    My colleague Stephan has piped with a good suggestion of the Morkels v the McCullums. A good shout.

    There was the Hussey brothers too.

    We're checking this out for you. The Hollioakes v Waughs maybe?

    The Pandya brothers are watching these early proceedings from the bench, both looking as cool as can be. Krunal has a silver earing. Hardik has a pair of round sunglasses you'd see a hipster wearing.

    H: When is the last time there were two sets of brothers on opposing teams?

  4. Ind 1-0published at 1.1 over

    Big appeal first up from Curran!

    He's hit Rohit on the pad. It might have just pitched outside leg.

    Sam Curran will begin proceedings from the 'Hill End'. A nice, simple name for the end of a cricket ground...

  6. Ind 1-0published at 1 over

    Rohit 1, Dhawan 0

    Wood's first over is lively. He beats both Rohit and Dhawan - the former nabbing a single for the only run.

    Tymal Mills
    England T20 bowler

    It's good to see Mark Wood after an impressive T20 series, and that he's not hampered by that heel injury.

    The stands are empty once again as Wood runs to deliver the first ball. There is no roof over three quarters of those stands making them look like an 80s Football League ground.

    You wouldn't want to be sat there in the rain although I doubt they get much in these parts.

    England are looking good in their World Cup-winning pale blue. Ah the memories.

    Mark Wood will take the new ball. Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan are India's openers.

    The teams have emerged for the two anthems. The sun is peaking through between the clouds. Swing early on?

    Agreed.

    As ever I'd love to hear from you. Analysis on the cricket or whatever you fancy. Any exciting plans for this locked down Tuesday?

    England's fast bowling options look a little weaker with Jofra Archer injured.

    Ben Stokes is going to bat three in the absence of Joe Root.

    Due to the quirks of rotation and availability, this is Stokes' first 50-over international since he was breaking New Zealand hearts at Lord's on that glorious day in 2019.

  16. The teamspublished at 07:42 Greenwich Mean Time 23 March 2021

    India: Rohit, Dhawan, Kohli, Iyer, Rahul, H Pandya, K Pandya, Thakur, Bhuvneshwar, Kuldeep, Krishna.

    England: Roy, Bairstow, Stokes, Morgan, Buttler, Billings, Moeen, S Curran, T Curran, Rashid, Wood.

    India captain Virat Kohli: "Very happy (to bat first) – slightly different plans, the weather will drastically change in the second half. We wanted to put the opposition into the field first. It’s a nice wicket and a great opportunity for us to put some runs on the board."

  18. Postpublished at 07:39 Greenwich Mean Time 23 March 2021

    England captain Eoin Morgan, who jokes about a double-headed coin after calling correctly again: "It looks a good wicket with grass on it. We’re looking forward to it, it’s a different challenge. There’s a long-term view in this format so we’re giving guys an opportunity to stake their claim and grow the the squad. Sam Billings, Tom Curran and Moeen Ali are coming into the side today."

    India are without a few big names too but they look to have a strong side. Kohli, Rohit, Hardik Pandya, Dhawan and co are in.

    They have two debutants in all-rounder Krunal Pandya (Hardik's brother) and fast bowler Prasidh Krishna.

  20. Postpublished at 07:34 Greenwich Mean Time 23 March 2021

    Sam Billings and Moeen Ali are in for their first games of the white-ball tour.

    Both Curran brothers play too.
