3rd ODI: Prasidhs Five-for, Jaiswals Century Propel India To 3-0 Sweep Against Afghanistan

MA Chidambaram Stadium: Fast bowler Prasidh Krishnas maiden fivewicket haul and Yashasvi Jaiswals fluent unbeaten century powered India to a commanding nine-wicket victory over Afghanistan in the third ODI and sealed a 30 series sweep at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Saturday. Prasidhs sensational figures of 5-23 in nine overs, including taking four scalps in the Power-play with his pace, bounce, and swing, helped India bowl out Afghanistan for 218 in 44.2 overs, despite skipper Hashmatullah Shahidi hitting 102 his first ODI century. In reply, Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma, who hit 79, shared a 170-run opening partnership, with five of them being penalty runs. Jaiswal then marched forward to hit an unbeaten 110 off 86 balls, hitting his second ODI ton in three innings, laced with 14 boundaries and three sixes, as India wrapped up the chase with 128 balls remaining. The win also meant India got their first series victory under Shubman Gill as ODI captain. India began positively as Rohit and Jaiswal negotiated the early movement and found boundaries through crisp drives and cuts to reach 42 without loss at the end of the fifth over. Jaiswal pressed on the accelerator pedal by hitting a flurry of boundaries off Fareed Ahmad in the seventh over. More strike rotation and boundaries ensured that India reached 86 without loss at the end of the Power-play. With Afghanistan not posing many questions, Jaiswal and Rohit continued to press, with the former reaching his fifty off 38 balls in the 11th over with a confident drive to longoff. Rohit, too, found rhythm and brought up his own fifty off 47 balls in the 16th over. Afghanistan introduced spinners Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi to stem the flow, but Rohit and Jaiswal rotated strike and punished loose balls, despite a mix-up almost ending in a run-out. Jaiswals timing and placement were particularly impressive, while Rohit provided the customary support at the other end after enduring a scratchy start. Nabi struck in the 23rd over by removing Rohit for a wellmade 79 after he pulled to deep mid-wicket. It brought Shreyas Iyer to the crease, even as Jaiswal continued to dominate. With the required rate negligible, Jaiswal and Iyer rotated the strike and punished anything short. Afghanistans bowlers toiled hard for breakthroughs, but fielding lapses and misfields cost them. As the finish loomed, Jaiswal shifted gears and got his century off 83 balls with a fantastic inside-out drive over extra cover off Nabi, before sweeping and lofting the final delivery over longon to end the chase in emphatic fashion. Nabi struck in the 23rd over by removing Rohit for a wellmade 79 after he pulled to deep mid-wicket. It brought Shreyas Iyer to the crease, even as Jaiswal continued to dominate. With the required rate negligible, Jaiswal and Iyer rotated the strike and punished anything short.

It's always hot in India in this month. Wicket also looks good. It's dry and hard. Hopefully we have a good start in the batting. In last two games we missed some areas and didn't play the way we have played in the past. Hopefully we recover today and have good partnerships and bowl in the right areas, he said.
