The Toss That Took 21 Tries: India’s Longest ODI Jinx Finally Snapped
Even before the start of India vs South Africa 3rd ODI at Vizag, India captain KL Rahul was seen to be very happy, laughing and punching the air in delight. The India team dug out was also elated. Occasion: India ended its toss losing spree after 21 attempts in ODIs. The last toss India had won was during the World Cup 2023 semi-final against New Zealand at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, on November 15, 2023.
The question is not the impact the loss of toss in 20 ODIs had on the results for India, but the missing art of winning the toss, for India captains Rohit Sharma (12), KL Rahul (5) and Shubman Gill (3). India won 12 of the 20 ODIs during this streak alongside a tie.
