1st T20: Wright falls after brisk stand

NEW DELHI: Alex Hales slams half-ton after facing 26 deliveries as England look for a big total in the first T20 at the Subrata Roy Sahara Stadium in Pune.

Scorecard

Earlier, England's crossed 50-run mark on the fifth delivery of the fifth over.

Off-spinner R Ashwin gave India the first breakthrough by dismissing Michael Lumb (1) in the fourth over after England were invited to bat.

Ashwin trapped Lumb leg before wickets at the score of 21.

Parwinder Awana made debut for India as Rohit Sharma failed to make the cut.

England have handed T20 debut to off-spinner James Tredwell.

Under-fire for the first Test series loss to England in 28 years and with his captaincy under the scanner, skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni will have to put these issues on the back burner and motivate his teammates for the shortest format of the game.

England have made wholesale changes in their squad with triumphant Test skipper Alastair Cook returning home and replaced at the helm by hard-hitting middle order batsman Eoin Morgan who was part of the Test team but did not play a single game.

India: Gautam Gambhir, Ajinkya Rahane, Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni (capt), R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Piyush Chawla, Ashok Dinda, Parwinder Awana

England: Alex Hales, Michael Lumb, Luke Wright, Eoin Morgan (capt), Samit Patel, Jos Buttler (wk), Tim Bresnan, James Tredwell, Stuart Meaker, Danny Briggs, Jade Dernbach
