RAIPUR: Skipper Rohit Sharma on Saturday praised India’s bowlers after the hosts hammered New Zealand by eight wickets to clinch the series in the second One-day International.
Pace spearhead Mohammed Shami returned figures of 3-18 to help dismiss the Black Caps for 108 after India elected to bowl first in Raipur.
Rohit made 51 as India romped home in 20.1 overs to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
And the captain said his bowlers had made an impression with their seam movement at home since the recent ODI sweep of Sri Lanka when Mohammed Siraj led the charge with nine wickets.
The final match is on Tuesday in Indore.
