  1. Eng 175-3published at 24 overs

    Kohli brings Bhuvneshwar back into the attack to try and make the breakthrough. Pace at both ends now. England see off a few singles.

    That's a bit of a negative outlook, Craig!

    There is a question of strategy though - do England look to continue their positive energy from the start of innings and try to dominate the attack? Or should they cool it down for a while, knowing they've got runs in hand?

    Craig: Can see England losing this now. They went off the boil before the first wicket just like in the last T20, and it's going to come back to bite them.

  4. Eng 171-3published at 23 overs

    Batsman crossed, so Morgan faces the remainder of the over, two off the last.

    Bairstow c Kuldeep b Thakar 94 (Eng 169-3)

    Ah.

    Thakur drags one down and Bairstow top edges, it's an easy catch down the throat of Kuldeep at mid-wicket. Remarkable innings from Bairstow, 94 off just 66 deliveries.

  7. Eng 169-2published at 22 overs

    England turn over the singles as Kuldeep bowls another over. They can afford to go a few overs without many boundaries, they're a fair way ahead of the rate. As long as they don't lose any wickets...

  8. Eng 165-2published at 21 overs

    MorganImage source, BCCI

    Shardul Thakur takes over from Krishna to maintain pace at this end. Morgan drives his fifth ball sublimely through the covers for four. That finger injury doesn't seem to be affecting him at the moment.

  9. Eng 157-2published at 20 overs

    Bairstow sweeps Kuldeep for four more. Is this England upping the pace again or can India keep an element of control?

  10. 6 runs

    Eng 151-2published at 19.2 overs

    A release for England. Kuldeep serves up a flat full toss and Morgan smashes it over the ropes at mid-wicket.

  11. Eng 145-2published at 19 overs

    Krishna continues - his sixth ball scuds way over Jonny Bairstow's head for a wide. Two wickets on debut - I'd be getting over-excited too...

    Shot of Jos Buttler looking very thoughtful, leaning against the England dug-out. Maybe he's got word of the whole nutmeg/no nutmeg debate.

  13. Eng 140-2published at 18 overs

    England run the singles off Kuldeep. Scoring rate has slowed somewhat - although England aren't worried yet...

    Morgan sees out the rest of the over - wicket-maiden for Krishna.

    Eng 137-2

    Is that two in two balls now for Krishna?! Morgan in at four, despite the finger injury in India's innings. He's edged to Kohli... no, the India skipper puts it down in the slips.

    There's some confusion as a quick-thinking Kohli then tries to run out a bemused Morgan, who eventually grounds his bat.

    WICKETpublished at 16.2 overs

    Stokes c Gill (sub) b Krishna 1 (Eng 137-2)

    Oh no! Failure for Stokes, who punches the ball to the sub Gill at extra cover. His spell at number three is brief. Two wickets in two overs for debutant Krishna.

  18. Eng 137-1published at 16 overs

    Just two singles off the first and last balls of Kuldeep Yadav's over. How long before England can get up to speed again?

    Maybe I could just dump all the lasagne ingredients in the kettle and hope for the best. I think in those circumstances whether there's nutmeg involved becomes largely irrelevant.

    Thanks Matt - afternoon folks.

    I'll say this on the cooking front, speaking as someone who has managed to spend his lockdown year in a house without a functioning kitchen, all this lasagne chat reeks of oven-owning privilege.

    If anyone has recipe recommendations that can be completed with a camping stove, a kettle, a toaster and a boxer-endorsed grill, I'm all ears.
