"Kohli's technique is sublime but his mindset, he gets into an innings and says 'no this is me I am going to get us over the line.'"

Speaking of Elvis, the curry house near my house has got a tribute act coming up. His name? Patelvis. I'm not even joking. Kohli away with a single. 

Michael Blighe: New anthem for England at sporting events? How about No Surprises by Radiohead. Good English band, just about fits expectations.

Ben Jones: A reggae number like Soul Limbo perhaps?

...Virat Kohli. The sort of reception Elvis must have enjoyed. Crowd already chanting his name.

"That is why you love Badree in the team. He is a smart bowler, tight lines, it is a massive wicket."

Shikha Roy: First hurdle is to keep the wickets intact for the 1st 6 overs which has been a problem for Team India!

Jay: It's Rohit Sharma's home ground in IPL and it's showing.

I think Rohit only had 45 runs in the tournament before today. This is also India's first opening stand of 50. The Windies drop the field at the end of the powerplay, hoping for some respite. Virat Kolhi isn't even in yet. Left-armer Benn back on, the crowd roaring even when India take a well-run two. Partisan an understatement.

"The Powerplay is with India. The West Indies started good but the last three overs we have seen some electric batting."

Michael Trytek: A new anthem for the England cricket team? Ghost Town by the Specials would make for a great live sing-along.

GS Webster: How about Come on Eileen by Dexy's Midnight Runners? That will get the crowd fired up.

"It has been a gradual rise from India here. They didn’t set off like a train but my goodness they are ending the Powerplay like one."

Remember, India only had six after two overs. Now, India are taking advantage of an absolutely belting deck. It's like they've dropped a slab of the A500 on to the Indian coast. Short from Russell, pulled for four. 20 from the over. 49 from the last four.

"This crowd has gone into a state of frenzy. It is an incredible atmosphere here."

The free hit disappears! That's almost in the commentary box! Rohit is ticking.

"Amazing shot. How they do it goodness only knows. Incredible batsmanship from Rohit Sharma."

That's a biggie! Too high from Andre Russell, called no-ball, and hooked by Rohit. That's gone miles, maybe even over Marine Drive and into the sea. Free hit...

Badree switches ends, unlucky to see the frustrated Rahane thick edge away from the man at short third man and down for four. In the posh seats, any number of bigwigs sit, all suited and booted. It's like an Indian episode of Downton. The highlights are in, by the way, behind the tab at the top of the page to see them all.

"Beautiful timing from Rohit Sharma. It is starting to come to the Indian opener."

Sam, I do think we've erred into a parliamentary matter there. However, I'm open to suggestions for what England's anthem could be. Please be more original than Jerusalem. In fact, if you suggest Jerusalem, I might ban you from reading. Rohit stands up and biffs through the covers, before following up with a swept four.
