12.4 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Suryakumar Yadav seems to be in full flight at the moment.

SKY holds the pose after that shot as well and Azmatullah Omarzai is under pressure from the get-go.

11.5 overs (0 Run) Close but not close enough! Naveen-ul-Haq pitches the ball up on the stumps, Hardik Pandya gets on the front foot again and drives it with a straight bat. Naveen does well to get a right hand on it on the follow-through and the ball deflects onto the stumps at the non-striker's end. Suryakumar Yadav is backing up quite a bit but shows good reflexes to turn back and slide the bat back in. It is sent upstairs and the replays show that Yadav did manage to get back in before the bails came off. NOT OUT!
Is that a run-out at the non-striker's end? The Afghanistan players look confident here. It definitely deflects off Naveen ul-Haq's fingers but the replay shows that SKY has just put his bat down in time.

Hardik Pandya is the next man in for India.
10.5 overs (0 Run) 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.
