114.6 Ashwin to Prior, OUT, bowled'im. Timber. Well bowled Ashwin. An over full of flighted deliveries, bringing the batsman forward all the time. That's the best chance you have on this pitch. Tossed up on of middle and off, Prior plays for the turn, the ball doesn't turn, and knocks back the off stump. Ashwin is pumped
MJ Prior b Ashwin 57 (142b 6x4 0x6) SR: 40.14
139.1 Chawla to Root, OUT, return chance and gone, Chawla takes the catch off his own bowling and Root has to depart! It's been a fantastic debut knock but another attempt to lift the tempo stops him a little way short of what would have been a marvellous hundred. He came down the wicket to a looping delivery outside off, tried to close the face and work the ball through midwicket but got a leading edge back to the bowler
JE Root c & b Chawla 73 (229b 4x4 0x6) SR: 31.87
143.4 Chawla to Swann, OUT, got him this time, trapped in front by one that went straight on! Actually, this didn't look as out as the one Tucker declined, perhaps he felt guilty, but Swann tried to reverse-dab through the off side, ended up missing a legbreak that didn't turn much, hit on the pad in front of middle and leg to end an important knock
GP Swann lbw b Chawla 56 (91b 6x4 2x6) SR: 61.53
0.3 Anderson to Sehwag, OUT, bit of inswing and knocks out middle stump!Absolutely perfect length ball that Sehwag played inside and his middle pole goes flying. What a start for England. Sehwag didn't move his feet and misread the line, got done on the outside edge by an inswinger. Anderson right on the money third ball
V Sehwag b Anderson 0 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
22.3 Swann to Pujara, OUT, propped via bat and pad to short leg, what a catch, gone! Bell, in at short leg instead of Root, plunged to his right, like a man desparately attempting to grasp a falling glass, and scooped the ball from above the grass one-handed, immediately throwing it high into the air in celebration. Uh oh, though it turns out the ball smacked into Pujara's forearm, rather than glove
CA Pujara c Bell b Swann 26 (72b 3x4 0x6) SR: 36.11
27.5 Anderson to Tendulkar, OUT, straight delivery, this keeps very low andbowled him! Tendulkar is castled and now Anderson has dismissed him the most times in Test matches - 9. There was a bit of drift into the batsman again but the lack of bounce was the primary factor in that delivery slipping past the defensive prod from the crease
SR Tendulkar b Anderson 2 (13b 0x4 0x6) SR: 15.38
31.4 Anderson to Gambhir, OUT, sliding across the left-hander again, now driven at, edged and gone and India are suddenly in real trouble
G Gambhir c †Prior b Anderson 37 (93b 4x4 0x6) SR: 39.78
