Then Nitish Rana also lost his temper and caught Rashid Khan while playing a big shot. Nitish was dismissed for 29. Andre Russell also flopped once again and was dismissed for 9.

Williamson and Bairstow's 57-run opening partnership

Ken Williamson was caught out by Nitish Rana on the third man bowling by Loki Ferguson. He hit 29 off 19 balls with the help of 4 fours and 1 six. He had a 57-run partnership with Johnny Bairstow for the first wicket. No reason has been given as to why Williamson came to the opening in place of David Warner. The way Williamson was playing, it looks like he came into the opening to take advantage of the powerplay as he had trouble running. Johnny Bairstow was caught out by Russell on a long-off off Varun Chakraborty. He scored 36 off 28 balls with the help of 7 fours.
