Over the last couple of months, batting all-rounder Deepak Hooda has been a valuable asset for Team India in white-ball cricket due to his consistent performances. He once again came to the Men in Blue’s rescue with a handy 25 in the second One Day International against Zimbabwe at the Harare Sports Club on Saturday, August 20. The win helped India in taking an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
Deepak Hooda: India’s new lucky charm
With India registering 16 successive victories in all the matches that Deepak Hooda has played, this is now the longest unbeaten streak for a player post his debut at the highest level. With Hooda in the team, the Indian team have won seven One Day Internationals and nine T20Is.
