🏏India vs West Indies: 2nd ODI at Kensington Oval - 29/07/2023🏏 - Page 8

IND: 20-0 after 5 overs

Rahul: Ishan Kishan and his inability to rotate strike - a never ending love story

5.5 Jayden Seales to Ishan Kishan, no run, what was Ishan Kishan doing there. Guides this length ball straight back to Jayden Seales and starts running. Jayden Seales does well to grab the ball in his right hand by stretching across and has a shy at Kishan's end, fails to hit though

Bachgaya Ishan

5.6 Jayden Seales to Ishan Kishan, no run, in the air, but safe. Kishan getting a bit impatient. Plays this on the rise and chips it towards mid-off as the ball drops just in front of the fielder who was charging in towards the ball

Again saved

IND: 24-0 after 6 overs

6.3 Mayers to Shubman Gill, wide, swinging down the leg-side and it's a wide ball

6.5 Mayers to Ishan Kishan, FOUR, pitched up by the bowler and Ishan Kishan stands tall and drills this through mid-on for four runs

IND: 35-0 after 7 overs

West Indies opt to bowl

IND - 35/0 (7)

Udit Gor: Ravi Shastri had spoken during the IPL of giving both Rohit and Virat a bit of a mental break after the WTC Final, so in a way this series serves as both: a break for the two pros and for trying out new combinations and the bench strength.
