New Delhi: The second day’s play between India and Bangladesh at Hyderabad started with Virat Kohli and Ajinkya Rahane on crease. While Rahane fell short of clinching his century, Kohli easily crossed the 150-run mark and was batting on 175 after 115 overs of play.
Producing one of the finest displays with the bat, the Indian captain played some exquisite shots against the Bangladeshi bowlers including a straight drive that will remind all Indian cricket fans of the ‘good-old’ Sachin Tendulkar days. (IND vs BAN – Live Blog)
