1.5
Jasprit Bumrah to Jos Buttler, FOUR! Slightly streaky and slightly skillful as well from Jos Buttler. A tad fuller in length and around off stump, Buttler gets pegged back but does well to just open the bat face at the last minute to get it past the keeper and towards deep third for four runs.

Arshdeep Singh to Jos Buttler, FOUR! JUST OVER! Pitched up outside the line of off stump, Jos Buttler dances down the track and stays leg side of the ball before swatting it away over a leaping Hardik Pandya at mid off for a boundary.

2.2
Arshdeep Singh to Jos Buttler, FOUR! That's too straight from Arshdeep Singh and easy pickings for Jos Buttler there. Too short and at the hips, Buttler just tickles it down to fine leg and picks up back-to-back boundaries.

2.5
Arshdeep Singh to Jos Buttler, FOUR! Belted through the off side! A third slower ball on the trot but this is just too short and wide, Jos Buttler gets on top of the bounce and slaps the ball down in front of Ravindra Jadeja at cover for a third boundary in the over.

3.1
Axar Patel to Jos Buttler, OUT! CAUGHT! What an introduction into the attack for Axar Patel and he's got the big fish. Axar just strides in from around the stumps and slides one in fuller around off with that high-arm action. Jos Buttler tries to put him under pressure right away by bringing out the reverse sweep but miscues the ball right off the cue end of the bat. The ball lobs up just behind the keeper and Rishabh Pant takes a dolly of a catch.

4.4
Jasprit Bumrah to Phil Salt, OUT! TIMBER! A master-craftsman at work! Jasprit Bumrah comes in from a bit wider on the crease now and bowls this one at 125.8 kph, just a smidge full and getting it to angle back in a mile. The ball pitches on off, Phil Salt clears the front leg to slog it over mid-wicket but ends up playing all over the ball. The ball crashes into the stumps and England have now lost both openers inside the first five overs.

5.1
Axar Patel to Jonny Bairstow, OUT! CASLTED! Axar Patel strikes again! Jonny Bairstow is flummoxed as he stands there looking back at the furniture disturbed behind him. Axar darts in an arm ball with a high-arm action from around the wicket, on a length and on the off pole, Jonny Bairstow stays leg side of the ball and pushes it away from his body. He plays for the non-existent turn as the ball keeps coming in with the angle and stays low as well as it sneaks past the angled bat to crash into the off stump.

6.6
Kuldeep Yadav to Harry Brook, FOUR! Excellently played! Kuldeep tosses it up but drags the length back, on off, Harry Brook reaches out in front and rolls his wrists on the ball. Nails the sweep to the right of deep mid-wicket for a boundary.

7.1
Axar Patel to Moeen Ali, OUT! STUMPED! Quick work by Rishabh Pant! England slip further. Not a wicket-taking delivery by Axar as this is too straight, on a nagging length, on the pads, Moeen Ali looks to tickle it fine off his pads but fails to get any bat on it. The ball thuds his thigh pad and rolls behind towards the keeper. Moeen Ali is unaware of where the ball has gone and wanders out for the run. The keeper, Rishabh Pant is alert as he collects it off the turf and whips the bails off in a jiffy. The third umpire is called into action and the replays confirm that even though Moeen turns around and tries to make the ground with his bat, he is short of his crease.

8.1
Kuldeep Yadav to Sam Curran, OUT! LBW! A huge appeal and the finger is raised! Sam Curran does opt for the review but that looked pretty straight at first glance. This is the flatter googly from Kuldeep Yadav that turns in sharply from around off and middle stump. Sam Curran gets pegged back and ends up playing all around it and gets hit in front of the stumps. Nothing on UltraEdge and Ball Tracking comes up with three reds. England have now lost half their side for under 50 runs and India are running through this batting order.

9.2
Ravindra Jadeja to Harry Brook, FOUR! Top shot! Jadeja serves it fractionally short, outside off, Harry Brook rocks on the back foot in a flash and slaps it past extra cover and beats deep cover to his right for a boundary.

10.3
Kuldeep Yadav to Harry Brook, FOUR! That is skillful from Harry Brook. Floated up full and around off stump, Brook brings out the reverse sweep and nails it past first slip and into the third man fence for a much-needed boundary.
W
10.4
Kuldeep Yadav to Harry Brook, OUT! TIMBER! That is the mark of a great bowler and that subtle change in line has done the trick for Kuldeep Yadav and he is rightly delighted. This time Harry Brook pre-meditates the reverse sweep and Kuldeep is aware of it. Kuldeep fires it in quicker at 88 kph and full at the middle stump. Brook cannot adjust and misses the ball as the ball crashes into the stumps and the one man that looked solid for England has to now depart.

12.2
Kuldeep Yadav to Chris Jordan, OUT! LBW! Kuldeep Yadav brings out the big conventional leg break that turns back into the right-hander, bowling it quicker through the air and on a nagging length around off stump. The ball turns back in a long way, Chris Jordan looks to work it off the back foot but plays over it as well and gets rapped on the pads. There is another huge appeal for LBW and the finger is raised once more. Chris Jordan has to take the chance with the review and does go upstairs. A clear gap between the bat and the ball on UltraEdge and it is umpire's call on Ball Tracking with the ball clipping the leg stump. 200 T20 wickets for Kuldeep and India just three wickets away now from victory.

Axar Patel to Jofra Archer, SIX! Clean strike from Jofra Archer! Full and straight in the slot, Archer takes the front leg out and swings through the line, hammering it over the bowler's head for a biggie.

14.5
Axar Patel to Jofra Archer, OUT! RUN OUT! Oh, dear! Jofra Archer has left Liam Livingstone stranded and that is the last nail in the English coffin for sure. Axar Patel bowls this one flatter and on a good length, angling it into the batter. Archer goes hard at it but gets an inside edge down to short fine leg and Livingstone calls him for a single. Archer says no and turns away whilst Livingstone is more than halfway down the pitch. Kuldeep Yadav picks up the ball and throws it back to the bowler who whips off the bails and Livingstone isn't even in the picture.

15.2
Hardik Pandya to Adil Rashid, OUT! RUN OUT! Absolutely brilliant by Suryakumar Yadav! India now a wicket away from making it to the final. Hardik lands it on a hard length, on middle, Adil Rashid hops to tuck it away but gets a leading edge that lobs wide of mid on. There is a bit of hesitation but the batters do decide to cross over. Suryakumar Yadav from a widish mid on position, runs across to his left and picks it up with his right hand. Facing towards mid off, SKY flicks the ball towards the bowling end and hits the stumps. Adil Rashid puts in the dive but he is caught way short of his crease.

Hardik Pandya to Jofra Archer, SIX! Straight as an arrow! Delivers it on a short of a length, Jofra Archer stands tall and with a still head, smokes it over the bowler's head for a biggie.

Hardik Pandya to Jofra Archer, FOUR! Up and over! Full and right in the slot, on off, Jofra Archer does not miss out as he lifts it up cleanly and gets it way over mid off for a boundary.

Jasprit Bumrah to Jofra Archer, OUT! TRAPPED IN FRONT! ALL OVER FOR ENGLAND! INDIA MARCH INTO THE FINAL! Jasprit Bumrah finishes things off as India win by 68 runs and have made it to their third Men's T20 World Cup final. Steams in from over the wicket and dishes it out on a fullish length, tailing in, on middle, Jofra Archer walks right across his stumps and tries to take it on the full to paddle it past short fine leg. He fails to lay any bat on it and the ball sneaks past the inside edge to thud him on the back toe right in front of the stumps. Up goes the finger but Archer reviews more in hope than anything else. There is no bat involved on UltraEdge and on Ball Tracking, it is umpire's call with the ball clipping the leg stump.
