Rahul was clean bowled (another common mode of dismissal for him) by Jason Holder for no addition to his score. He seemed to have been caught in two minds - to leave or play - as he dragged one on to his stumps

The 10th ball that KL Rahul faced during his 25-ball four on Saturday must have created a lot of anxiety in the Indian camp. Shannon Gabriel aimed to exploit Rahul's biggest weakness - the in-swinger.

The ball shaped in well, threatened to go through the gate but Rahul got an inside edge which could have gone on to hit his stumps. Batting on four, the Indian opener survived and the Indian camp breathed a huge sigh of relief. Rahul appeared to be out of form as Prithvi Shaw went hammer and tongs to bring up India's 50 with his contribution being 34.
