Shubman Gill played a powerful knock of 45 runs off 65 balls, smashing 8 fours. He played each ball with an array of good shots. But, he was caught behind by Tim Paine with an easy catch. On the other hand, Cheteshwar Pujaraa played with soft hands throughout his knock. However, Tim Paine dismissed him for 17 off 70 balls.
