00:00India have got a couple of really good left arm swimmers who swing the ball a little bit.
00:06It's always a very, very good surface here at Ujja Bastion.
00:10On the new ball, first delivery.
00:13Great numbers, great career.
00:15Swinging the ball, off he's seen.
00:17T20 World Cup winner in 2007.
00:21He just left up.
00:24Respect.
00:27Little bit of gentle in swing.
00:31That's out, that's out.
00:33I'm sure he's caught that in his follow through.
00:35Brilliant.
00:37Absolutely sensational catch in your follow through.
00:41Kulkarni gets Kevin Peterson.
00:43Early blow for India.
00:48Ian Bell, home game.
00:53In the gap and will get the boundary.
00:55It's come after 32 deliveries.
00:58That must definitely give Ian Bell some sort of confidence.
01:02And the England dugout will be...
01:06Short and straight to Yuvraj Singh.
01:10Fumble and will take that boundary.
01:12England, Ian Bell especially.
01:15Not looking very happy, Yuvraj Singh.
01:22Nicely timed.
01:23Finds the gap and will also get a boundary.
01:25England making a move.
01:27Back to back boundaries for Ian Bell.
01:2933 for 1.
01:39Down the left side and will take that boundary.
01:42Ian Bell all of a sudden getting those couple of boundaries in the previous over.
01:47All of a sudden looking a very different batsman.
01:52Have a look at those stats.
01:54The terminator.
01:55Happy birthday, Harbhajan Singh.
02:01Goes big on the offside.
02:03And Suresh Raida takes it.
02:06He's looking at Naman Ojha that maybe you should have been calling.
02:09But Harbhajan Singh straight into the act.
02:12Picks up Phil Mustard.
02:15I think it was the keeper's ball as well.
02:18Naman Ojha stopped and Suresh Raida had to keep going.
02:21But the end of Phil Mustard.
02:23He's gone for 13.
02:24It is 42 for 2.
02:2957.50s.
02:30And was playing competitive cricket till about 10 days ago.
02:34He'd be looking for a bit of put through the end as well.
02:38That's really well played.
02:40Through the line, inside out.
02:42Overcomers will take that 6.
02:4650 up as well without 6.
02:51Finds the gap, plays it late.
02:53And will pick up that boundary as well.
02:57Ian Bell.
03:00Finding the gap to perfection on that occasion.
03:12This is in the air.
03:13Should be taken.
03:15Is taken.
03:16Low down in the end.
03:17RP Singh takes it.
03:19Harbhajan has his second wicket.
03:23And it is the big wicket of Ravi Bhopara.
03:26England champion.
03:2760 for 3.
03:32Samir Patel with all his experience.
03:34Him and Ravi Bhopara.
03:36Two of the most experienced T20 cricketers around in the world.
03:41Had a good day here for Derbyshire.
03:42Remember he made that move from Nottinghamshire here in the UK to Derbyshire.
03:46Took over the captaincy.
03:4864 from 32.
03:52Goes leg side.
03:53Picks the gap.
03:54Very good.
03:55Samir Patel.
03:56Korki mentioned.
03:57He knows the surface well.
03:58Looking good.
03:59Yeah and these boundaries are a little bit shorter than when he played against Leicestershire.
04:03Into the attack.
04:08Wow.
04:09Beautiful timing.
04:11More impressive was the placement from Samir Patel.
04:15Who picks up his third boundary.
04:19Yeah.
04:24Pumped.
04:25Short.
04:27Bell rocks back and smokes him into the fence.
04:31And how many times have we seen that through Ian Bell's career.
04:37Lovely shot.
04:38Lovely chip.
04:39Couple of bounces.
04:40Much needed boundary for Ian Bell.
04:42A little bit fuller this from Yusuf.
04:46And then he just typically.
04:49A bit harder through the offside.
04:50Straight to the man.
04:51But it's a little miss field.
04:53Just burst through the hands.
04:56Double Kulkarni.
04:59Tell me what you're doing.
05:00You just retarded.
05:02So it goes over.
05:03A wide-ish third for six.
05:06Went all the way.
05:07Shortish boundary.
05:08But he's picked that up cleanly enough for half a dozen.
05:18Straight over.
05:19Point for six.
05:21Timing again from Samir Patel.
05:24England on the charge.
05:27That's a great shot.
05:31There again.
05:32Timing.
05:33And this time along the ground for four.
05:35This is high-quality stuff from Samir Patel.
05:40This is outstanding cricket.
05:42Yusuf Atam did.
05:45Leg side.
05:46It might be a half century for Ian Bell.
05:48And it is.
05:50Prior to today, he'd scored 8,673 runs at this ground.
05:54He could add 50 more to it.
05:56They were under a lot of pressure when he walked into the middle.
05:59He has taken the onus on himself.
06:01He's got a lot of pressure.
06:03He has taken the onus on himself.
06:05To get his team to a decent total here.
06:07The 3-0 is remaining.
06:20That's exactly what we expected of him.
06:2350 of just 20.
06:24He's striking over to Kumar.
06:26It's a touch expensive.
06:2730 already of his 3.2.
06:30A little inside edge.
06:31Slower ball.
06:32Samir Patel looking to go big.
06:35And Vinny Kumar picks up the wicket.
06:38A chance losing.
06:41A little bit of shape.
06:47We've been talking about pace off.
06:54That's Korea.
07:00Five and a half thousand.
07:03Very hard indeed.
07:04Didn't have far to go at long off.
07:08And first boundary for Ayesha.
07:15Towards that gap at deep mid wicket.
07:17And four to finish.
07:19The 19th over for Ian Bell.
07:21147 for four.
07:22One to go.
07:30Oh, timing from Ayesha.
07:32And placement as well.
07:40And four more as well.
07:41Just slightly leg side.
07:43He turns it around the corner.
07:51He played a little cameo here.
07:52Always.
07:54Oh, huge is it.
07:56Yes, it's up into the bleachers.
08:00Plenty of that, Ayesha.
08:01What a way to finish.
08:03That is terrific from England.
08:05They've told us to come out there and execute their plans.
08:08165 for four.
08:10In the training overs in Ian Bell.
08:12Again standing tall.
08:1359 of 44.
08:18Yeah.
08:19Fairly happy England side I would imagine.
08:22The final will take place at this very venue.
08:27Four overs not for 37.
08:28Shukla's race is run.
08:31A bit of pace like England.
08:33Some of them have it.
08:34Ryan Sidebottom who's still.
08:36Something from Robin Utapa.
08:38Who has had all the experience.
08:41Wicket keeper.
08:42Naman Oje.
08:44Will open up.
08:47Should be in there.
08:49Ivan here.
08:54Flick leg side.
08:55Just as you mentioned Dominic Corb.
08:58Angles the ball in.
08:59But starts too straight.
09:01Naman Oje does not miss out.
09:06Change of pace.
09:07Down the ground.
09:08Belted.
09:10All the way for six.
09:12First six of the chase.
09:14Naman Oje.
09:20Up and over the offside.
09:21Lovely hands.
09:22Excellent.
09:23Short boundaries here in Birmingham.
09:26Profitable over.
09:27This for the Indian champions.
09:31Naman Oje.
09:32Leg side for six.
09:35Beautiful.
09:36Lovely, lovely.
09:37Delicate.
09:38Flick over.
09:4045.
09:41Robin Utapa joins the party.
09:47Well it's a poor ball.
09:48But it's a really good shot.
09:50Advancing down the pitch.
09:53Robin Utapa.
09:55Pumps one over.
09:56Six.
09:57It's all India at the moment.
10:01Beauty.
10:02Down the pitch.
10:03Slices for six.
10:06Back to back maximums.
10:07Four done.
10:08India flying.
10:0939 with that loss.
10:16Formerly young.
10:19Lovely.
10:20On the up.
10:21Through.
10:22Extra cover.
10:23You need good hand speed for paddle.
10:26Need it for cricket.
10:29He's taken the world by storm.
10:33That's out.
10:34Over square leg.
10:35One bounce.
10:36Four.
10:37Good finish to the over.
10:38Back to back.
10:39Boundaries.
10:4054 without loss after the power play.
10:44There it is.
10:45There it is.
10:46And Mika.
10:47No.
10:48Out of his reach.
10:53Straight up.
10:54Straight up.
10:55It's gone.
10:56Straight to Awais Shah.
11:00Short, fine leg.
11:01My goodness.
11:03What a delivery to get out to.
11:06And getting a breakthrough.
11:08Gets out for 25.
11:09Six to two for one.
11:18Lovely.
11:19Great use of the feet.
11:20And punished over.
11:21Extra cover for four.
11:26Got to make sure that he gets all the tails that he's looking for.
11:29As Raman Uthwa comes down.
11:32Dancing.
11:33Picks up a boundary.
11:35He's taking the gap on the onside as well.
11:38So for him to actually.
11:40Oh, I don't know.
11:41It's alright.
11:45Yes.
11:46Balled in.
11:47Flighted.
11:48A little bit of turn.
11:49Pitched outside leg.
11:50And turned back.
11:52Onto Lexton.
11:53A massive blow.
11:55Yeah.
11:56And I think you just saw from Chris Schofield.
11:57From 32.
11:58India champions.
11:5989 for two.
12:07Pull away.
12:08Leg side.
12:10Taken.
12:11Saj Mahmood in the deep.
12:14Excellent catch.
12:15Get your tall men.
12:16On the rope.
12:17In the deep.
12:19England did that.
12:20And they've got a lifeline.
12:22Schofield with his second wicket at 17.
12:24India champions.
12:2596 for three.
12:28Keep an eye on how he uses his hands.
12:30And uses his wrists.
12:34Down the ground.
12:35Stuart Meeker.
12:36Safely pouched.
12:39Now then.
12:40Back to back wickets.
12:42For the England champions.
12:44Game has turned on its head.
12:46Yeah.
12:47And he gets him in the end.
12:49Drop catch.
12:50The over before.
12:51Put down by.
12:5297 for four.
12:55A good player to have coming in at this stage.
12:58A bit of work to be done though.
12:59England.
13:00Fighting back.
13:07Chris Schofield has been excellent.
13:08Oh I mentioned.
13:10Gurkhani Mann is so good behind point on the offside.
13:13Watch how he uses those hands and wrists.
13:16To manipulate the ball in the gap.
13:21What about this one?
13:22This is going over the top.
13:23That's the six.
13:25They need couple of them.
13:27Those big heads.
13:28To just get going.
13:34Looks to go big.
13:35Didn't time it as well.
13:36Ryan side bottom.
13:39Takes it.
13:41Could there be another twist in the tale?
13:44Eleven from the over.
13:45Irfan Fathan.
13:46It was in the slot.
13:47Was looking to go big.
13:5415 deliveries.
13:56Out.
13:57Could that be Schofield's comeback?
14:00Yes.
14:03Ravi Bhopala.
14:05Long off.
14:06He's got a smile.
14:07But it was a good comeback.
14:08At least for Schofield.
14:10He's done his job.
14:11That's for sure.
14:13He's brought in Indian champions.
14:16Back in the game.
14:17And by saying gone for 33.
14:19He's won 55 for six.
14:21Vinay Kumar.
14:22The new man in the zone.
14:25Oh, did he get a hand on it?
14:26Did he get a hand on it?
14:29If he got a hand on it,
14:30I feel
14:31Vinay Kumar
14:32was sure he's given him out.
14:34So he,
14:35the umpire was sure
14:37that Ravi Bhopala got a little touch.
14:39And the ball was hit back.
14:41And the ball
14:42going straight in.
14:44And the umpire
14:45was sure
14:46that Ravi Bhopala got a little touch.
14:48And the ball was hit back.
14:49And the ball
14:50going straight under the stumps.
14:51And that's the wicket
14:52they were searching for.
15:07There you go.
15:08There you go.
15:10There you go.
15:14That's birthday for you.
15:17Beautiful strike.
15:20Saw the ball in his zone.
15:25Crowd's happy.
15:27In the slot.
15:28One ball that he faced.
15:30Dispatches it
15:31over long on for six.
15:32And wins the game.
15:34For the India champions.
15:37When he came out to bowl
15:38in his first over.
