Johannesburg – Wicket keeper batsman Jitesh Sharma failed to shine in the third Twenty20 against South Africa. In the third match in Johannesburg, Jitesh Sharma got out after scoring only four runs in four balls. While trying to get a boundary in the last over, the player was hit wicket. Jitesh Sharma’s attempt was to get a boundary on the fifth ball of the 20th over bowled by Lizard Williams. The ball crossed the boundary but the umpire allowed it out.
The reason was that the back of the player’s shoes hit the wicket. Jitesh Sharma’s strange comeback right after Ravindra Jadeja’s dismissal also shocked the fans. In the second Twenty20 of the series, the player was out for just one run in three balls. With the Twenty20 World Cup just around the corner, the BCCI dropped Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson and gave 30-year-old Jitesh Sharma a chance in the team.
The player who has played seven matches in Twenty20 has managed to score only 69 runs so far. India leveled the series 1-1 with a huge win in the third Twenty20. Captain Surya Kumar Yadav’s blistering century (100 off 56 balls) led India to a 106-run victory in the third T20I. Batting first, India posted an excellent score of 201 runs and bowled out South Africa for 95 runs.
Spinner Kuldeep Yadav who took 5 wickets conceding only 17 runs was India’s bowling hero. Score: India- 201 for 7 in 20 overs. South Africa- 95 in 13.5 overs. The three-match series ended in a draw (1-1). The first match was abandoned due to rain. The ODI series between the two teams will start on the 17th.
