Champions Trophy: Young And Kane Helped Me Get Through The Ebbs And Flows, Says Ravindra
Only Rohit Sharma: After top-scoring with 108 off 101 balls in New Zealand’s mammoth score of 362/6 in 50 overs of their second semi-final against South Africa, left-handed opener Rachin Ravindra credited Will Young and Kane Williamson for helping him sail through the various turns in the innings.
At the Gaddafi Stadium on Wednesday, Ravindra notched up his fifth ODI century – all of them coming in ICC events, and second in this competition. He has now become the only men’s batter to score his first five ODI centuries in ICC tournaments, as New Zealand posted the highest score in history of the Champions Trophy.
“I guess it was the partnerships, Young and Kane helped me get through the ebbs and flows. At times my timing wasn’t so great, but Kane helped me get through that phase. He's a classy player (Kane), fun to watch him bat from the other end. At times, the ball held a bit and the bowlers also bowled good lines and lengths,” said Ravindra in a mid-innings chat with the broadcasters.
