Brilliant batting display by India

Anushka was passionately cheering for every shot Kohli played during his knock. As he achieved a historic milestone, hitting his 50th ODI century and surpassing the former legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, Anushka showered him with flying kisses, adding a touch of romance to the cricketing fervor.

Talking about the match, India, choosing to bat first, dominated from the beginning. Despite a brief respite from a stunning catch by Kane Williamson, India’s captain Rohit Sharma’s quick 47-run contribution set the tone for a big total. Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli then formed a dynamic partnership, with Gill’s aggressive play halted at 79 due to the Mumbai heat. 

This setback led to a monumental collaboration between Kohli and Shreyas Iyer. The duo’s seamless synergy propelled them to centuries, with Kohli achieving his historic 50th ODI hundred, surpassing Tendulkar. Iyer’s powerful innings, featuring 105 runs, and Rahul’s contributions led India to an imposing 397-run total, captivating fans.
