CRIK:Jaiswal ton leads India to ODI sweep over Afghanistan

Prasidh Krishna has earned his maiden five-wicket haul and Yashasvi Jaiswal scored 110 not out as India beat Afghanistan by nine wickets to complete a three-game ODI series sweep.

Krishna took 5-23 in his 8.2 overs as Afghanistan were bowled out for 218 in just 44.2 overs on Saturday after the visitors had won the toss and opted to bat in Chennai.

Skipper Hashmatullah Shahidi scored 102 off 131 balls but didn't get enough support.

In reply, India were never in any trouble as Jaiswal struck his second ODI hundred, while also putting up 170 for the opening wicket with Rohit Sharma.

Sharma scored 79 off 69 balls and Jaiswal was unbeaten in the finish as India wrapped up the game on 1-224 in 28.4 overs, winning with a whopping 21.2 overs to spare.
