India vs England 1st T20 Highlights: All-round Pandya leads India to dominant 50-run win over England

Arshdeep Singh gets two as Parkinson hits it straight to Axar Patel and Rohit Sharma has won his 13th consecutive match as T20I captain. This match was expected to be a tough one for India, with some fears of a one-sided contest swirling around. It was one-sided allright, but in India's favour. England were never in this game at all and Jos Buttler's first match as full-time white ball captain has become a day to forget for him.  

Not too much celebrations from Arshdeep. Topley is not much of a batter but it's a first wicket nonetheless in international cricket. England have been shredded to pieces here. 

Topley c Karthik b Arshdeep Singh 9 (8) England 135/9 in 18 overs

Pandya bowls the 17th and he can't really get another but who is complaining? He becomes the first Indian to take four wickets and score a half century in the same match. Arshdeep Singh bowls the 18th, let's see if he can get his first international wicket. 

Harshal Patel gets one. Mills trying a ramp shot off the slowest of slow balls, it somehow hits the top of his bat and loops to the bowler. 

It is quite extraordinary that India are winning in this manner despite the number of catches they have dropped. The latest culprit is Deepak Hooda, who drops an absolute sitter at long-off. He then sends in a hard throw that hurts the bowler Chahal's hands. 

Scoring a half century was not enough for him, he has gone and dismantled this England lineup. Curran tries to hook him after moving a long way outside off, gets a top edge and the ball loops to Karthik. 

Curran c Karthik b Pandya 4 (4), England 106/7 in 13.5 overs

Suryakumar Yadav had dropped a catch that came straight at him off Moeen Ali two overs ago. He makes up for that by taking this one cleanly. Harry Brook is gone and that breaks the partnership. 

Brook c Suryakumar b Chahal 28 (23), England 94/5 after 12.1 overs

It has come in just 32 balls. India won't really mind this though, boundaries have been difficult for England to come by. 

Partnership between Moeen and Brook is now on 39 off 23. India have brought in Chahal and Axar and both spinners haven't really bothered the batters the way the pacers did before this. 

Short from Harshal and Brook top edges the pull shot. Karthik runs behind it, seemed to have got under it safely but ends up dropping it. England 53/4 after 8 overs. 

Harry Brook hits Hardik for a four and a six to get England something from the powerplay but this has been India's powerplay through and through. Brook is looking good, he has a bit of a golden boy reputation, having plundered runs in County cricket this season. But this is a real uphill task for England now. 

And Pandya has a third! Full delivery outside off, the ball swings away and Roy tries to smash it over the off side. Ends up edging it to third man. 

What a big wicket that is, second of the over for Pandya. The big-hitting Liam Livingstone nicks behind to Dinesh Karthik. Hardik Pandya's all-round brilliance on full display in this game. 

Pandya delivered with the bat, now he strikes with the ball. Full delivery, Malan is on his backfooted and cramped for space, ends up inside edging the ball onto his stumps. 

Malan b Pandya 21 (14), England 27/2 off 4.2 overs

Arshdeep Singh and Bhuvneshwar Kumar have kept England pinned in the first three overs. Roy is on just two runs off 11 balls while Malan is on six off six. 

What a beauty that is from Bhuvneshwar! Screaming inswinger that lands on off and snaps in sharply, Buttler is late to the flick and the ball shatters the leg stump. 

Buttler b Kumar 0 (1), England 1/1 after 0.5 overs

England's superstar opening pair of Jason Roy and Jos Buttler are in the middle, Bhuvneshwar Kumar opens the bowling. Guess who is in the commentary box for Sky Sports, Ravi Shastri and Eoin Morgan. 

That was a roller coaster of a last over, which perfectly concludes a roller coaster of an innings. After Karthik fell, Harshal Patel was run out after a rather chaotic attempt at a single. Arshdeep Singh then managed to run two. This is a good score but far lesser than what India looked capable of reaching. 

Sam Curran has taken an absolute blinder at point. Karthik has gone four, four and then falls. 

India 187/6 and DK is on strike. Tymal Mills has the ball in his hands, here we go!

All eyes firmly on Karthik now. Pandya finds deep point and his innings ends on 51 off 33. 

Pandya c Brook b Topley 51 (33), India 180/6 off 17.4 overs

His first T20I half century. What an innings this has been and he is now looking to tee off. Kept the scoring rate up for India throughout the middle overs. 

Parkinson sends it wide and Axar has to reach for it. The ball goes up in the air and lands into the hands of Jason Roy at covers. 

No boundaries for nine balls now. India are 157/4. It remains a good total but they would know better than to slow down now. This England batting lineup can chase down anything.
