Ruturaj has blown up and took the best out of the opportunity he received tonight despite failing to score in the last two games.
Ruturaj Gaikwad started well and did not stop to rotate strikes as it gave him the confidence to carry on and India’s backing up on the young talent has helped the fans to witness a surprising over.
The fastest bowler in Visakhapatnam, Anrich Nortje got smashed for five consecutive fours by Ruturaj Gaikwad.
The first four were initiated with a brilliant-cut shot, followed by the second through a step and pull shot. The third shot technically should have been the runs through “bye” but the runs were bagged in Ruturaj’s score. The cameras confirmed that the four were hit by the helmet. The next delivery was bowled a half-volley on the pads which was perfectly driven by Rutu.
Ruturaj intended to smash yet another boundary but failed to do so and the last ball resulted in a dot ball.
