    There was a little bit of grip for Ekta Bisht. It's a well-bowled delivery.

    Knight b Bisht 18

    A great start for India after drinks! A rare low score for England's captain Heather Knight but it was a lovely piece of bowling from the left-arm spin of Ekta Bisht.

    She just finds a bit of drift and beats Heather Knight who was coming down the track.

    But the batting power continues to come for England as Nat Sciver is in at four.

    It's difficult to underestimate how good that is from Amy Jones. Standing up to the stumps to Katherine Brunt is no mean feat - she's taken some sterling takes down the leg side - and to have reactions that quick, and that awareness to whip the bails off, is astonishing.

  4. While they take a break, let's just take a look at the outstanding piece of wicketkeeping that we saw from Amy Jones at the end of India's innings.

    There's no real context for it here, but I didn't have time to post it at lunch and it's really, really good.

    I had a sense of frustration watching India bat, and I'm getting it again watching them bowl. It is just too easy for England.

    India need to try and find a way to get some dots, and it is hard with set batters, but they just need to try and squeeze and put some pressure on them.

    Heather Knight brings out a very well hit reverse sweep but finds the fielder.

    We take a drink and the captain calls for someone to come and take her jumper - I called it.

    This is Tammy Beaumont's 52nd consecutive ODI appearance for England.

    Charlotte Edwards holds the record with 57.

  8. Eng 80-1

    Beaumont 43, Knight 17

    The difference in intent between the two sides' batting has been very, very stark. Even in defence, England are positive and we've seen some innovation too with some sweeps and paddles.

    They've just accumulated ones and twos and punished the bad ball with ease - that makes it sound very easy but it's only because Knight and Beaumont have made it look that way.

  9. Henry Moeran

    I've worked out that Mithali Raj walks in six steps every time that Jhulan Goswami bowls.

    If you times that by the 9,000 deliveries that Goswami has bowled, you get about 54,000 steps.

    Approximately 10,000 steps is 8km so in that time she's walked about 44km, which is about the same as a marathon.

  10. 74-1

    A much calmer over from Deepti Sharma concedes just two, but England are so far ahead of the run rate it won't matter at all.

  11. Just the one wicket to fall so far, that of Lauren Winfield-Hill.

  12. Eng 72-1

    Ekta Bisht tidies up the over nicely.

    Is there anything India can do to try and wrestle some momentum back? It's hard to see that happening at the moment.

  13. Eng 72-1

    Close! Tammy Beaumont uses her feet yet again to Ekta Bisht and hits it just over mid off and it goes for four. It was hit very, very hard.

  14. Speaking of Tammy Beaumont's form, here are a couple of the boundaries she's hit already.

  15. Eng 68-1

    Beaumont 35, Knight 13

    Spin at both ends now as Deepti Sharma comes on.

    Tammy Beaumont looks in lovely form as she comes down the track and hits a perfectly timed drive past mid on for four.

    A couple of easy singles follow and India really need to put a bit more pressure on England here.

  16. How's stat?!

    Phil Long

    India were 27-2 after their 10-over powerplay, England were 61-1.

  17. Alex Hartley

    That would make more sense.

    It might have just been headphone wearing for four days straight.

  19. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    I think the citrus wipe that we use to clean the headphones gave me earache last week. I've never had it commentating before but I did last week.

  20. Eng 61-1

    A better finish to the over as Beaumont takes an easy single off the last ball to keep the strike.
