Stat - Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, at the age of 15 years and 99 days, has achieved the distinction of being India's youngest international cricketer. This record was formerly held by Sachin Tendulkar, who made his debut at 16 years and 205 days in Test matches in 1989, and at 16 years and 238 days in One Day Internationals (ODIs) in the same year. Additionally, Washington Sundar holds the title of India's youngest T20I debutant, having played at the age of 18 years and 80 days against Sri Lanka in 2017.

India have not got a blazing start at Old Trafford with both batters being beaten by swing and pace from the English pacers. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi did try to swing his bat but was beaten by Josh Tongue as India managed just 10 runs in the first two overs.

Abhishek Sharma and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi have got going as they have amassed 41 runs in the first four overs. After quiet few deliveries, Abhishek hammered 20 runs off Josh Tongue's over as India look to up the ante against the hosts at Old Trafford.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's debut lasted mere 10 deliveries as the 15-year-old sensation was stumped off Will Jacks' bowling in the fifth over. The Indian batting prodigy tried to come down the crease but was beaten in flight and Jos Buttler made sure he cleaned up the stumps.

What a vague end to the PP for India. After hammering three fours off Sam Curran's bowling, Abhishek received a full-toss and he hit it straight into the hands of Tom Banton who catches as easy as it goes.

Shreyas Iyer has walked in to the crease as India look to carry on the momentum against the English bowling attack. The hosts have introduced spinners with Liam Dawson and Adil Rashid but the Indian batters have shown no mercy as they hit the bad balls away to the boundary.

India have amassed 96 runs in the first ten overs of their innings with Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan steadying the ship after losing the openers. Both the experienced players are putting the bad balls away and pushing for ones and twos when necessary.

Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan are building up nicely as they eye a 200-plus score on this bouncy wicket. The Indian skipper was hit hard on his fingers by a bouncy ball from Tongue and the player had to receive treatment. IND's run-rate is close to 10 runs-per-over and with big-hitters yet to come, this is building nicely.

Shreyas Iyer looked to finish the Liam Dawson over with a maximum but could not get the connection and ended up holding it in the hands of Tom Banton as England struck in the 13th over. Shreyas had to walk back for a well-made 37 as India lose their third.

Shivam Dube has walked in to the crease and the all-rounder received quite the welcome from Jofra Archer with a bumpy bouncer. Ishan Kishan is still at the crease as India must get a move on if they are to achieve a target post-200.

Shivam Dube's innings came to an end as India lost their fourth wicket with Sam Curran bowling a brilliant over, that yielded mere two runs. India, who were destined to register a score of 200, now look in danger of achieving under that.

India have lost momentum in the middle-overs as they are now looking to target 180-plus. Some good bowling by Sam Curran and the ENG bowlers, have not allowed India to score freely as the visitors will be disappointed with their performance in the middle-overs.

Some fightback India in the 20th over with Tilak Varma hammering Jofra Archer for two sixes and a boundary. India reach a par score in Manchester after a solid start. England will be happy with the target on the board but the last over could have tilted the momentum.

What a start IND has pulled out here! Two wickets - Phil Salt and Jos Buttler - both back in the pavillion with Arshdeep Singh removing the two dangerous batters. Shreyas Iyer could not have asked for a better start in Manchester.

Harry Brook has come in and whacked couple of fours off Harshit Rana's bowling. India will be looking to make the most of the bounce from the Old Trafford pitch. Hitting isn't easy on this pitch and ENG batters will have to use all of their strength to hit out of the park.

Arshdeep's first over seems ages ago as Harry Brook launches an attack on the left-armer with the seamer going for 27 runs. 44666 - Brook hammered the seamer to all corners of the ground and Shreyas Iyer seems to have his main pacer in a fix.

India finally see the back of Harry Brook after the ENG captain had to walk back for a blistering 39 (15 balls). Axar takes his 100th T20I wicket and it is the England captain, who had earlier hammered 27 runs off Arshdeep's over. India will heave a sigh of relief to see the back of the England skipper.

England need 115 runs in 72 balls with seven wickets still intact. Jacob Bethell and Tom Banton are working it nicely for ENG with ones and twos and the odd boundary. India need to tighten up the screws a bit which could entice the hosts to go big and that could well bring a wicket.

India need a wicket now if they are get back in the game with Jacob Bethell and Tom Banton going after the spinners. Varun Chakaravarthy has leaked few boundaries and so has the other two.

England are going at 9.45 runs per over and that is well within the target reach. The hosts are well on top here and India need wickets. The spinners are struggling for lengths and Shreyas Iyer has a problem on his hands.

Arshdeep removes Tom Banton and India finally have a wicket in the 13th over. Banton was looking to hit big but found the fielder in Tilak Varma as Arshdeep bags his third wicket and India are finally in the game.

England need 59 runs in 30 balls and they have six wickets in hand. But the big thing is, they have Jacob Bethell at the crease. India, on the other hand, need to stop the run-flow and tighten the screws a bit.

29 runs off Ravi Bishnoi's over and the game is well within England's grasp now. Bishnoi bowled two unneccesary no-balls as Jacob Bethell launched the under-fire spinner for two maximums. To add insult to injury, Arshdeep Singh injured his shoulder in the process.

England reach the target with an over to spare. Jacob Bethell's fiery 76 and some contributions from Harry Brook and Tom Banton ensured the hosts go 1-0 in the five-match series. Ravi Bishnoi's poor 17th over was one and Arshdeep conceding to Harry Brook earlier, were the main reasons as to the visitors losing this game.
