Series: India tour of England, 2018 Venue: Lord's, London Date & Time: Aug 09-Aug 13, 11:00 AM LOCAL

Cheteshwar Pujara 1(25)

8.3

Anderson to Pujara, out Pujara Run Out!! Kohli has run Pujara out. And it is raining heavily. Look at the players run off. It is pouring now. But what a waste of a wicket. Defended with soft hands, in front of point, Pujara set off, Kohli did too and then turned his back on the helpless Pujara, easy run out and that's a criminal waste of a wicket. Pujara just kept running, expecting the Indian skipper to respond. For some reason, Kohli didn't want to run across. Had they gone through, would've been a touch and go single, even may have made it. In the end, they both look at each other and a glum looking Shaz on the balcony isn't too pleased as well. Pujara run out (Ollie Pope) 1(25)

8.2

Anderson to Pujara, no run, fullish outside off, good leave as it lifted off a length, flies to Bairstow

8.1

Anderson to Pujara, no run, well outside off, Pujara lets it go

7.6

Broad to Kohli, no run, fullish outside off, left alone and the ball thuds into Bairstow's gloves

6.5

Anderson to Pujara, no run, short of length on off, Pujara defends to the vacant square leg area, wants a run but Kohli sends him back

6.4

Anderson to Pujara, no run, short outside off, Pujara does well to stand tall and fend it down. The ball rolls behind him

6.3

Anderson to Kohli, 1 run, he is off. Kohli defends in front of point. Looks at Pujara and off the go. Kohli is off the mark

5.5

Broad to Pujara, no run, fullish on off, Pujara defends solidly

5.4

Broad to Pujara, no run, the Englishmen thought that it was pad first. But it was clearly bat first. A thick inside edge onto the pad saves Pujara as he is a bit late to cover for the inward movement

5.3

Broad to Pujara, no run, pitched up outside off, left alone and then it swings late into Bairstow's gloves

5.3

Broad to Pujara, no ball, Broad oversteps, full on off, solidly defended

5.2

Broad to Pujara, no run, full on the pads, softly turned to mid-wicket

5.1

Broad to Pujara, no run, beaten. But that was too much movement. The seam scrambled as it hurtles towards the batsman, full and just outside off, Pujara played for the original line and was well beaten

4.6

Anderson to Rahul, FOUR, faint tickle but that will do for Rahul. Got across and Anderson attacked the pads, a bit too straight, allows Rahul to glance, he does so fine and gets his second boundary

4.4

Anderson to Pujara, no run, again the length is short, and the line outside off so Pujara is happy to leave

4.3

Anderson to Pujara, no run, short of length outside off, left alone

4.2

Anderson to Pujara, no run, what a ball. Pujara is turned into an 'S'. Very similar to Vijay's dismissal. Late, late movement, full around off, brought Pujara forward and then completely opened up India's No.3, no clue as the ball moved late to miss the edge. Had it been on target, we could well have seen a replay of the Vijay dismissal. Phew. What bowling

4.1

Anderson to Pujara, no run, hung his bat out at that. That's tentative. Feet stuck to the crease and the bat was away from the body, it moved away enough to miss the edge

3.6

Broad to Rahul, no run, short of length on off and middle, Rahul nudges to short mid and puts his bat up to say no to Pujara

2.5

Anderson to Pujara, no run, that's a briliant ball. Goes wide of the crease and angles it in, then it straightens after pitching, unplayable, nigh unplayable and Pujara did well not to edge that. That's dream Anderson

2.4

Anderson to Pujara, no run, bowls it outside off, left alone

2.3

Anderson to Pujara, no run, ooh! That is a good ball. Full and got it on off, moved late and hit the outer half of the bat, luckily for Pujara it rolls to cover. Anderson got that right on the money

2.2

Anderson to Pujara, no run, again. Similar to the last one, lovely curve on the outswinger, but it is too wide of off to make Pujara play

2.1

Anderson to Pujara, no run, wide of off, moves away, Pujara lets it go

1.6

Broad to Rahul, no run, beats the bat. Close to the edge. Made Rahul play at that one, in that fourth/fifth stump channel, Rahul pushed out and lucky not to have edged that. Broad got the ball to move away a smidgen after pitching
