Karthik, Jadhav steady India

September 25, 2018 23:49

India 190-4 (35 ovs) vs Afg 252-8 | Scorecard

Part-timer Ahmadi comes back for a second spell. Karthik and Kedar Jadhav do well to pick the spinner for five singles in the 32nd over.

Rashid comes back as Afghanistan look for a wicket or two to put themselves in control.

Karthik is watchful against the leg-spinner, playing with caution with four dot balls in a row with a wide in between before he pulls the fifth ball to deep midwicket and Jadhav turns the last ball to square leg for one.

Mujeeb, who has five overs in hand, is called back into the attack. He starts off with a wide before Jadhav gets a single on the leg side and Karthik picks one off the fifth ball to deep point.

Jadhav taps Rashid carefully on the off-side for one and Karthik steers the fifth ball fine on the off-side for a four and pulls the last ball to long-on for one.
