Kohli, Rahane take India past 100

June 19, 2021 19:21

India 106-3 (50 ovs) vs NZ | Scorecard

Kohli taps Jamieson on the off-side for a quick single and Rahane pushes the next to point but offers no shot to a wide delivery.

Rahane is happy to leave the wide delivery before he ducks under a bouncer.

Kohli opens the face of the bat and steers Boult behind point for three runs.

Overpitched from Boult as Rahane drills it through the covers for a couple of runs and defends the next on the off-side and offers no shot to the next ball.

Southee is back into the attack in place of Jamieson. He has so far failed to find his rhythm. He bowls a beauty to beat Kohli, who looks to defend but is beaten by the perfectly-pitched outswinger.

Kohli gets the next ball off the middle into the covers and inside edges the last ball on to the pads.

India are 106/3 in 50 overs, with Kohli on 27 and Rahane on eight. They continue to bat solidly and grind out the Kiwi bowlers in tough conditions.
