Glenn Phillips continues and Kohli and Gill rotate the strike with five singles. Both of them are playing sensible, no-risk cricket and are taking India closer to the target. 

Adithya Ashok is back into the attack. Three dots and a single off the first four deliveries before Gill gets to his fifty with a single. A timely fifty for Gill who had been going through a lean patch. 

A dot to end the five-run over. 


Glenn Phillips continues and Kohli nudges the tossed up delivery to mid-wicket and gets off the strike. 

A dot later, Gill dances down the track and lofts it straight over the bowler's head for a boundary. 

Two singles and a dot to end the over. Seven runs came off it. 


Adithya Ashok with his fourth over and bowls a short delivery and Kohli needs no second invitation to smash it over the deep mid-wicket region for a boundary. 


Follows it up with a single through mid-wicket. 

Out! Gill departs, caught by Glenn Phillips. Adithya Ashok break the partnership. Floated outside offside and Gill attempts to drive but fails to keep it down. Phillips takes a simple catch at extra cover.

Gill goes for a 71-ball 56 with three boundaries and two sixes. 

Shreyas Iyer is the new man in and he gets off the mark with a push to long-on. 

A dot and a brace to end the over. Eight runs came off it.
