50 up for Team India!
A slow but a positive start from openers Rohit Sharma (23*) and Shikhar Dhawan (26*). Both have batted sensibly so far in this first ODI in Pune and will now be looking to score big. Both look pretty much settled in now. India get to the 50-run mark after 12.5 overs.
14:25 (IST) Mar 23
End of 1st Powerplay!
Openers Shikhar Dhawan (20*), Rohit Sharma (19*) move forward cautiously. England have bowled well and fielded brilliantly in the first 10 overs but have not yet got any success. India 39/0. First bowling change for England now as Tom Curran comes into the attack.
14:20 (IST) Mar 23
End of 9th over | India 34/0
Back-to-back boundaries for Rohit Sharma. This time the Hitman produces a perfect on-drive. Pitched up from Mark Wood and Rohit hits it straight down the ground for a boundary.
14:18 (IST) Mar 23
8.5 overs | Wood to Rohit | FOUR!
Blazed away to the extra-cover fence. Outside off from Mark Wood and Rohit slams it in between the cover and the mid-off fielder to collect four runs.
14:14 (IST) Mar 23
7.1 overs| Curran to Dhawan | DROPPED!
Outside off from Sam Curran and Shikhar Dhawan throws his bat at it. The ball goes to the left of Jason Roy at point. Roy dives but is not able to hold on to the ball. A sharp chance but should have been taken. Dhawan survives! IND 24/0
14:07 (IST) Mar 23
6.5 overs | Wood to Dhawan | FOUR!
Back-to-back boundaries for Shikhar Dhawan. This time a bit fuller from Mark Wood. Dhawan presses his front foot forward, gets in line of the ball and drives it through covers to collect four more runs. The timing on that shot was exquisite. IND 23/0
14:06 (IST) Mar 23
6.4 overs | Wood to Dhawan | FOUR!
Short and quick outside off from Mark Wood and Shikhar Dhawan cuts it to the point fence.
14:03 (IST) Mar 23

FOUR! First boundary for Rohit Sharma in this inning. Moves across outside off and scoops a Sam Curran length delivery over the short fine-leg fielder to collect four runs.
14:00 (IST) Mar 23
Back-to-back maidens!
A tight over from Mark Wood comes to an end. He has been quick consistently throughout this series. Another fiery over from him. IND 10/0 after 5 overs

Rohit gets hit on the elbow! Physio on the field
A quick 148 km/he ball from Mark Wood and it hits Rohit Sharma on the right elbow. Rohit in discomfort as team physio arrives on the field to attend him. Players will have a drink as well. IND 10/0
13:50 (IST) Mar 23
End of 4th over | India 10/0
A maiden over from Sam Curran. The first of the match. Curran is managing to move the ball both the ways at the start. A watchful Shikhar Dhawan negates the over safely.
13:44 (IST) Mar 23
2.4 overs | Wood to Dhawan | FOUR!
Short and wide outside off and Shikhar Dhawan was quick to pounce onto it. Cuts it behind point as the ball races to the fence. IND 9/0. There was some issue with the ball -- just 16 deliveries old -- and the umpires have replaced it with the new one.
13:41 (IST) Mar 23
End of 2nd over | India 4/0
Good start from Sam Curran as well from the other end. Just 3 off his first over. Mark Wood continues!

Dhawan gets off the mark as well!
Short outside off from Sam Curran. Shikhar Dhawan gently guides the ball to the third-man fielder to open his account. IND 3/0 after 1.3 overs

13:07 (IST) Mar 23

Very happy to bat first, we had different plans. It's a great opportunity for us to put runs on the board. The last game we played here against England is a great memory. If we believe we are a top side we should be ready to do anything, whether we decide or asked to do something. KL will bat at 5 and keep. Top four are Rohit, Shikhar, myself and Sheryas. Hardik bats at 6, Krunal at 7. Shardul 8, Bhuvi at 9, Prasidh and Kuldeep complete.

India skipper Virat Kohli at the toss
