First Shubman Gill, then Cheteshwar Pujara and Rishabh Pant continued to try to win India, but they were also under pressure to save defeat.

After Rohit Sharma was dismissed cheaply by seven runs, Shubman Gill and Cheteshwar Pujara added 114 runs for the second wicket.

At that time it seemed that India was in complete control. But Shubman Gill, batting brilliantly, was unlucky and missed a century.

He was dismissed after scoring 91 runs. After this, responsibility fell on Pujara and captain Ajinkya Rahane. Rahan showed aggressive attitude and also hit a four and a six in the innings of 24 runs off 22 balls.

But he was out on the ball of Cummins. After this, the Indian team came under pressure and the Indian batsmen became a bit defensive.
