KL Rahul Scores Unbeaten 129, Equals Dhoni and Dravid Records in Third ODI
KL Rahul scored an unbeaten 129 off 87 balls in India's third ODI against the West Indies, anchoring the innings after early wickets. His century marked his ninth ODI hundred and equaled MS Dhoni's record for most centuries at No. 5 for India, achieved in fewer innings. Rahul also matched Rahul Dravid's 27-year-old record as the second Indian wicketkeeper-batter to score an ODI century against the West Indies. His innings helped India post a strong total despite a shaky start.
