India Vs Afghanistan Live Score, 3rd ODI: Three For Krishna, Three For Rohit

Three for Rohit, three for Prasidh! He goes fuller side of length, Ibrahim sees that as a scoring opportunity. The 139ks ball swung away just outside off and he looked to drive through cover. Thin outside edge lobbed to Rohit at first. Smiles all around for India

Opens him up and Rohit has his second catch! 141ks seam titled a touch towards fist slip but that didn't move sideways. Rahmat looked to flick it through midwicket, was too early into the shot and got a leading edge. Rohit ran left and smushed the ball with his wrists into his thighs before getting his hands around it.

Afghanistan are robbed early!

Swing and wicket! Bit of a wobble on the outswinger. It's fullish but Gurbaz had to drive on the up. It started around fourth stump and kept shaping away, while tempting the batter to get bat on ball. It was a firm push with a check, tried to get it to cover, edged to Rohit at first slip. Comfortable height. Prasidh strikes first ball.

And we are underway in Chennai!

The third ODI has begun, and Afghansitan's opening pair of Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran are out in the middle, ready to set the tone for the chase. Gurbaz takes guard, while India hand the new ball to the talented young fast bowler Gurnoor Brar.

The stage is set, the crowd is buzzing, and the first delivery is about to decide the mood of the contest. Game on.

Afghanistan (Playing XI): Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Ibrahim Zadran, Sediqullah Atal, Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi (c), Darwish Rasooli, Rashid Khan, Nangeyalia Kharoti, AM Ghazanfar, Mohammad Saleem Safi, Bilal Sami.

Meanwhile, Harshit Rana is finally back to the team after a long break due to a knee injury. It would be interesting to see if Gill puts him into the playing XI or not.

A knee injury sustained earlier this year halted his progress at a crucial stage, forcing him to miss several major assignments. The setback ruled him out of India's T20 World Cup campaign and also prevented him from taking part in IPL 2026, where he was expected to play a key role for Kolkata Knight Riders.
