Early wickets for England
Virat Kohli was bowled out by Reece Topley in the third over, scoring just 9 runs. This was Kohli’s fifth single-digit score in seven innings this World Cup. Kohli tries to make room on the leg side, goes for a slog, misses, and is bowled out.
Sam Curran trapped Rishabh Pant in the sixth over for 4 runs, adding to India’s early troubles. Pant attempts to go over the midwicket fielder but ends up giving an easy catch.
Delayed start and additional time
