2.2
.
Hits the deck hard, around middle, it lands and jags back into the right-hander. Buttler steps down the track and looks to swing it across on the leg side. Gets beaten on the inside edge and wears it around the midriff.
The English skipper, Jos Buttler walks in at number 3.
OUT! CAUGHT! Shami breaks through for India and England lose their first! Steams in from around the stumps and lands it fuller than a good length around off, Ben Duckett throws his arms at it and tries to loft it over the cover-point region but is a bit early into the shot. The bat twists at the point of contact and he ends up hitting it with the toe-end of the bat and the ball travels parallel to the ground towards cover where Abhishek Sharma bends low on his haunches and takes an easy catch. A golden duck for Ben Duckett and England are 23/1.
