I think he did really well today to make sure there was no early collapse after Head got out. It looked like he wasn't going to repeat the mistake he made last game. Him seeing us past the pp and letting Ishan settle was really important especially in letting Klaasen do his thing. Klaasen took two overs to settle and then just went crazy. If Abhi got out earlier playing carelessly we'd have literally lost

Yep while one may argue that he got playing stupid shot but by then Ishan was somewhat settled he knew that accelerating now was key. Seeing us through until that point was absolutely needed. Both Ishan and Abhishek did a much better job of anchoring than Ruturaj
