After Tilak hit two consecutive boundaries on two balls, it became clear for Archer that he would not be able to stop the Indian batsman with his bowling. His luck came in favour on the third ball, but on the fourth ball, Tilak hit another big shot and scored a six.

Since the first three balls did not work, he bowled the fourth ball a bit slow, where he managed to escape. Tilak took one run on that ball and rotated the strike to Suryakumar Yadav. However, Suryakumar could not score any score any runs on last ball.
