Morgan dropped on 4published at 13.1 overs
Eng 134-2
Oh!
Eoin Morgan lashes Hardik Pandya up into the air. It doesn't clear the circle and Chahal, running backwards, lets the ball burst through his hands. That's a bad drop. To make things worse, he takes a heavy fall, hitting his head hard on the turf.
The physio is taking him straight off for treatment.

Hales 24, Morgan 4
Alex Hales chases after a fuller delivery from Chahal that he somehow spoons away for four, before clobbering the final ball of the over down the ground.
India might have made a mess of their selection today. Amongst all the carnage, spinner Chahal has bowled four overs that have cost 30 runs. That's positively economical compared to the rest of the bowlers.

Here's how Jos Buttler fell earlier in the innings.
Eng 120-2published at 12 overs
Run rate 10.00
Hardik Pandya's first over went for 22 runs. This one costs just two.
However, Alex Hales ends the over by top-edging a pull on to his helmet. He says he's OK but the physio comes on for a quick check.

This is a very nice, very tidy over from Yuzvendra Chahal.
Oh. It was. Alex Hales gets on one knee, gives himself some room and slog-sweeps the final ball of the over for yet another six.

James Anderson
England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialThat's right off the toe of the bat, but these boundaries are minute.
Eng 111-2published at 9.5 overs
Low full toss, and guess what Alex Hales has done with it?
Wallop. In fact, Hales hasn't even got hold of that properly, and it's still gone flying into the crowd.
Eng 105-2published at 9.4 overs
England captain Eoin Morgan is in, and promptly off the mark from his first delivery.
Ooh, hello. We're into free hit territory as Chahar sends down one too many short balls.

England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialIt's a change of pace and it has bounced a bit. The third man was in the circle, so it would have been four had it gone past the fielder. Roy is furious. He knew there was a big score on today.

Roy c Dhoni b Chahar 67 (Eng 103-2)
Gone!
Oh, Jason Roy is furious with himself. He leans back, trying to cut a slower ball from Deepak Chahar, and instead gets the slightest of edges that flies through to MS Dhoni. The India keeper takes a smart catch and the umpire raises his finger. Roy has a swipe at the turf for good measure on his way off the field.
Eng 103-1published at 9.1 overs
Virat Kohli shuffles his pack once again, and brings Deepak Chahar back into the attack.
And the result is pretty much the same. In the slot, walloped high over mid-wicket for six. That'll be England's 100 up, too.

Francis Edwards: The size of these boundaries are ridiculous. The lack of swing or any real movement has made this game dull. This isn’t cricket, it’s just batting. I’d love to see some of these English big hitters attempt to play when conditions are not heavily in favour!

Yuzvendra Chahal continues and Jason Roy milks him for a single. The wrong 'un comes Alex Hales' way but the England batsman reads it and pushes it safely away.
Just three runs from the over.
