The venue changed, the opposition changed, but the communication between the two batsmen didn’t. India, after being invited to bat first, got off to a good start courtesy Dhawan. But he was sent packing by Kagiso Rabada in the eighth over. Kohli and Rohit joined hands and continued to make merry of the South African bowlers. Both added 105 runs for the second wicket when the madness started.

In the 26th over, Rohit hit the ball to the point fielder and looked hesitant for a single during which Virat Kohli had come down a long way. There was no chance he could’ve returned to the crease as JP Duminy completed the formalities of running him out. Kohli scored 36 runs while he was there but the Hitman returned to the form amazingly well and notched up his 17th ODI ton. India, in the end, went on to score 275 runs in their 50 overs.
