Prasidh to Root, leg byes, 1 run, a run-out chance and Nitish the sub at mid-on with a poor throw to Pant and the chance goes. Root swivels to pull the short delivery, misses, is hit on the arm, rolls to gully who shies and misses

Jadeja to Duckett, SIX, unreal! A switch-hit for six. And boy-o-boy is this a shot or what. This is sliding into leg-stump, fairly full, Duckett turns around and leathers the switch-hit

Jadeja to Duckett, FOUR, he's played this shot to great effect today! Tossed up full outside off, Duckett leans in and brings out the reverse-sweep, gets it fine and it beats the man at third man to his right

Thakur to Duckett, out Caught by (sub)Nitish Reddy!! Duckett departs for 149! They've finally held on to a catch offered by Duckett and it's Shardul with the breakthrough. Pitched up full and outside off, drive-ball and Duckett obliged, Shardul's pace meant he was through it just a fraction early and he couldn't keep the drive down.

Duckett c (sub)Nitish Reddy b Thakur 149(170) [4s-21 6s-1

Thakur to Brook, out Caught by Pant!! Two in two for Shardul! Barely had a part to play in this game so far and he's suddenly turning the game on its head here! Brook is strangled down leg for a golden duck. He wears a wry smile as he walks off. Good length delivery sliding down leg, Brook shuffled across and down the wicket, ended up reaching around and could only manage a fine tickle through to Pant who dived to his left to hold on to this. 99 in the first innings and 0 in this one for Brook.

Brook c Pant b Thakur 0(1)
