Centuries by both the Indian openers Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul has set the tone for India to post monumental target in the second ODI against West Indies at Vishakhapatnam on Wednesday.

Providing solid start for the team, Rahul and Rohit first posted their respective half centuries and later converted it into solid centuries.

KL Rahul however fell immediately after finishing his century. He scored 102 from 104 deliveries. He departed in the 37th over. Skipper Virat Kohli who joined Rohit in the middle after Rahul’s dismissal, had a rare failure with the bat as he departed for a first ball duck off Kieron Pollard’s bowling in 38th over.

Rohit Sharma has held fortes on the other hand and is joined by Shreyas Iyed in the middle. At the end of 38 overs, India’s scorecard read 235-2 with Rohit batting well on 121 off 121 deliveries.
