Scorecard
Woakes takes a single off Prasidh into the covers to raise the 50-run stand for the eighth wicket from just 36 balls.
India seem to have given up on the short ball strategy as the two England all-rounders went on the attack.
Prasidh bowling length to Carse, who keeps out the last three balls.
Woakes gets a single to mid-on off Siraj before Carse walks across a long way and attempts the scoop but misses and that was not far from the off-stump.
Carse backs away a long way as Sirah follows him with the short ball but the right-hander is somehow able to swat it straight down the ground through the vacant mid-on region for a four as the lead goes under 20.
He follows it up with a quick bouncer which Carse ducks under.
Siraj gets revenge as he cleans up with a full delivery which crashes into the off-stump. Carse made a lot of room but missed the full delivery as Siraj finally had something to celebrate after going for runs.
Carse, who made 22 from 23 balls, put on 55 from 44 balls with Woakes to leave the Indians stunned.
The field is set for the short ball for new batter Josh Tongue, who is beaten for pace by a quick short ball.
