3rd ODI: Gill, Iyer, Kohli Fuel India To Their Highest Total In Ahmedabad Against England
Narendra Modi Stadium: Opener Shubman Gill’s (112) seventh century in the 50-over game alongside crucial half-centuries by Shreyas Iyer (78) and Virat Kohli (52) helped India post a massive total of 356, their highest-ever total at the venue, against England in the third and final ODI being played at the Narendra Modi Stadium here on Wednesday.
England skipper Jos Buttler completed a hat-trick by winning the toss for the third straight game and elected to field first, after having opted to bat in the first two games.
Rohit Sharma (1), after hitting a stellar century in the second game, was dismissed by Mark Wood off his first delivery. A good length delivery, angling into off-stump, forced the Indian skipper to play at it and found the outside edge which was comfortably caught by a diving Phil Salt. Gill and Virat Kohli (52) put on a steady 116-run stand to steady the ship for India. Both batters took their time to get set and carefully rotated the strike in the opening overs.
