ENG: 61/2; Zak Crawley (27), Jasprit Bumrah (1/16), Mohammed Siraj (1/22)

Jasprit Bumrah comes to bowl his second spell. He had struck in the first over and got Rory Burns for a duck. He would look to add to England's woes before lunch break. Even Captain Kohli is cheering for the same - 'Lunch se pehle ek wicket, come on lads!!'

England is yet to put on a fifty runs stand for 2nd wicket in 2021 in Tests. Last time England’s 2nd wicket stand was by the same pair Zak Crawley and Dom Sibley who put on 61 runs vs Pakistan at Southampton in 2020

England captain goes off the mark in style. A hat-trick of boundaries against Siraj to open his account in the first Test. ENG: 58/2

FOUR! That's a poor delivery from Thakur. Fuller one, angled into the pads and Sibley flicks it down the leg side for a boundary.

WICKET! The action replay of the previous review that Crawley survived but this it's an edge. Inside edge before hitting the back thigh. Pant manages to convince his captain for a review and guess what, there's a spike on the snickometer. Crawley departs for 27, ENG: 42/2 after 21 overs.

India call for DRS to review a caught behind but the replay shows no bat involved. The impact is umpire's call, and missing the stumps, so no lBW as well. India lose a review.

Zak Crawley and Dom Sibley are absorbing the pressure created by the Indian seamers. Crawley is batting on 27 while Sibley is unbeaten on 12. ENG: 41/1 after 20 overs.

FOUR! Short ball from Shardul and Crawley pulls it magnificently through deep mid-wicket for a boundary. ENG: 41/1.

Shardul is bowling brilliantly as neither Crawly nor Sibley has been able to score against him. Zero runs conceded so far in his first couple of overs. ENG: 37/1

The duo of Siraj and Shardul is now putting some pressure on the England batters - Crawley and Sibley. While Shardul is bowling tight overs, Siraj is causing trouble with his pace. ENG: 37/1

Shardul Thakur starts brilliantly in England as he bowls a maiden over to begin his spell. ENG: 33/1

India deploy its fourth seamer into the attack. Shardul Thakur begins his first spell and bowls a stunner to Crawley to start with.

What a delivery from Shami - good length, moving past the edge and the stumps in a flash. Just missed the edge of Crawley's willow and the batsman wonders what was that! ENG: 31/1

The umpires have called for a drinks break. England have picked up the pace as Zak Crawley is batting superbly against a lethal Indian attack. He has scored 21 off 37. Sibley is a bit under fire as of now. He is batting on 8. ENG: 29/1.

FOUR | Terrific shot from Crawley. Overpitched delivery, outside off. Crawley leans through the line and drives it strongly through extra-cover.

Team Indian opt for a bowling change after 12 overs and Mohammed Siraj comes into the attack. He replaces Bumrah and ready to bowl his first over on English soil.

After Burns' dismissal, Crawley and Sibley are tackling the Indian pace attack as they have stitched a 20-plus stand for the second wicket. Shami and Bumrah are bowling really well. ENG: 24/1 after 12 overs.

After a horrible start, the hosts are trying to settle against a dangerous-looking Indian bowling attack. 10 overs have been bowled, England are 22 for 1. Dom Sibley is batting on 7 and is accompanied by Zak Crawley ( 15*) at the crease.

Flicked down the leg side for a boundary. Fuller one from Shami on the leg stump and Dom Sibley glances it away beautifully. ENG: 16/1

Beautiful cover drive from Zak Crawley. A fuller delivery from Jasprit Bumrah and Crawley punches it through covers for a boundary. Great shot this. ENG: 12/1

Three runs and a couple of singles in that over should settle some nerves for England. Crawley is standing outside his crease to negate the movement, and he clipped one off his pads to complete three runs. Bumrah had hands on his head because he knew that had Crawley missed putting bat to ball, he was a goner. England 7/1 after 5 overs.
