Watch: Virat Kohli smashes no-look six to Corbin Bosch during IND vs SA 3rd ODI

Virat Kohli has been in tremendous form during the three-match ODI series against South Africa at home. He had already celebrated two centuries in the first couple of clashes in Ranchi and Raipur before finding his feet at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam in the 271-run chase post the strong start of a 155-run opening partnership between Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma.

Virat Kohli didn’t let the Protea bowlers come to the party after the wicket as he started to nail the bowlers left, right, and centre. He got forward to smash the left-arm pace of Marco Jansen for a boundary through covers before playing a no-look six over the cow corner against the right-arm pacer, Corbin Bosch.

Bosch went for a length delivery to the Delhi-born, who got forward and lifted his back of a length on the rise as the ball flew over the wide long-on region for a six. He didn’t even look where the ball went, instead staring down at the bowler. The crowd lost its marbles at the ground.

Meanwhile, Yashasvi Jaiswal, who couldn’t put a good score besides his name at the start of the series and failed in both Ranchi and Raipur, celebrated his maiden century in the ODI format. He joined the likes of Suresh Raina, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Kohli, and Shubman Gill among the Indian batters to register centuries across the three formats.

Jaiswal remained unbeaten on 116 runs by the end of the chase at a strike rate of 102.74 with the help of seven boundaries and three sixes. On the other hand, Kohli drilled a fine unbeaten knock of 65 runs in just 45 balls at a strike rate of 144.44 with the help of six boundaries and three sixes to complete India’s chase by nine wickets.

South Africa, earlier in the afternoon, got bundled out for 270 runs in the first innings as Quinton de Kock smashed a fine century. Both Prasidh Krishna and Kuldeep Yadav picked up four wickets each in the innings.
