Yeah, Chris Griffiths did hit the post and Sreejesh pulled off a couple of brilliant saves that may well have made the difference all through a pulsating first half.

Even so, the Indians were down to TEN and England failed to capitalise - in fact, the Indians scored when they were a man down!!!!

India with a big lead here 🏑

Mandeep Singh added another in the second quarter; we hit the post through Chris Griffiths but it's India very much in the driving seat
