India is off to a flier start against the Netherlands in the ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru on Sunday. Indian skipper Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill smashed 91 runs in the first mandatory powerplay providing a solid foundation as India will be eyeing for big total. India's youth sensation Shubman Gill scored his third fifty from 7 innings in the World Cup. 

However, Gill was dismissed soon after reaching his half-century mark as he played a pull shot and got caught by Nidamanuru at the boundary. Skipper Rohit Sharma also reached his half century. He also became the player to hit the most sixes in a calendar year in ODIs. India has scored 119 runs in 15 overs.
