Gill and Virat Kohli forged a 69-run stand for the second wicket to set the platform for India. Once Gill was dismissed, Shreyas Iyer joined Virat Kohli in the middle. Gill came to the Champions Trophy on the back of an impressive display in the ODI series against England. He had finished as the top run-getter in that series (295 runs, two fifties, and one century). He followed that up with impressive fashion, slamming an unbeaten century in the match against Bangladesh.
Pakistan on the other hand, suffered a 60-run loss to New Zealand in their first match, making the game against India a must-win one. If Pakistan loses this match, they will be playing their next fixture against Bangladesh for pride.
