Nice yorker here. But still that would be a single.
Last ball coming up.
A dot to end the over. That's a great end to the innings that has been otherwise marred by bad executions from both the sides. India will need 196 to win and move to the semis.

That was a flying Sanju Samson there. But that did not hurt him or India as the ball was eventually fielded by the short third-man.
Dropped!! Abhishek Sharma drops this one.
Not a no ball!! Ideally, that should have been a no-ball, but was given a wide.
Five balls and just four runs from it. Apart from all the things happening around it, this over by Arshdeep is a fine one.
Just six off the 19th.
