South Africa vs India 2018: 6th ODI, Hits and Misses

#2 Miss: Indian opening batsmen

Both the openers were dismissed cheaply on the day

One of the biggest positives for India in this series so far has been the fact that two of their top three batsmen performed in every game of the same. However, they forgot to walk along those lines in Centurion, as both Rohit Sharma and Dhawan walked back to the pavilion without crunching big numbers.

Rohit, who scored a long-due hundred in South Africa in the fifth ODI, was the first Indian wicket to fall in the sixth game. The right-handed batsman was dismissed by Lungi Ngidi in the 4th over of the chase. He scored 15 runs off 13 deliveries.

Dhawan, on the other hand, tried to battle it out longer than his partner. He survived for 34 deliveries, but ultimately fell to the trap the hosts set for him. Even he could add just 18 runs to the Indian scoreboard.
