Kohli’s idea to step down the order also did not pay off as he was dismissed after scoring just 16 runs by Adam Zampa. At a moment, India did not look like crossing the 250-run mark, however, just before Shreyas Iyer’s rare failure lead to Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja rebuilding the innings in the 33rd over. The duo did well to stitch a 49-run partnership for the 6th wicket. But Pat Cummins came back for a spell to dismiss Pant and soon Jadeja fell.
