India faced early challenges in their innings, losing captain Rohit Sharma cheaply. The situation worsened as both Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli fell for low scores, leaving the team in a tough spot at 34/3 after nine overs.
Despite these setbacks, Rishabh Pant and Yashasvi Jaiswal provided some stability. However, after Pant, KL Rahul, and Jaiswal were dismissed, Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin were tasked with rebuilding the innings.
Ashwin made an immediate impact, hitting a brilliant boundary upon his arrival.In the 44th over, Nahid Rana bowled a back-of-a-length delivery around off stump.
Ashwin expertly judged the line and length, guiding the ball to backward point with perfect timing, sending it racing to the boundary for a stunning four.
