Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan out early in India vs South Africa 2015, 2nd T20I at Cuttack

Virat Kohli was run out for 1 and Shikhar Dhawan was out LBW for 11 off 12 balls, in the second Twenty20 International (T20I) between India and South Africa at Barbati Stadium, Cuttack, on Monday. Dhawan, whose T20I record is far from impressive, hit a couple of boundaries before being struck in front of the stumps by Chris Morris. He was out LBW for 11 and India lost their first wicket at 28 after four overs. Kohli was then run out almost immediately after, failing to communicate properly with Rohit Sharma at the other end. Rohit batted nicely, hitting a boundary in the very first over to remind all and sundry that he was in excellent form. Imran Tahir opened bowling from the other end, and he managed to get one to jump up off a good length to rap Rohit on his gloves. The bat tumbled from his hands, but that was the extent of it. Virat Kohli came in at No. 3 as usual for India. Live Cricket Scorecard: India vs South Africa 2nd T20I at Cuttack
