Kohli hits half-century to lead India's fine recovery

January 24, 2018 17:17

India 95-2 (42 ovs) vs SA | Scorecard

Ngidi tries the yorker but Pujara keeps it out and continues to defend solidly. He has looked much better after the lunch interval as India close in on the 100-run mark.

South Africa will be frustrated and they have no one else but themselves to be blamed.

Kohli has been dropped twice so far, while they failed to take the DRS for a leg before wicket appeal against Pujara, which would have gone in their favour.

Rabada tries a short ball at Kohli, who goes for the pull shot but is beaten down the leg side.

Two balls later, Kohli connects with the pull, smashing it square on the leg side to bring up his fifty in grand style, from 101 balls.
