Indian Thought Latest News & Views
New Delhi: The second match of the three-match ODI series is being played between India and South Africa. In this match, Indian captain KL Rahul has won the toss and decided to bat first. The team started very badly when opener Shikhar Dhawan and star batsman Virat Kohli were dismissed cheaply and returned to the pavilion. There came a moment in the match when the Indian audience pressed their fingers under their teeth.
This big incident happened in the match
Very poor fielding was seen in the match from South Africa. India’s superstar batsman Rishabh Pant hit the ball off Keshav Maharaj, but he ran too late to take the run. The ball went straight to the African captain Temba Bavuma, whom he threw very quickly, but Keshav Maharaj could not catch the ball properly and he did not have any fielder in the backup. In such a situation, the Indian batsmen were saved from being run out. Captain KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant had reached the same side of the crease. There was a great lack of coordination between the two.
Rahul runs long race
KL Rahul could have been out, but luck favored him and he ran fast to reach the other side of the crease. Rahul has got two lives in this match. Earlier, when KL Rahul was playing after scoring 8 runs, South African player Yaneman had dropped his catch, but even after this he could not convert a good start into a big innings.
Pant-Rahul hit fifty
Captain KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant have scored brilliant fifties in the second match against South Africa. KL Rahul played an innings of 55 runs from 79 balls. At the same time, star wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant has missed his century. He scored 85 runs in 71 balls, which included 10 fours and two sixes. Virat Kohli returned to the pavilion without scoring any runs. At the same time, Shikhar Dhawan also could not play any big innings.
