Rohit, Iyer steady India after early wkts

December 15, 2019 14:48

India 73-2 (16 ovs) vs WI | Scorecard

Medium pacer Keemo Paul comes into the attack as he replaces Holder, who bowled six overs for 26 runs in his first spell.

Iyer steers the first ball down to thirdman for one before Rohit tries the pull shot but gets hit on the bottom of the bat as it goes through to the keeper.

Rohit runs the fourth ball down to thirdman for one and Iyer slaps the fifth ball past point for a couple of runs.

In the next over, Rohit sweeps leg-spinner Walsh through square leg for a four and picks a single next ball.

Iyer then gets the edge which goes through the vacant slip region for another four and then takes a single to long-off from the last ball of the over.

Rohit and Iyer keep the scoreboard ticking with some intelligent batting as they pick five singles off Paul's second over.

The Mumbai duo of Iyer and Rohit have steadied the ship after Cottrell's double strike early on as they rally India to 73 for two in 16 overs.
