India scored 171 runs in the first innings courtesy of Rohit Sharma's half-century, and Suryakumar Yadav's 47 runs off 37 balls. Sharma went on to hit two huge sixes along with six boundaries, while SKY hit two sixes and four boundaries. Both batters stayed in the middle, which helped India reach a good total. If the bowlers do their part, India will be able to qualify for the finals and face South Africa for the first time in the tournament.

'The pitch is staying low and slow' - Liam Livingstone on Guyana's pitch after first innings
After the first innings, England's all-rounder Liam Livingstone opened up about the Providence Stadium, Guyana's pitch, which had become slow due to the constant rain from the past few days. Moreover, England did well in stopping India from getting a better score than 171 runs. While India seemed to be some 10-15 runs short, the bowlers will leave no chance to disappoint the crowd.
"The pitch is staying low and slow, we knew that let's see how it does in the second innings, hopefully, we'll chase it down, have a lot of firepower in that dressing room, I hope we'll go past the line," said Liam Livingstone.
