Rabada gives South Africa a good start

October 19, 2019 10:34

India 29-2 (13 ovs) vs SA | Scorecard

Rabada on fire at the moment! Rohit is beaten by the full incoming delivery as he looks plumb in front and is given out leg before wicket immediately by the umpire.

But Rohit decides to review it and rightly so as he had got an inside edge on to the pads as he survives.

Rohit then misses out on a full toss as he gently clips it to midwicket and then makes a late decision to leave one outside the off-stump.

The last ball is beauty as Rabada gets the ball to move and bounce and Rohit is completely squared up as he defends.

Nortje misses his line and he stays down the leg side and Kohli manages to glance it fine for a four to get off the mark.

The pacer repeats the error a few deliveries as Kohli helps himself to another boundary through fine leg.

A fired-up Rabada bowling his seventh over on the trot in his first spell. Rohit gets an edge which goes on the bounce to gully and he attempts the pull shot next ball but gets hit on the gloves and it goes fine on the leg side for a four.

At the first drinks break, India have reached 29 for two in 13 overs, with Rohit on 11 and Kohli on eight.

Rabada gave South Africa a good start as he took two for 15 in seven overs, including the wicket of Agarwal and Pujara.
