00:00that was a very good start there's a bit of movement there off the scene pitches
00:08here this year at Old Trafford have been very flat all four championship that has not been
00:15the case for some years as you can see again another edge a genuine edge that
00:19goes straight down land short of slip burst through that cordon first runs for
00:24India fall from the the second time in three deliveries guys while just going
00:33hard at one luckily for him not carrying straight to the field they're just
00:37falling short of the second slip bottom of the back but gets it away in front of
00:46square everything happening almost in slow motion
00:53I'm pretty cold day by Indian standard they're all getting one shot the good
01:00thing is he's pulled it well in front of square
01:10sure and pulled with real conviction by a Shazvi Jaiswal
01:20have to say this is the most confident bang in front of square and a lovely
01:27position from Yashasvi Jaiswal
01:31button-off to a nice start so far
01:42oh now it's gone in between duck it at gully and the cover points
01:50it's a side edge
01:53but right between the gap and with that shot he brings up thousand runs in
02:01England
02:06now he's been waiting for one slightly fuller England have kept him quiet he
02:11has left the ball well but he finds the boundary this is a very good shot and
02:20simply because he and it's controlled look at the angle of the back it's into the
02:27ground he lets it come to him normally loves throwing his hands at it
02:33smashed lovely back up nailed to the boundary
02:41oh TD pounce on that on his ability to then rock back get across and put that
02:51away
02:54example of using the depth of the crease as well no half measures when he saw that
03:00his eyes lit up
03:03cuts not a million miles away from Oli Pope at point it has slowed dramatically but
03:14will make it away for four to end previous over was carved away for four
03:20from KL rule and it wasn't a million miles away from Oli Pope not a chance on this
03:25occasion he couldn't stop it but he's pulled off some blinders in this series
03:29carved away and that's absolutely flown down to third man brings up the 50 for India 52
03:39without really struggled to release the shackles he saw his minute minute he saw
03:45that that fraction wide absolutely cut superbly well almost four stokes into
03:57bowling into a different area and Jace well jumps all over it 63 for none
04:01oh he tries to sway out of the way and in doing so was then trying to get his hands out of the way
04:19to an awkward position they saw it let's have a look oh I think it's a really sharp delivery from
04:31Joffre Archer well angled well a knit back I'm gonna say maybe he did mean that
04:39bit of a and a bit of B cuts away goes up and under he certainly meant that one is that flyers all the way
04:56yeah and we've seen definitely over leg stump is where choice or struggles there
05:06I'll take the single India and that will be the completion of the first session to play here in
05:16the fourth test at Manchester a reminder India the 14th time in international cricket have lost the toss
05:24they were successful in a hall getting a start for India and then they will look to bat and bat big and
05:29they've got the perfect platform to do that with the one one of the three changes for in the works
05:35probably pick of the bowlers have certainly got the most amount of movement from that fuller length
05:39bit of wobble steam bit of net plays and misses the workload good afternoon Ricky Ponting what did you
05:50make it that first session yeah good afternoon ask it afternoon everyone I think first session to India
05:5579 for none talking about visualizing and getting your and the extra delivery goes to the boundary for
06:1384 84 for none
06:18another good bouncer
06:27well he missed out on one cut he wasn't going to miss out on that short wide and put away we have seen
06:37if you get it high enough and wide enough it does go particularly hard at that cut shot on that
06:42occasion there he did try and keep that one down but we saw before the break there was one that went
06:47for six over third man might look like a negative tack
06:51edged and gone
06:55he's deserved that Chris Wokes
06:59Crawley taking the catch England get the first
07:03foot squared up flew to Crawley
07:06third slip
07:06nice catching height
07:09safe hands
07:11this plays a little late dab
07:17there may be a deep point but there is no third man
07:20nice while moves to 49
07:23very sensibly played understood that he had have gone really hard at that he probably only gets us to what's been working
07:38tight single
07:43tight single
07:43Sudarshan makes it and Jaiswal will just check with Sudarshan that he's home before he celebrates
07:50a well-made 50
07:53it's been not always straightforward for him this morning he played a missed
07:57well again here today well truly in and still has the awareness and confidence to be able to say well I can I can still tweak things a little bit just to make sure that I I stay on top of my game
08:10drive straight to this time so they'll be runs to be had
08:17give us a look at Liam Dawson sprinting abilities down to long off he can't cut that one off Jaiswal
08:25as well at the other end because he had a chat to him just before this ball
08:30sometimes your batting partner can just keep you nice and calm and focused and when you are you can hit shots like this
08:38two players that wouldn't have batted
08:40and this to be had here it's beaten mid on it was low full toss from Bryden Kast it's been that kind of a day for him so far he hasn't
08:50perhaps been at his best best rhythm
08:53that'll please him given that we focused a little bit on
09:04how he got nicely there not this along the ground moves into double figures
09:10remember him saying he felt like he's in a good position for that wicket it
09:19at Leeds much better position there yeah maybe slightly
09:22really proud of himself
09:36the first over brought some reps in hit the right area and the second one he's got the wicket as well
09:41simple catch to Harry Brook
09:43Jaiswal generally a very good player of spin
09:46laying down the wrong line didn't turn as much as he expected the outside edge carrying
09:51pretty straightforward to Harry Brook Liam Dawson
09:54if there's anyone in this ground who deserves it it definitely is him the spin that you get to see
10:00bit like that that was wonderful and look at the flick of the wrists as well that wasn't a check drive
10:07that was an old school break the wrists and he
10:11the very special shot to understand how you need to use your top hand and bottom hand in trying to get that
10:17control while playing the shot really nicely done
10:20the more he plays international cricket
10:23the more he plays international cricket
10:25oh use his feet just clear as the captain Stokes diving away
10:30Gil smiles but it would have been worried for a moment
10:36there's taken a few catches in that style in the past
10:38just out of reach for him and because he's firing it in he's not quite got the elevation
10:46he was looking for probably got too close to the pitch of the ball
10:48still enough on it to clear Ben Stokes
10:55Dawson shouldn't mind that
10:59oh
11:01who's down definite bats on that
11:07and this flu they'll be disappointed this is uh pretty much a regulation catch
11:17made a mess of it
11:18match cricket
11:20oh close Ben Stokes up
11:23huge appeal for England
11:28England celebrate
11:30Rod Tucker's are gonna age to give that out
11:32waiting on Gil's decision
11:39is he gonna send it upstairs
11:41i think he has
11:44on field decision is
11:45you are now pitching outside door
11:47impact
11:51the whole traffic crowd celebrate it's a big wicket
11:55shugman gill
11:56just midst up misjudgment
11:58from the Indian captain
11:59Dokes makes things happen
12:03with the ball
12:04just angles back towards the stumps
12:06i think gill was thinking it was the away swinger
12:10rod tucker took an age to give it
12:14but a good decision
12:17yes more often than not the empires will rule in favor of the bowler especially when you offer no stroke
12:24only question as far as uh rod tucker was concerned he would have checked the height
12:29took his time nothing wrong in that
12:34oh cool away gonna go for four
12:38stokes claps him
12:41i'm happy with that picks up length quick
12:44inside sudashan you've seen that in white ball cricket
12:47just as he ran past ben stalks was there clapping
13:01good intent
13:01okay that'll be the tea break
13:11brilliant spell from ben stokes picking up the crucial wicket of shugman gill
13:16so 71 runs in that session of play but the important thing three wickets for england
13:24pretty crucial wickets kail rahul first to go wokes back of a length maybe we're all tried to
13:29hit a little bit straight simple catch to that crawley just well got done by
13:36the woke's been impressive all day got the ball to move off this surface a little bit of seam
13:41casters maybe lacked a bit of rhythm but was better after last to kick things off
13:45and not unpredictable start ricky good afternoon
13:52it is rather than the 90s generally here that's hooked high
13:57but there's only one man out there's brighton cass
14:00who can't get around i'm not sure he picked it up actually mentioned that it's gotten a little dark
14:06yeah i don't think he would have got there anyway it's a long way away from him the line of it's
14:09perfect oh straight over top of zach crawley said it's quite a strange field that they've got set
14:14knowing that the batsman has looked to take on the short ball
14:18you would think that they might have two all the way back on the fence and then maybe
14:22the man they've got a forward square leg can come in and be a little bit closer for the one that is
14:31fantastic that's a stylish shot from sadarsan who plays that shot with one knee raised in the air
14:39he's got two men out on the hook but you need to get it higher than that needs to be up above
14:45shoulder height get the batsman out of control of the shot as you can see there he's completely in
14:51control knows where his gap is oh that's an unbelievable shot down on one knee and virtually
15:01swept up for archer as if he's a spinner
15:03let's have a look at liam dawson here what takes a shot it is a front foot sweep
15:12see if we can see dawson here at the bottom of your screen
15:17we haven't got him there but he did not move he did not see that at all
15:21there's a long way across there sighted asian as he manages to find the boundary off the pads
15:51and he sticks the switch there and he's flicked it big time
15:57that goes all the way a little bit more traditional in the sense it was straight
16:01and aerial he he hasn't done anything audacious for a while so there must be something coming
16:09and you sort of had a gut feeling blocked half a dozen maybe a dozen so something big had to come
16:15and often when he does flick that switch as you described it often comes off perfectly as it has done here
16:29yeah he does stokes has not seen that at all
16:32now i don't think even had he seen it straight off the back like it was straight at him it wasn't
16:38the pant came down the crease looking to hit that straight gap again but notice the advertisement
16:44behind ben stokes red all the way around the ground it's something that players struggle with
16:49sometimes here at old trafford you got the red this neck of the woods wasn't it
16:53it metatarsal that'll be a sore one there's no doubt about that
17:07well they'll get a good reception to be taken off the field
17:12but that is a major concern take wickets out of nowhere
17:15well that was hit with real authority played a couple of those off dawson and he has smashed that
17:26through to the extra cover fence his maiden test match 50 52 not out from 134
17:33it's been very patient by this time the clarity and the style of plays looking for
17:41the sixth four took him to that first personal milestone a little one first 50 but a significant
17:52one given he played in that first test a couple of failures on debut
17:59edged him in the gap he hasn't got a third slip he's not over attacking
18:05as this found the gap and run away to the boundary
18:08sort of said it all to how he feels today has gone so far
18:13catches the ice that outside edge jadeja loses control
18:21up this shot punched up the back foot before
18:28yeah quality so much so far in this innings but believe me there's a lot of strokes
18:32and stroke play inside this man i don't think india did him any favors either by playing him in the
18:39first game and then leaving him out comes back in that creates more pressure on these young players
18:45he was their best option at number three as they obviously thought he was this year
18:49that's good strike a little more flight from root
18:58and jadeja quick it's an easy swing of the bat back over the bowler's head
19:02i like that intent
19:09that's in the air
19:14that's a giveaway but that stops for you
19:18they will not stop trying and he's the old size solution into a false shot here that he got a top
19:24edge on the lander just short of fine leg not this occasion uncomfortable height just tries to work
19:30it around the corner unfortunately top edge and an easy catch straightforward catch for cass
19:37so the captain stokes does it again gets a big breakthrough
19:41so darshan's vigil comes to an end yes stokes
19:46punches of the back foot for four
19:52and one thing with shardul thako is uh not short of confidence the bad is uh got useful runs in the past
20:00nicely played yeah he can bat there's no doubt about it very good striker of the ball good timer of the ball
20:14no mid-off stokes was close and wide and taku has just punched it down the ground
20:20who's delivery this from joe root been standing very close at mid off all taku had to do was just
20:30show the full face of the bat which he did
20:35and he goes again
20:41that's very brave from jadeja left-arm spinner also tell you the confidence that he is batting with
20:46but 550 is on the bounce now in the series
20:51arguably one of india's most consistent batters and he's taking that confidence forward
20:56two sixty four for four
21:13wonder if stokes will say right enough now i'm going to take the new ball and i think that's what's
21:19happening right now
21:23stokes wasn't going to offer up some freebies with spin so he said to the umpires can we take the new
21:29ball the umpires have said no the light's not good enough for four and there are the starts
21:36for that india batting lineup 58 46 61 12 37 retired hurt not quite hard but it was ben stokes who again
21:46was the best bowler for england without a shadow of doubt lamb dawson playing a test match after eight
21:50years picked up one
