Sundar drives Phillips down to long-on for a single and Gill blocks the last two balls.

Ajaz from over the wicket bowling into the rough to Sundar. He sweeps the second ball from outside the line of off-stump for a single to fine leg.

Gill takes one off the last ball, hitting it past the bowler to long-off.

In the next over, Gill uses his feet to hit Phillips to long-off for one as the deficit comes down to 10.

Sundar looking quite solid, playing to the merit of the ball and not trying anything rash.

The last ball is a half-tracker down the leg side as Gill misses out, pulling it to the fielder at backward square leg just for a single.
