    There's a little bit of room outside off stump. Fielders at long-on or long-off won't make a difference. The ball is going miles.

    Eng 50-0published at 4.3 overs

    Well, that's one way to bring up England's fifty!

    Jason Roy plays out two dot balls from Siddarth, decides he likes what he sees and, with one huge swing of the bat, clobbers another maximum back down the ground.

    A change for India - right-armer Siddarth Kaul who, I'm delighted to tell you bowls in a headband, is on.

    They will run out of pyrotechnics if this continues.

    Going, going... gone!

    Jason Roy stands tall and sends Umesh Yadav's final delivery sailing into the stands, where a gentleman in the crowd drops it. What a shot that is.

  8. Eng 37-0published at 3.5 overs

    That'll definitely improve Virat Kohli's move - Hardik Pandya moves himself around at mid-off to cut off a full-blooded push from Jason Roy, and he misses the ball completely.

    The ball goes racing away for another four.

  9. Eng 33-0published at 3.1 overs

    Now Jason Roy gets into the attack!

    He runs at Umesh Yadav then, up on one leg, crashes the ball past the bowler and away to the boundary.

    He was prepared for the short ball and again went deep in the crease. Even when he doesn't middle it, it races to the boundary.

  11. Eng 29-0published at 3 overs

    Buttler 26, Roy 3

    Deepak Chahar begins with two dot balls, before Jos Buttler decides he's had enough of that. He rocks back and hoists the ball over mid-on's head for yet another four.

    Buttler and Jason Roy work a couple of singles to round off the over.

    Batting first, teams have only won 22 out of 63 Twenty20 matches in Bristol.

    Run rate 11.50

    Ooft. This time Umesh Yadav drops short, and Jos Buttler swivels and pulls him away for his fifth boundary of the innings.

    A scampered single ensures Buttler keeps the strike for the next over. He's made 21 from just eight deliveries.

    Buttler makes use of the depth of the crease, he gets deep so it means he can get under full deliveries.

  15. Eng 18-0published at 1.4 overs

    Umesh Yadav will share the new ball, and he entices Jason Roy into a loose swing and a miss first up.

    A single brings Jos Buttler on strike, and a full delivery is promptly tonked back over Yadav's head for four!

    It's a high-pressure game where you learn a lot about players. And, as a player, you want to know if you can perform when the heat is on.

  17. Eng 13-0published at 1 over

    Right, after a bit of faffing about with the box of balls, we're ready to start play again.

    And it's business as usual as a thick inside edge from Jos Buttler absolutely flies through square leg and away for four. It's been an expensive start for India...

  18. Postpublished at 14:05 British Summer Time 8 July 2018

    It's taken Jos Buttler two deliveries to knock the ball out of shape.

    The umpires aren't happy. On comes a new ball.

    That was a powerful shot. He moved down the pitch like he as playing a spinner.

  20. Eng 9-0published at 0.4 overs

    Four! Down the pitch comes Jos Buttler, and a firm drive sends the ball flying through mid-off and away for a boundary.

    And again! This time Buttler stays in his crease and whips Chahar up and over the fielders for a one bounce four.
