The real thrill was seen in the over.

The match became more interesting after Bumrah started this over with a six. On the next ball, Vaibhav showed patience and took a single and gave the strike to his fellow batsman. Then on getting strike again, Vaibhav hit another brilliant six on the fourth ball. This time, sensing the slow ball, he sent the ball across the boundary line over deep square leg. This shot shows both his understanding and confidence.

Maturity shown even under pressure

In the last balls of the over, Jasprit Bumrah changed his strategy and tried to create pressure through yorkers and full toss. While trying to take a run on the fifth ball, Vaibhav went out of the crease and while diving, he also collided with the stumps, but he remained safe. During this period his confidence did not appear to be wavering at all.
