India 45-1 (10 ovs) & 471 vs Eng 465 | Scorecard
Woakes from round the wicket beats Sudharsan on the outside edge as he plays inside the line to a ball which holds its line.
Sudharsan plays very late as he defends with soft hands with the outside edge going along the ground past the slips for a four.
He clips the fifth ball through square leg for two runs before the left-hander is beaten last ball as some England's players behind the wicket appeal but nothing from Woakes.
Rahul clips Carse through square leg as Tongue runs a long way before he stops the ball just inside the ropes but ends up deflecting it away from his team-mate allowing the Indian batters enough time to run all four.
Carse overpitches on the stumps as Rahul plays a cracking straight drive past mid-on for a boundary.
Two balls later he plays another delightful shot, caressing the wide half-volley in the gap through the covers for another four.
India recover to 45/1 in 10 overs, taking their lead past the 50-run mark.
