Jacob Bethell will begin the day with the ball. Across the wicket to Akash Deep. He begins off with one sliding down leg-side and Akash misses the chance to place it away behind the wicketkeeper. FOUR! Smashed by Akash over midwicket and he finds the boundary within the first over of the day. Hacked throughout the road once more by Akash, the ball plugs within the outfield, and simply a few runs. The sector now drops again, with a deep square-leg in place. Flip and bounce for Bethell and Bethell beats Akash’s exterior edge. Defended again to the bowler by Akash to finish the over. Optimistic begin from India.
