Shikhar Dhawan looked to get steady on the crease with his 45-ball-28 run knock before Milne got him as well, cleaned up in the 13th over. Shreyas Iyer, who top scored for team India in the 1st ODI, continued his good run as he scored 49 runs before Devon Conway grabbed an excellent catch on Lockie Ferguson to dismiss the batter. 

RIshabh Pant (10) continued his dismayed run while Suryakumar Yadav also failed to show up in the 50-over format, scoring 6 runs before getting dismissed by Milne. Towards the end, Washington Sundar held the crease as he scored a half-century to take India across the 200-run mark. Sundar scored 51 runs off 64 balls with 5 fours & a six.
