Fast bowler Haris Rauf comes into the attack, to bowl the 10th over. Pant defends the first ball pitched up before he lofts the slower ball over the fielder in the covers for a four.
The left-hander shuffles across and plays his trademark pick up shot off the short ball on his pads, getting the ball fine for a four even as he takes a tumble while completing the shot.
Rauf switches to over the wicket. He bowls full but on the pads as Pant manages to flick it fine past short fine leg for another boundary.
A good short ball which bounces sharply but Pant adjusts well to guide it past point for one.
Suryakumar is beaten as he plays away from his body to the full ball which moves away.
India have recovered to 81/3 in 10 overs at the halfway mark with Pant hitting 34 from 23 balls and Suryakumar on five.
