However, on the day, the Baroda all-rounder could neither make an impact with the bat or with the ball.
In the former case, he did not get an opportunity as the rains arrived with the openers still out in the middle, while in the latter case, he gave away 9 runs in the only over that he bowled.
Like the case with Praveen Kumar, this turned out to be his last game as well for India in the shortest format.
