The left-handed batter walked in at number five, with Men in Blue in trouble at 66/4 in 14.1 overs

Ishan joined forces with all-rounder Hardik Pandya to help Team India recover from a difficult situation. Ishan-Pandya's partnership helped India cross the 200-run mark. However, the left-handed batter started to struggle due to cramps. This made him go for big shots as running between the wickets became difficult.

The 138-run stand between the two was broken as Ishan's mistimed shot landed in the hands of skipper Babar Azam. Kishan was dismissed for 82 (81 balls), which included nine fours and two sixes off the bowling of Haris Rauf.

This was Kishan's seventh half-century in ODIs. This is also his fourth successive score of 50 or more in ODIs. Earlier, during the series against West Indies in July-August, Ishan had notched scores of 52, 55 and 77 in three ODIs. His 184 in three matches at an average of over 61 gave him the 'Player of the Series' award.

Before Ishan in 2011, MS Dhoni had scored four half-centuries in a row from September-October 2011. He had scored 69, 78*, 50*, 87* against England. Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina, Navjot Singh Sidhu and Sourav Ganguly are other players who have scored four successive fifty-plus scores for India.
