Clearly bowling to a plan in the second over after lunch, Anderson held back some pace and drew a mistimed drive from Cheteshwar Pujara which was athletically taken by Ian Bell at silly mid-on.
Then, from the final ball of a superb over, Broad drew a loose drive from Rogers that flew off the edge and was put down at second slip by Swann, diving across Cook, who looked well positioned to take the catch.
Miller converted a decisive 3-point play with 1 minute 43 seconds to go on a drive that drew a foul from Kidd and gave the Pacers an 83-79 lead.
Vale responded immediately, as Jennison Myrie-Williams unleashed a drive which drew a fine save from Scott Davies.
Cheick Tiote's long-range drive drew a flying save from visiting keeper Vito Mannone and, from the resulting corner, Shola Ameobi should have done better than heading wide from six yards out.
Adam Kennedy drew a walk, then Olivo drove in both runners with a grounder just inside third base and into the left-field corner.

Siemian was 8 of 11 for 78 yards over all, 6 of 7 on the winning drive, and drew a critical penalty when he was hit out of bounds by Keon Lyn after a 9-yard gain on third-and-15 from the Syracuse 27.
Beckham, hobbled by a bum hamstring, was able to reenter at the end of that drive and drew a pivotal pass-interference call.
