Indian vice-captain Rohit Sharma and Shubhman Gill, playing his second test match, are opening for the first together in a test match and they have already made their mark as a pair.
The pair crossed the 50 runs in their partnership in the 19th over. This is the first time after 14 innings that India has made 50+ runs for the first wicket. The last time it happened was back in 2019 when Rohit Sharma and Mayank Agarwal scored 317 runs against South Africa in Vizag.
