Score96 - 4

K Jadhav to S Ahmed, OUT! Take a bow, Manish Pandey! That is a gem of a catch. Malik's opportunity was missed in the previous over but this time the substitute, Pandey, has come to the fore. Tossed up fullish ball on off, Ahmed clears his front leg and slogs it towards wide long on. Manish covers a lot of ground to his right, keeps his balance intact and takes it brilliantly with both his hands. He realizes that the momentum is taking him over the ropes and hence, lobs the ball back into play. He crosses the boundary and then comes in to collect it. His teammates barge towards him. This is a good phase of play for India and they will like to make hay while the sun shines.

K Yadav to S Malik, Oh, dear! Bhuvneshwar Kumar has completely missed that. Shoaib Malik is offered another life. He gives the charge to this floated ball and slogs over mid-wicket. Plenty of height, not enough distance and Bhuvneshwar is out in the deep. The setting sun's in his eye and as a result, he loses it and runs too far inside. Sunglasses are there for a reason, should have opted for them when they are so freely available. One taken.
