KL Rahul finally broke India’s streak in the 21st attempt after the stand-in captain opted to field first against South Africa in the third and final ODI in Visakhapatnam on Saturday. Having last won a toss in the 5-over format during the 2023 ODI tournament, the Men in Blue have lost as many as 20 tosses with Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill and Rahul all on the receiving end. But after two years, India got lucky with Rahul using his left hand to flip the coin. South African captain Temba Bavuma called Heads and match referee Richie Richardson called Tails it is. Rahul celebrated with a hilarious laugh and a fist pump, with the Vizag crowd going gaga over it. The last time India won a toss in an ODI was during the 2023 World Cup semi-final against New Zealand at the Wankhede Stadium. Rahul later explained his bowling trick to bowling coach Morne Morkel. Not just Rahul, but India’s toss win was wildly celebrated by Harshit Rana. In a video that went viral, Rana jumped like a child in company with Rishabh Pant.
