That the 50-overs-a-side match lasted just 44.1 overs tells the story of India’s total dominance.

India, fielding a second-string side, found four heroes. Fast bowlers Arshdeep Singh (5/37) and Avesh Khan (4/27) first scythed through the South African batting line-up, before debutant opener Sai Sudharshan (55 not out) and Shreyas Iyer (52) easily chased down the 117-run target.

Opting to bat first, South Africa ran into a red-hot Arshdeep. The left-arm seamer, who hadn’t taken a single wicket in three previous ODIs, grabbed two in his very first over on Sunday. He castled Reeza Hendricks and had Rassie van der Dussen leg-before wicket for ducks.

A partnership looked to be developing, before Arshdeep sent back Tony de Zorzi and Heinrich Klaasen.

There was no respite for the Proteas as Avesh then came into the picture and bagged four victims to register his best figures as well.

India lost Ruturaj Gaikwad in the fifth over, but Sudharshan and Iyer hit classy half-centuries to coast to victory with more than 33 overs to spare.

Brief scores: South Africa 116 all out in 27.3 overs (Andile Phehlukwayo 33; Arshdeep Singh 5/37, Avesh Khan 4/27). India 117/2 in 16.4 overs (Sai Sudharshan 55 not out, Shreyas Iyer 52).

Result: India won by 8 wickets.

Man of the Match: Arshdeep Singh

Next game: 2nd ODI at Gqeberha on Dec 19.

]]> Asia Cup 2023: Another ODI milestone awaits Virat Kohli https://publictrustofindia.com/2023/08/27/asia-cup-2023-another-odi-milestone-awaits-virat-kohli/ Sun, 27 Aug 2023 14:05:24 +0000 https://publictrustofindia.com/?p=3566 Bhubaneswar: Team India’s premier batsman Virat Kohli has already created many milestones in international cricket. The star batsman is once again set to create history. Kohli has the opportunity to reach yet another milestone in the upcoming edition of Asia Cup 2023.

Kohli needs 102 more runs to complete 13,000 ODI runs and join the elite list with the likes of Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar and former Australian great Ricky Ponting.

If Kohli manages to score 102 runs in the mega event, he will become the fifth international and second Indian batter to reach this milestone.

Sachin, Kumar Sangakkara, Ricky Ponting, and Sanath Jayasuriya are the only other batters to reach this milestone. Apart from that, Kohli will also have the opportunity to become the fastest batter to reach this milestone. He will be surpassing Sachin in the process.

Currently, the record is held by legendary Tendulkar who reached the milestone in 321 innings. Virat has around 55 more innings to break this record.

After a well deserved break, Kohli will return to action for India in Asia Cup 2023 to be co-hosted by both Pakistan and Sri Lanka from August 30 to September 17. India will lock horns with arch-rivals Pakistan in the group stage on September 2.
