Hardik Pandya to Mark Wood, 1 run, slashed through point by Mark Wood for a single

Hardik Pandya to Livingstone, out Caught by Dhruv Jurel!! Hardik Pandya removes the set batsman. This was pitched up by the pacer and Livingstone lofts it towards long-on. A regulation catch for Jurel in the deep and England have lost their 9th wicket. Livingstone walks back after playing an impressive knock, but don't think it's going to be enough. England might get bowled out before the 20th over. Livingstone c Dhruv Jurel b Hardik Pandya 43(24) [4s-1 6s-5]

Ravi Bishnoi to Livingstone, SIX, make that the third six of the over. On the shorter side, Livingstone rocks back in the crease and pulls it over deep square leg for anothe maximum. Ravi Bishnoi proving to be expensive tonight

Ravi Bishnoi to Livingstone, SIX, back-to-back sixes for Livingstone. This was a tossed up delivery by Ravi Bishnoi, Livingstone goes down on his knee and slogs it over deep mid-wicket for half-a-dozen more. 78m maximum and he's putting the bowler under pressure

Varun Chakravarthy to Jofra Archer, out Bowled!! That's a five-wicket haul for Varun Chakravarthy! A googly around off, breaches the batsman's defence and the off pole is out of here.

Varun Chakravarthy to Brydon Carse, out Caught by Tilak Varma!! Varun Chakravarthy weaving his magic in Rajkot. Fourth wicket for him. Nicely tossed up delivery on middle and leg, Brydon Carse goes aerial, flicks it towards deep square leg and Tilak stationed there takes a safe catch. England losing their way once again. Hasn't been a great effort by their middle and lower middle order batters in this series. Brydon Carse c Tilak Varma b Varun Chakravarthy 3(4)

Ravi Bishnoi to Livingstone, SIX, Livingstone breaks the shackles. This was tad full and Livingstone went down on his knee to play the slogsweep. Clears deep mid-wicket and adds six runs to the tally

Axar to Livingstone, SIX, that's high and handsome. Livingstone advances down the wicket and smokes the floated delivery over long-on for a towering six

Axar to Duckett, out Caught by Abhishek Sharma!! One brings two! India get two massive breakthroughs heading into the drinks break! Buttler looks a little forlorn in the dressing room. Both set batters are gone and the tide has shifted. Flatter delivery just outside off, Duckett stepped out and had a big slog across the line, had to reach out a bit as he dragged it into the leg-side and he didn't get it out of the middle. Simple catch for the man stationed at long-on. Duckett's gone after an entertaining and enterprising knock. Duckett c Abhishek Sharma b Axar 51(28) [4s-7 6s-2]

Axar to Duckett, 1 run, that's 50 for Duckett and it's come off just 26 balls! Length delivery on leg-stump, worked away to deep mid-wicket

Varun Chakravarthy to Buttler, out Caught by Samson!! Massive wicket for India! The in-form Buttler goes! Good length delivery just outside off, was just a gentle seam-up delivery, Buttler switched up his legs and went for a big reverse-sweep, it passed very close to his gloves before being grabbed by Samson and he went up straightaway. Bowler wasn't very convinced again but SKY decided to trust his keeper. UltraEdge takes its time to show up and when it finally does, it returns with a little spike when the ball is next to the bottom-edge! Buttler stood around looking just a little guilty, he probably knew he'd got a little touch on it. Samson burned a review earlier but got this one spot on. Buttler c Samson b Varun Chakravarthy 24(22) [4s-1 6s-1]

Varun Chakravarthy to Duckett, FOUR, even mishits are reaching the ropes! Full and just down leg, Duckett made a lot of room and sliced it back over the bowler's head, nothing clean about this shot but it was placed well, long-off can't get around

Axar to Buttler, byes, FOUR, that's gone through everyone! Tossed up full and just outside off, Buttler got into a bit of a tangle trying to reverse-sweep, it got too close to him and he couldn't lay bat on it, Samson doesn't get anything behind it either and it goes through

Ravi Bishnoi to Buttler, SIX, that's a biggie! Tossed up full on middle, Buttler knew exactly what was coming, he stepped out, reached the pitch and tonked it a mile over wide long-on with a clean strike

Ravi Bishnoi to Buttler, FOUR, now Buttler brings the reverse-sweep out as well! Full and just outside off, Buttler switches up his feet and executes this to perfection, it screams past backward point

Varun Chakravarthy to Buttler, 1 run, full on off-stump, hacked across the line, goes down to cow corner off the inner half

Washington Sundar to Duckett, no run, review lost! Appeal for leg before is turned down, flatter delivery angled into off-stump, Duckett went for the reverse-sweep again and missed, it just slid under his bat and gloves before hitting the outer part of the pad. Really poor review, impact was well outside off and it looks like the bowler knew it. He barely even appealed, India lose a review

Washington Sundar to Duckett, SIX, down the pitch and over the ropes! Duckett is on fire! Length delivery on off-stump, Duckett darted down the track, got nowhere near the pitch of it but went through with his shot and smacked it over mid-off, just about cleared the ropes too

Washington Sundar to Duckett, FOUR, he's hit five boundaries in a row now! Full and just outside off, Duckett brings out the reverse-sweep, no hesitation and he gets it up and over backward point

Washington Sundar to Duckett, FOUR, superb batting! Picks his spot again and executes the shot to perfection, flatter delivery on leg-stump, Duckett backs right away and slaps it into the gap at extra cover

Hardik Pandya to Duckett, FOUR, make that three in a row! Full on middle-leg, pace off but a slot ball, Duckett has got his eye in now and the change of pace doesn't trouble him, he clears his front-leg and mows it towards cow corner, just lands short of the ropes

Hardik Pandya to Duckett, FOUR, back to back boundaries! He's playing the field well here, just a fraction short on off-stump, Duckett made room and slapped it up and over cover, everyone was up in the ring in the off-side

Hardik Pandya to Duckett, FOUR, cracking shot! Banged in short on middle, this didn't quite rise, sat up nicely for Duckett who hung back before hammering it away through mid-wicket with a pull

Shami to Duckett, SIX, extraordinary! Duckett had to create something with Shami bowling such impeccable lines and lengths, good length delivery on middle, Duckett shuffled right across his stumps and used the pace to scoop it over the keeper's head and all the way for six

Hardik Pandya to Duckett, FOUR, another pace off delivery but this one is full and on the pads, Duckett waits for it and clips it away nicely towards deep backward square leg, lots of work for the man in the deep, he slides across and half-stops it but the ball has enough momentum on it to trickle into the ropes. First boundary for Duckett

Hardik Pandya to Philip Salt, out Caught by Abhishek Sharma!! Gone! Straight to the man! Third failure for Salt. Pandya dangled the carrot and Salt bit it right off. Pitched up full and wide outside off, Salt's weight was going the other way as he went hard at this, slapped it straight to Abhishek Sharma at cover who took a sharp catch just above his head. That went to him quickly but he made it look easy. Salt walks off shaking his head. It just hasn't worked for him in this series so far. Philip Salt c Abhishek Sharma b Hardik Pandya 5(7) [4s-1]

Shami to Philip Salt, FOUR, wow that outfield is lightning quick! Touch fuller and shaping away, Philip Salt looked to slap it through the off-side again, got it back past Shami right off the toe end and it raced down to the ropes
