India 87-0 (23 ovs) vs England | Scorecard

Carse comes back into the attack, for his second spell. Jaiswal misses out on some runs as he mistimes the full toss to mid-off.  The next ball is again a full toss as Jaiswal drives it through the covers for a four.

Poor bowling from Carse as he drifts down the leg side and Jaiswal misses the glance but the ball goes fine off his pads for four leg byes.

He taps the fourth ball for a single and Rahul keeps out the last two balls.

The runs are flowing nicely for the Indians. Rahul plays another handsome drive through the covers off a full delivery from Stokes for a boundary.

India have got some momentum, with 24 coming from the last three overs, including four boundaries.

Carse bowls a beauty to beat Jaiswal on the outside edge as the left-hander looks to defend. He is beaten again, perhaps for the fourth time, attempting to cut the pacer.

He then gets bat on ball, cutting it on the bounce as Ollie Pope makes a diving stop, to keep it down to three runs.

Rahul plays a glorious drive off a full wide delivery perfectly in the gap at covers for a four to take his score into the 40s.
