Leg bye! On the pads, slower through the air and the length is pulled back a bit, Ben Duckett has a swing at it but fails to connect. A leg bye is taken as the ball rolls off the pads in front of short fine leg.

FOUR! Duckett takes Axar on straight away! Darted across from around the wicket, on a length, Ben Duckett gets down and swats it over mid-wicket for a boundary.
Will Arshdeep get his third? Nope. Spin in tandem now as Axar Patel is brought into the attack.

Takes pace off, full and straight, at the stumps, Ben Duckett shuffles across for the scoop but there is no pace on the ball and he is a bit early into the shot. Toe-ends it towards mid-wicket for a single.
Halt! The on-field umpire, Nitin Menon and Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav are having a detailed conversation. Not quite sure what that is about. By the looks of it, it was an animated chat between the two. But for now, SKY goes back to his fielding position and we are good to go...

FOUR! A hat-trick of boundaries for Ben Duckett! This is an excellent start for England. Banged in short by Singh but this is not high enough to trouble the batter, Ben Duckett takes the short ball on and pulls it to the right of deep fine leg for four more.

FOUR! In complete control this time! Fuller in length, at the stumps, at 136 kph, Ben Duckett brings his wrists into play and whips it over mid-wicket for yet another boundary.
