  1. 6 runs

    50 for Phil Salt

    Phil Salt is still seeing them well at least.

    He smashes Varun Chakravarthy into the stands to go to his fifty in 21 deliveries.

  2. wicket

    WICKET

    Livingstone c Rinku b Chakravarthy 9 (Eng 68-4)

    Another England batter has to trudge off. This series is going to end in a drubbing.

    Liam Livingstone tries to slog sweep but again there's more bounce than expected. The ball takes a top-edge and is safely snaffled in the deep.

  3. Eng 68-3

    Target 248

    Liam Livingstone gets another boundary away with a drilled drive that nearly breaks a finger or two but India will be happier at the end of the powerplay.

    So extraordinary is England's task that they are still behind the scoring rate.

  4. Eng 63-3

    Liam Livingstone slashes his first ball for four...

  5. Daniel Norcross
    Test Match Special commentator

    First Buttler, now Brook. Both will be furious with their dismissals, managing to pick out one of the two boundary riders.

  6. wicket

    WICKET

    Brook c Chakravarthy b Bishnoi 2 (Eng 59-3)

    Another falls as Harry Brook miscues a sweep to deep square leg.

    I'm not sure that's the shot. Abhishek pummeled England by playing straight.

    It has not been a good series for Brook.

  7. Leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi will bowl the final over of the powerplay.

    This one has to go the distance because the field will spread afterwards.

  8. Eng 59-2

    Target 248

    This helps.

    Phil Salt ends the over by bashing Chakravarthy for two fours.

    These two are team-mates in the IPL. Salt just hasn't survived long enough to face him previously in this series.

  9. Eng 51-2

    Only singles so far in this over after Varun Chakravarthy's early strike.

  10. And now Harry Brook has to face India's leggie right away.

    He's been dismissed by Chakravarthy three times in four matches in this series.

  11. wicket

    WICKET

    Buttler c Varma b Chakravarthy 7 (Eng 48-2)

    England's nemesis strikes straight away and it's the big one.

    Skipper Jos Buttler hits Varun Chakravarthy to long-off.

  12. India were 55-1 after four overs.

    Worm

  13. Eng 48-1

    Target 248

    And Phil Salt ends the over with another four as he beats the diving fielder at mid-off with a straight biff.

    I was about to say England are giving themselves a chance but they need 200 more runs in 96 balls.

  14. Eng 43-1

    Jos Buttler gets his first boundary now with an upper cut over the covers.

  15. 6 runs

    Eng 37-1

    That one's a full toss from Hardik Pandya. Phil Salt slaps it for six.

  16. Daniel Norcross
    Test Match Special commentator

    His first over was a quite brilliant one from Hardik. Variations throughout and Salt had no idea what was coming.

  17. Eng 31-1

    Salt 28, Buttler 2

    Phil Salt slams another through the covers - he length ball muscled with pure strength - but that's the only boundary in the over.

    Again, England need more.

  18. How's stat?!

    Kieran Parmley
    Cricviz analyst

    Jos Buttler at Wankhede Stadium in T20s.

    27 innings, 825 runs, 34 average, 145 strike-rate, one hundred, three fifties.

  19. Eng 23-1

    Jos Buttler's first delivery hits him on the body.

    There's a bit of zip there which England's bowlers did not extract.

  20. How's stat?!

    Kieran Parmley
    Cricviz analyst

    England were 89-3 after the Powerplay in their chase of 230 against South Africa at Wankhede Stadium in the 2016 T20 World Cup - they'll need something similar here you'd think...
