Another ‘Ro-Ko’ show on cards in series decider

After Test debacle, Men in Blue look to avoid another embarrassing series loss to South Africa

- PRESS TRUST OF INDIA

The spotlight, like most times, will be on Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma but the pressure would also be on India’s younger crop when the home side looks to avoid another embarrassing series loss to South Africa in the must-win third and final ODI here Saturday.

A Raipur-like fumbling by India will see South Africa bag the ODI series too, closely after their 2-0 triumph in Tests.

Consecutive series defeats are unthinkable for India in the current scenario, particularly when the dressing room is perceived to be pulling in different directions.

A victory in this rubber can quell the chatter around the team for a while, and for that, Kohli and Rohit have to do the heavy lifting once again.
