India made a shiny begin to the sport with Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill scoring half-centuries at higher than a run a ball in a gap stand of 121. Shaheen Shah Afridi bowled an costly first spell whereas Naseem Shah was luckless on the different finish, beating Rohit's bat repeatedly with outswing and further bounce. Pakistan recovered some management by dismissing each openers inside eight balls of one another - with Shaheen returning after going off the sphere with an injured finger to get Gill with a slower ball - earlier than rain arrived with Virat Kohli and KL Rahul on the crease.
