Rohit slams 23-ball 50; India off to a flier

January 29, 2020 13:08

India 82-0 (8 ovs) vs NZ | Scorecard

Leg-spinner Ish Sodhi comes into the attack. Rahul clips the first ball on the leg side for one and Rohit hits the next ball through the off-side where the point fielder puts in the dive to stop the single.

Singles off the next three balls before Rahul joins in the party as he lofts Sodhi straight down the ground for a boundary.

Santner is back into the attack. Rohit blocks the first ball watchfully before he sweeps the next uppishly as it falls just short of the fielder at deep square leg.

A single to Rahul before Rohit top edges the sweep which goes over the wicketkeeper for a couple followed by a single off the last ball.

India set for a huge score as they reach 82 for no loss in eight overs.

Rohit has stroked his way to 56 from 31 balls, while Rahul without doing much has raced his way to 26 from 17 balls.
