This was a massive stand as the Indian team piled on the runs in double quick team. During this partnership, Kishan posted his maiden double hundred and became the fourth Indian to achieve this feat. He was the youngest reach to this landmark. Kishan finished on 210 off 131 balls with 24 boundaries and 10 sixes. Then Kohli took charge as he reached his 72nd international hundred to finish on 113 off 91 balls with 11 boundaries and two sixes.
