Ishan Kishan opened the innings in Rohit's absence and after getting dropped twice sent the English bowlers to a leather-hunt during his 46-ball 70. He went back to pavallion voluntarily to provide other batters a chance to bat. Kohli fell short, but Pant came in at number four and delivered a blistering performance that included three sixes. Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya appeared a little scratchy, but they only had a few deliveries to deal with before getting the touch back.
Earlier, Mohammed Shami snapped three wickets but Jonny Bairstow smashed a 36-ball 49 to help England post a challenging 188 for 5.

Virat Kohli to bat at Number 3 spot during ICC T20 World Cup 2021
India captain Virat Kohli on Monday said he will bat at number three instead of opening the innings in the ICC T20 World Cup with KL Rahul having sealed the second opener's slot alongside Rohit Sharma.
The Indian skipper kept it open-ended when asked about the team's top-six batters going into the opening match of the tournament against arch-rivals Pakistan on October 24.
"Things were different before IPL, now it's difficult to look beyond KL Rahul at the top of the order. Rohit is a no-brainer. World-class player, he's been solid up front. I will be batting at 3. That's the only news I can give to start off," Kohli said at the toss before the warm-up game against England.
Rahul emerged as the third highest scorer in the IPL with 628 runs besides hitting the most number of sixes (30) in the tournament.
"We are pretty sorted in terms of how we are going to start in the first game (versus Pakistan)."
The objective behind the two warm-up matches is to give game time to everyone as they get back into the groove after a short break.
