2.5 OUT! CAUGHT! The change of pace has worked and Rohit Sharma has thrown his wicket away. Fazalhaq Farooqi knows that Rohit is itching to get a big hit away and pitches the ball up within the lines of the stumps but smartly takes pace off the ball as well. Rohit crouches a bit and goes hard at it but only manages to lift it a mile high and towards mid on. His opposite number, Rashid Khan settles under it and takes a fine catch. Yet another dismissal for Rohit against the left-armed pacer and that's the 8th time now he has got out to a left-armer inside the Powerplay in T20Is. 11/1

8.3 OUT! TAKEN! Rashid Khan is turning the game on its head here! He gets the big fish, Virat Kohli now. Flighted delivery, full and on off, Virat Kohli backs away a bit and tries to loft it over extra covers, but the ball did not turn enough and he ends up hitting it much straighter towards long off where Mohammad Nabi takes a fine catch. Kohli goes after a run-a-ball knock and India are three down now. That was an uncanny mistake from the Indian stalwart. 62/3

| Rishabh Pant Wk | 20 | 11 | 4 | 0 | 181.81 |
|
7 OUT! LBW! A huge shout by the Afghans and up goes the finger! Is that the first wicket for Rashid Khan against India in T20Is? We will have to wait and see as Pant takes the review here. Rashid bowls the leg-break this time, full and on middle and off, turns in a bit, Rishabh Pant takes his chance and goes for the reverse sweep but the ball is very full for that shot, he misses it and gets hit on the pads. UltraEdge confirms no bat involved and Ball Tracking comes up with three reds. India lose a big wicket and a review as well, and Rashid Khan opens his account against India in T20Is. 54/2

| Suryakumar Yadav | 53 | 28 | 5 | 3 | 189.28 |
|
17 OUT! TAKEN! A huge sigh of relief for Afghanistan! Fazalhaq Farooqi gets the big breakthrough with another slower one, full and on off, Suryakumar Yadav tries to fetch it from there and slog it leg side, but fails to get underneath it and toe-ends it high in the air towards long off, Mohammad Nabi settles under it and pouches it safely under pressure. SKY goes back after a fine fifty! 150/5

| Shivam Dube | 10 | 7 | 0 | 1 | 142.85 |
|
10.5 OUT! LBW! Excellent review! A prolonged appeal for LBW from the bowler and the keeper but the umpire says no. Rashid Khan reviews it immediately as he feels it was pad first and then bat and the third umpire is called in. This is the regulation leg break, bowled flatter on middle and turning back in sharply. Shivam Dube opts to go on the back foot and is late on the dab and seems to have got a bit of glove onto the pads. However, the replays and UltraEdge confirm that there was no bat involved and Ball Tracking comes up with three reds and Rashid has this third wicket. 90/4

| Hardik Pandya | 32 | 24 | 3 | 2 | 133.33 |

18 OUT! TAKEN! Naveen-ul-Haq gets his man this time! No need for a review now. Fullish delivery, outside off, keeps it out of reach for the batter, Hardik Pandya still goes after it but only manages to slice it up in the air towards sweeper covers, Azmatullah Omarzai judges it well and takes a good catch. A fiery knock from Pandya finally comes to an end! 159/6

| Ravindra Jadeja | 7 | 5 | 1 | 0 | 140 |
|
18.4 OUT! TAKEN! Fazalhaq Farooqi has three now! He bangs this one into the pitch, but takes all the pace off, it is going well over the head of the batter. However, Ravindra Jadeja still tries to ramp it away but miscues it off the toe-end towards wide of short third where Gulbadin Naib moves to his left and takes a nice catch. India seven down now and Afghanistan has pulled things back slightly here! 165/7

| Axar Patel | 12 | 6 | 2 | 0 | 200 |

20 OUT! RUN OUT! An anti-climatic end to the innings but still 13 runs come off the last over! Naveen-ul-Haq lands this back of a length, outside off, slower too, and angles away as well, Axar Patel swings across the line but misses, Arshdeep Singh takes off to steal a bye but Axar is very late to react, Rahmanullah Gurbaz throws it to the bowler and Naveen runs to break the stumps with Axar well short of his crease. India finishes on 181/8! 181/8

He sees the batter back away and bowls this a touch fuller, but well outside off and slower too, Rahmanullah Gurbaz still tries to reach for it, and throws his bat it. However, he only manages to toe-end it behind where Rishabh Pant makes no mistake. Early blow for Afghanistan! 13/1

15.2 OUT! CAUGHT! That one was traveling quickly but Arshdeep Singh makes no mistake and Jasprit Bumrah has his third wicket. Goes full and quick and angles it across from off and middle stump, Najibullah Zadran backs away a fair bit and looks to slap it over point but doesn't quite get the elevation. Arshdeep there springs to his right and pouches it with two hands and that one must have stung the palms. Najibullah Zadran has to walk back though. 102/6

16.3 OUT! TAKEN! High, high and taken in the deep! Flighted delivery, on the stumps and forcing the batter to have a go at it. Mohammad Nabi is forced to hit against the wind and towards the longer part of the ground as he tries to heave it over deep mid-wicket but gets a lot of height and not enough distance. Ravindra Jadeja settles himself just inside the ropes and takes a fine catch to his left. 114/7

17.4 OUT! CAUGHT! This is bowled on the fuller side of a length ball and angled well across the off stump.
