Rohit, Rahane take India past 100

October 19, 2019 12:37

India 111-3 (29 ovs) vs SA | Scorecard

Short again from Linde as Rahane cuts it for a couple and then easily plays out the rest of the over.

Rabada still making things happen. He gets the ball to move away every so slightly as Rohit tries to defend but is beaten and the next ball also moves away quite a bit, which is left alone.

Rabada then bowls another cracking leg cutter close to the off-stump as Rohit is forced to poke and is beaten but the pacer has overstepped, before the India opener defends the rest of the over with caution.

Linde bowling it short as Rahane cuts it for one and Rohit does the same two balls later for another single. Another half-tracker from the spinner as Rahane rocks back and punches it through the covers for a four.

Another brilliant delivery as he bowls full and gets it to move away as Rohit gets the edge which flies to the right of the second slip fielder for a four as India go past the 100-run mark, in the 29th over.

A single to Rohit before Rahane continues his flurry of boundaries. This time Rabada strays on the pads as Rahane glances it fine for a four, to race to 36 from 39 balls, having hit six fours.

Another freebie from Rabada, full and on the pads, as Rahane clips it through square leg for another boundary to race to 40.

Rahane was on 11 from 20 balls at the start of the session, but since then has stroked 29 from 22 balls with the help of six fours.
