It happens on very few occasions when a batter survives from getting out but his partner at the non-strikers gets done with another mode of dismissal. The third ODI witnessed a similar incident as Shubman Gill was saved from getting LBW but Ishan Kishan was caught short of the crease at another end.
India is eyeing a clean sweep against Zimbabwe in the third ODI. Also, India opted to bat for the first time after winning the toss for the first time in the series. Shikhar Dhawan and KL Rahul gave a good start to the team but the visitors were reeling at 84/2.

Shubman Gill and Ishan Kishan stitched a crucial partnership of 160 runs for the third wicket before Ishan Kishan was involved in a bizarre run-out. Brad Evans was bowling the 43rd over of the innings and Shubman Gill was at the striker’s end.
Evans bowled a good length delivery angling back in which hit the pads of the batter. The bowler appealed and there was a miscommunication between Gill and Ishan Kishan.

Kishan ran to sneak a single and was halfway down the pitch when Gill sent him back. A direct hit gave no chance to Ishan Kishan to return to the crease. The review taken by Zimbabwe showed that Gill survived LBW and Kishan walked back to the pavilion as a result.
Here is the video of the dismissal of Ishan Kishan:
