After a great win against the host South Africa at Johannesburg, team India cricketers were having a good time ahead of the six-match ODI series.
India beat South Africa by 63 runs in the third and final Test of the Freedom Series to finish 2-1. Indian batsmen showed character in tough conditions to post a target of 240 in the fourth innings. Ajinkya Rahane, who was dropped from the first two Test showed his mettle scoring a gritty 48 runs in front of a top quality bowling attack well supported by Virat Kohli’s 41.
Indian bowlers came in good in the last two sessions of Day 4 to knock South Africa off after Dean Elgar (86), and Hashim Amla (52) looked solid to take South Africa home. Mohammad Shami was the pick of the bowlers picking a fifer in the second innings.
After some intense cricket for the past three weeks, Indian players finally got some time off to enjoy before the fifty overs series kick off.
Young all-rounder Hardik Pandya took to Twitter to post a picture where the likes of KL Rahul, MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli, and Yuzvendra Chahal was spotted having a good time.
