A target of 219 looked out of the champions' reach when they lost the top three of captain Rohit Sharma, the in-form Suryakumar Yadav and Quinton de Kock with 80-odd runs on the board. A 89-run stand for the fourth wicket, which saw Pollard and Krunal Pandya (pictured) take advantage of a flat batting surface and the smaller square boundaries, kept the champions in the chase.
