AT some level, these are the kind of ODIs teams need when there is a World Cup looming. Who are the batters capable of getting dirty runs? Who are the seamers possessing the skillset to exploit the swing on offer? It’s all about information gathering now and the think-tank will have had a few of those answers on Friday.
In conditions where seamers had joy, both Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav failed their audition but KL Rahul, playing as a keeper, made his case no harm. The other big winner from the opening game at Mumbai was Ravindra Jadeja, who further enhanced his reputation as one of India’s premier spin-bowling all-rounders. He picked up key wickets with the ball in the middle overs (the first time he picked two wickets in an ODI in over three years) before forming the spine of the run-chase with an unbeaten match-winning partnership of 108 with Rahul.
