England begin their Group C campaign in Mumbai
India deny USA seismic shock | Email James
Sher Malla strikes with his first ball on international debut! It skids onto Salt who mis-times his pull shot, the ball loops up and is well taken at fine leg. England lose their first and the Nepalese strong crowd at the Wankhede lose their marbles! What a start.
1st over: England 5-0 (Salt 1, Buttler 4) Phil Salt opens England’s account off the first delivery with a firm drive to mid on where the ball is fumbled and the batters scamper a single. Jos Buttler clubs a four down the ground but is then beaten on the outside edge by an beautiful delivery that jags late. Two dots finish a tidy first over from Karan.
