He showcased his batting by scoring boundaries at regular intervals and playing shots, which scattered the Pakistan fielding. 

The Indian batsman smashed a four beyond point off the first wide delivery when Gill encountered Naseem Shah during the eighth over. The following ball swung quickly, and Gill walked away. The third ball was sent outside, where Gill had only seconds before positioned his bat.

Iftikhar Ahmed, the fielder, did not even attempt to grab the ball after it struck the leading edge of Gill’s bat and moved to slip. Naseem Shah, the bowler, became quite irate in response. Rizwan, the wicketkeeper, conveyed his dissatisfaction.

Rohit Sharma was additionally seen batting shrewdly at the same time before smashing Shadab Khan for two consecutive sixes in his first over. He continued the onslaught against the spinner as he notched another 18 runs in the spinner’s second over. The duo looked solid in the middle before two quick wickets after the drinks break.
