Gill's 84 leads India to rain-affected ODI win over Afghanistan
DHARAMSHALA, India (AP) --- Skipper Shubman Gill scored 84 not out off 66 balls
for India to beat Afghanistan by seven wickets in a rain-affected one-day
international on Saturday.
Rain delayed the toss for more than four hours and reduced the match to 25
overs per side. India won with 13 balls to spare at 193-5 in reply to
Afghanistan's 194 all out.
Gill hit 11 fours and two sixes with help from Lokesh Rahul, 39 not out off 19
balls.
Rahmanullah Gurbaz's 102 off 51 balls went in vain, though he helped
Afghanistan recover from 54-7.
India debutants did well; pacer Gurnoor Brar took 3-27 and left-arm spinner
Harsh Dubey 3-47.
India leads the first bilateral ODI cricket series between the teams 1-0.
Lucknow hosts the second ODI on Wednesday and Chennai hosts the third and last
match on June 20.
