Kohli clips the second ball off his pads to fine leg for one and Rohit picks one before the two batsmen collect one more single each to get four from the over.

A good over from Milne as he gives away just two singles before Rohit pulls de Grandhomme behind square for a four coupled with five singles to get nine from the over.

Spin introduced as Mitchell Santner comes into the attack after just two overs from Milne.

Rohit brings his front foot down and sweeps the left-arm spinner through fine leg for a four to take his score to 40 from as many balls. Two balls later, he cuts a short ball behind point for another boundary as India continue to increase the tempo.

Kohli drives de Grandhomme through the covers for a couple to raise the 50-run stand from just 48 balls.
