INDORE, India: Powered by centuries from openers Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill, India beat New Zealand by 90 runs on Tuesday to win the third one-day international and sweep the series.
Skipper Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill hit attacking centuries to help India sweep the one-day international series against New Zealand with a 90-run victory in the third match on Tuesday.
Bawa, one of the standout performers in India's triumphant U-19 World Cup campaign early this year, showed why he is rated highly. The 19-year-old, who made his India 'A' debut in the second game of the series and took 1-14, got onto the wicket-takers' board by dismissing Mark Chapman (11) --- caught behind by Sanju Samson --- in his first spell. Others to contribute for the hosts include leg-spinner Rahul Chahar (2-39) and Kuldeep Yadav (2-29).
Kuldeep Yadav took a sensational hat-trick, helping India A beat New Zealand A in the second unofficial One-day match at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. With New Zealand A on 219 for 7, Kuldeep dismissed Logan Van Beek, Joe Walker and Jacob Duffy in the 47th over as the visitors were bowled out. Van Beek was caught at point by Prithvi Shaw, while Walker edged one behind to India A skipper Sanju Samson. Kuldeep then castles Duffy to complete his hat-trick.
Left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav's sensational hat-trick and Prithvi Shaw's quick-fire half century (77) set up a four-wicket win for India 'A' against New Zealand 'A' in the second unofficial ODI to clinch the three-match series on Sunday. Electing to bat, New Zealand 'A' were all out for 219 in 47 overs as Kuldeep picked up the last four wickets, including the hat-trick. From 210 for 6, the visiting team collapsed to 219 all out as Kuldeep ran riot. After dismissing Sean Solia for his first scalp of the match, Yadav picked up the wickets of Logan Van Beek, Joe Walker and Jacob Duffy to complete a memorable hat-trick.
Kuldeep may not be part of India's World Cup T20 squad but the 27-year-old showed his potential with the ball. Brought into the attack in the 14th over, Kuldeep kept bowling in the right areas. However, success came his way in the final spell.
Prithvi Shaw's 77 runs off 48 deliveries and Ruturaj Gaikwad's 30 runs helped India A, chasing 220, put up an opening stand of 82 runs for the Indian team. For Kiwis Logan van Beek scalped three conceding 46 runs while Jacob Duffy bagged two wickets. India A led the three-match series 2-0.
Yadav bagged the wickets of Logan van Beek, Joe Walker and Jacob Duffy in the 47th over of the innings. In the match, Yadav picked a four-wicket haul while taking a hat trick. Kuldeep took a hat-trick in the 47th over of the innings.
