Prasidh prasidh

MA Chidambaram Stadium: Fast bowler Prasidh Krishna’s maiden five‑wicket haul and Yashasvi Jaiswal’s fluent unbeaten century powered India to a commanding nine-wicket victory over Afghanistan in the third ODI and sealed a 3‑0 series sweep at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Saturday.

Prasidh’s sensational figures of 5-23 in nine overs, including taking four scalps in the Power-play with his pace, bounce, and swing, helped India bowl out Afghanistan for 218 in 44.2 overs, despite skipper Hashmatullah Shahidi hitting 102 – his first ODI century.

In reply, Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma, who hit 79, shared a 170-run opening partnership, with five of them being penalty runs. Jaiswal then marched forward to hit an unbeaten 110 off 86 balls, hitting his second ODI ton in three innings, laced with 14 boundaries and three sixes, as India wrapped up the chase with 128 balls remaining. The win also meant India got their first series victory under Shubman Gill as ODI captain.
