New Delhi, Sept. 28 -- Tilak smashes half century off 41 balls at a strike-rate of 121.95.

Shivam Dube 10 (9) and Tilak Varma 48 (39) including three fours and three sixes.

Saim Ayub to Shivam Dube, 1 run. Tilak Varma narrowly escapes! A very full ball from Ayub, Dube gets an outside edge while attempting to drive, and the ball races toward Hasan Ali at short third.

Hasan slides to stop it and quickly flicks the ball back, but Haris fumbles the stumps on his first attempt. This slight delay gives Tilak just enough time to dive full-stretch and make his ground.

Samson departs after contributing important 24 runs off 21 balls. India need 70 runs from 46 balls.

Tilak Varma and Sanju Samson have sucessfully stabilized the innings.
