What went wrong as India stumbled in second ODI against South Africa?
New Delhi: Virat Kohli‘s 53rd ODI century and Ruturaj Gaikwad‘s first ton in the format should have been enough to put Men in Blue in control of the second ODI in Raipur. Their 195-run partnership was classy, calculated and exactly the sort of platform teams dream of when batting first. KL Rahul chipped in with a brisk finish and 358 for five looked like the kind of total that would usually bury the opposition.
Instead, South Africa chased it down with four wickets and four balls to spare, pulling the series level and leaving India........
