Openers Rohit, Dhawan give India a good start

June 04, 2017 15:30

India 27-0 (7 ovs) vs Pak | Scorecard

Amir tries a short ball but Rohit is quick to rock back and pull it over the fielder at short fine leg for the first boundary of the Indian innings, in the fifth over.

He taps the next ball on the leg side for one before Dhawan gets an inside edge to fine leg as he goes for the big cover drive for another single.

Rohit slowly but steadily opening up, getting his rhythm back. He plays another cracking drive through the covers for a boundary followed by a single to take the score to 21 after six overs.

Rohit has a close shave as he looks to run Amir down to thirdman, gets a thick outside edge which beats the diving first slip fielder for another four. Wonder why Pakistan don't have a second slip, especially against Amir, who has bowled well against Rohit early on.
