Earlier, Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and opted to bowl first. The decision proved to be a good one for the Men in Green because left-arm pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi sent both Indian openers Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul back to the dressing room before they could score big. Sharma went for duck and lost his wicket on the first ball he faced, while Rahul returned after scoring three runs.
