Rohit Sharma’s significant innings concluded at 41 off 36 balls, helping India reach 69 within the powerplay. India are in a commanding position to secure a memorable victory against the 2017 semi-finalists, and have now set themselves up for their highly anticipated match against arch-rivals Pakistan on Sunday at the same venue.

Virat Kohli Completes 11,000 ODI RUNS, But In Different Category:
The Indian captain’s innings featured 7 boundaries, and with this record-breaking performance, he has crossed the 11,000-run milestone. Meanwhile, Virat Kohli has also achieved the same feat but in a distinct category, as ‘The Chase Master’ has accumulated 11,000 ODI runs in Day-Night matches.

These runs do not account for those Kohli has scored in Day-only ODIs, which is an impressive accomplishment in itself.
