2nd ODI: KL Rahul's Magnificent 112 Not Out Carries India To 284/7 Against NZ
Niranjan Shah Stadium: Wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul struck a magnificent unbeaten 112 off 92 balls as India posted 284/7 in the second ODI against New Zealand at the Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot on Wednesday.
As to bat first by New Zealand skipper Michael Bracewell, India’s openers overcame a testing new-ball spell from Kyle Jamieson to reach 57 for no loss at the end of the first Power-play. While Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli couldn’t do much, Shubman Gill kept the scoreboard moving by raising a 47-ball half-century.
But Jamieson's dismissal of Gill led to India slipping from 99/1 to 118/4 on a two-paced pitch. Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja rebuilt via a cautious 73-run stand for the fifth wicket before the former shifted gears to up the tempo and register his eighth ODI hundred, laced with 11 fours and a six. His heroics ensured India posted a competitive total at a venue where all four previous ODIs have been won by sides batting first.
