Game Desk: The Indian cricket team performed brilliantly and defeated Afghanistan by a huge margin of 170 runs in the second ODI match at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in the capital Lucknow. With this resounding victory, India has achieved an unassailable 2-0 lead in this 3-match series.
Batting first in the match, the Indian team had set a huge target of 403 runs on the board. Captain Shubman Gill and wicketkeeper batsman Ishan Kishan were the architects of this huge innings of India. While playing the captaincy innings, Shubman Gill gave class to the Afghan bowlers and scored a brilliant 154 runs. At the same time, while batting explosively at the other end, Ishan Kishan played a brilliant inning of 125 runs in just 79 balls. During his century innings, Kishan hit shots all over the field and hit a total of 7 sixes and 14 sky-high fours.

The entire Afghan team was all out for just 232 runs. Presenting an example of deadly bowling from India, star fast bowler Arshdeep Singh and young sensation Gurnoor Brar bowled brilliantly and both took 3 wickets each. Thousands of Lucknowites present at Ekana Stadium witnessed this historic and run-filled victory.
