for a single to begin the over. A big appeal follows as Tongue looks to whip it away but misses - the umpire remains unmoved, and the replay confirms a thick inside edge. Tongue then sinks low and lets one go outside off, followed by a back-foot defence towards silly mid-on. He fends at the next delivery and it nearly kisses the edge. A dot ball ends the over - just one run from it. After 57 overs, England are 227 for 8.

Ravindra Jadeja returns to the attack, replacing Akash Deep. Carse starts with a solid defence, then slams the next delivery for a boundary. Drama follows - a thick edge off Carse is put down by KL Rahul at first slip. Tongue sees out the remainder of the over, defending confidently. Five runs come off it - after 58 overs, England are 232 for 8.

Prasidh carries on. Carse fends awkwardly and gets a leading edge that rolls through point for no run. He drives towards gully, again without reward. Then, a statement shot - Carse frees his arms and pulls a short ball for six! He ducks under the follow-up bouncer and plays out the last delivery. Six runs from the over - England move to 238 for 8 after 59 overs.
