Dhawan, Rohit hit 50s; India in control

September 23, 2018 22:40

India 119-0 (22 ovs) vs Pak 237-7 | Scorecard

Rohit punches Hasan through the covers for two runs before the India captain attempts a huge heave to a wide delivery but is beaten by the change of pace.

He sensibly runs the last ball down the thirdman for a single to keep strike.

Amir comes back and he also makes the mistake of bowling short to Dhawan. The left-hander pulls it comfortably off the front foot through midwicket for a four, his 10th of the innings, to race to 66 from 64 balls.

Amir drops short again and this time Dhawan bails out of the pull shot after realising the change in pace before he takes a quick single to mid-on.

Rohit clips the fifth ball with soft hands to deep square leg for two runs to complete his fifty from 65 balls.

The last ball is sweetly timed through the covers for one as India reach 119 for no loss in 22 overs.
