    Over 0.6 Deepak Chahar bowls a good length delivery to Shubman Gill, out Shubman Gill Run Out!! This had lobbed towards the on-side as the right-hander missed out on his nudge and Gill had set off for a run. He was almost halfway down the track when Iyer sent him back. Puts in a dive to get back in, but Rayudu was bang on with his throw.
