Ian Bell has reached his fifty with a punch to deep cover for a single. England 107-2 with Root at the other end on 19.

At halfway, England have reached 97-2 with Bell on 43 looking to kick on and make a big score. With him is Joe Root on 16 as England continue to go at a run rate of 3.88 which will see them through to 194 at the end of the innings if they continue to score that.

In the last five overs England have added 17 runs for the loss of Trott for 37. Bell is on 33 and new batsman Root is on 3 as England reach 74-2. The platform is in the hands of these two with Morgan, Bopara and Buttler to provide the hitting late on.

Trott departs LBW for 37 off the bowling of McClenaghan who now has figures of 2-7 off 4.1 overs. England are 69-2 in the 19th over with Joe Root the next batsman to come to the crease.
