The dew is definitely a factor for the remainder of this game. Eoin Morgan is drying the ball after each delivery.

England T20 bowler
The dew is definitely a factor for the remainder of this game. Eoin Morgan is drying the ball after each delivery.
Sundar Washington and Shardul Thakur are the two men out there. Archer goes full and Sundar somehow digs it out and over Jos Buttler's head for four.
Iyer c Malan b Archer 37 (Ind 174-7)
And another. Late wickets for England here as Iyer finds Malan at deep mid-wicket to give Archer his third wicket of the match.

That's what happens when you have a world-class domestic tournament every year.
I have no doubts we will see some young stars made in The Hundred this summer.
Pandya c Stokes b Wood 11 (Ind 170-6)
Yep, Stokes caught it clean and Hardik's innings comes to an end.
He was looking to swat Wood through the covers and Stokes, in the covers, flung himself to the left to take a spectacular one-handed catch. The TV umpires were checking if Stokes grounded it after the dive.
Ind 170-6
Wood to Hardik ... What a catch from Ben Stokes! But ... we go to the TV umpire again?! Soft signal is out (those famous four words).

The amount of talent in Indian cricket is remarkable, and because of the spotlight of the IPL every player that comes in is used to the pressure and hits the ground running.
Mark Wood goes back of a length, Hardik Pandya looks to hit it over the inner field and doesn't quite get hold of it, the ball just about clears Eoin Morgan and Ben Stokes who were both running back for the grab.
Wood then beats Pandya twice with some brilliant pace bowling. Dot balls so crucial here.

Stand and deliver. Another almost yorker length delivery from Jordan and Iyer smashes it over cover for a huge, powerful six.
Jordan looks baffled.

Kaustubh Joshi: Umpires call or soft signal had no meaning there. There was no way he could have seen it from there - the hands and fingers were all around the ball not under the ball. Pathetic decision.
The dew is causing Eoin Morgan and the England bowlers a bit of grief here, they're having to wipe the ball down after almost every delivery.
Length ball from Jordan, a foot or so outside off stump and Shreyas Iyer drills it back over the bowler's head.

Up and over. Jordan bangs it in short and on the hips of Hardik who dispatches it over fine leg.

Hardik Pandya - who is no stranger to some explosive batting - makes his way to the middle and is off the mark with a single.
Five from the over in total. Eighteen balls to go, what can India can finish with here? I'm saying it now, I think this game is going to the wire.

As much as England will be worried about a big total, the bigger picture of having a really tough run chase should benefit them in the long run.
Pant b Archer 30 (Ind 144-5)
England strike! Middle stump uprooted.
Full from Archer, a bit of swing and Pant's lack of foot movement is this time his downfall. Through the gate.
Stand. And. Deliver.
Jofra Archer with a poor delivery outside the off stump and Rishabh Pant punishes it with a thrilling drive back past the bowler.
