2nd ODI: Gaikwad, Kohli Centuries, Rahul’s Unbeaten 66 Lift India To 358/5 Against South Africa
Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International: Riding on scintillating centuries by Virat Kohli and Ruturaj Gaikwad, along with captain KL Rahul’s unbeaten 66, India posted a massive 358/5 in their 50 overs against South Africa in the second ODI at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur on Wednesday.
Gaikwad was superb in his play against spinners to go from a fifty in 52 balls to reach his first-ever ODI century off 77 deliveries and eventually finished with 105 off 83 deliveries. Kohli, meanwhile, continued from where he left off in Ranchi by smashing 102 off 93 balls – his second consecutive hundred in the series and took his tally to 53 ODI centuries and 84 overall in international cricket.
After the duo had a wonderful 195-run stand for the third wicket, Rahul ensured India closed strongly by racing to a 33-ball half-century and remaining unbeaten on 66 off 43 balls. He was given a reprieve on 44 by Matthew Breetzke, and the extra runs from that miss could prove costly for South Africa.
