Towards the beginning of the Kohli-Gill partnership, Virat Kohli got saved a close run-out chance while he himself was batting. Despite getting a call, Kohli ran towards the non-strikers end, while the fielder Mark Wood had already collected the ball and had sent to the bowler Gus Atkinson, standing near Shubman Gill. Thanks to Gill's wit, that he sent Kohli back, otherwise Gill himself would have been an easy target. Meanwhile, before Phil Salt hit the stumps, Kohli was safely inside the crease, and then turned back sharing a laugh with Gill.

Kohli was impressive, hitting sweeps and drives and having swift feet movement. Apart from the run-out, he survives a DRS against an LBW appeal. His half-century came in the 18 over with a single against Liam Livingston. Earlier in the over he had smashed a six and then defended follwed by which the hafty run came. However, the 166-run partnership between Gill and Kohli ended as England spinner Adil Rashid ended Kohli's magic in the last ball of the very next over Rashid once again proved his mastery over leg-spin, outfoxing Virat Kohli with a beautifully flighted delivery. Tossing the ball up with generous drift, Rashid invited Kohli forward, only for the ball to dip and turn sharply off the surface. Kohli, committed to his shot, could only manage an edge, which was safely taken by Phil Salt behind the stumps. This marked the fourth time since the World Cup that Kohli fell to a leg-spinner.
