3rd ODI: Team Looked At Me More Proudly After Winning The Toss, Says K.L. Rahul As India Beat SA To Win Series 2-1
As India: As India thrashed South Africa by nine wickets in the series-deciding third and final ODI match to win the series 2-1, India's stand-in skipper K.L. Rahul said he and his teammates were happier with him for winning the toss after 20-odd games.
Rahul lost the toss in the first two matches of this series, and India had to bowl second in both the matches, their bowlers hampered by the copious amount of dew that drenches the field at this time of the year, making bowling with the wet ball a lot difficult. The hosts won the first match by 17 runs in Ranchi and lost the second by four wickets in Raipur.
Winning the toss on Saturday meant Rahul chose to bowl first in Visakhapatnam, and the Indian bowlers excelled, operating with a dry ball, dismissing South Africa for 270, whereas the first two matches produced scores close to 350.
