India faces a potential setback as Mohammed Shami walked off the field during his spell. He had been bowling well, troubling Pakistan’s openers in his third over. With Shami off the field, Rohit Sharma brought in Hardik Pandya as a replacement in the attack.

If Shami is unable to return, Pandya will have to shoulder the responsibility of India’s second pacer, expected to complete his full quota of 10 overs.
