The tension in Dubai is boiling over. After Abhishek Sharma smashed Shaheen Afridi for a six earlier in the innings and exchanged words with the left-arm pacer, Shubman Gill too got into a heated moment with Afridi.
In the fourth over, Afridi bowled a length delivery outside off, and Gill charged down the track to smash it wide of extra-cover for a boundary. Immediately after the shot, Gill turned towards Afridi and exchanged words, with the Pakistan pacer choosing to walk back silently.
India, chasing 172, have raced to 32/0 in 3.1 overs, with Gill on 21 (11) and Abhishek Sharma on 11 (8). The fiery contest between bat and ball has now spilled into verbal duels, making the high-voltage clash even more intense.
