  "account": "On Saturday, Shai Hope achieved a century in his second consecutive ODI against India with a stellar 162 not out. Hope, who had scored a century against India's bowlers only three nights prior, led India to a five-wicket victory in an emphatic 352-run chase. The Indian batting lineup was bolstered by KL Rahul's century and Rohit Sharma's 92, but the bowling unit raised questions with a botched defense. Despite an early scare when Siraj's inswinger dismissed John Campbell, India's new-ball struggles persisted. Hope and Amir Jangoo outperformed debutant Anshul Kamboj, who had replaced Prasidh Krishna. Kamboj's early exit led to a slow start for India. Hope slowed down in the middle overs, taking 44 balls without a boundary from 87 to 126. However, Gurnoor Brar and Kamboj produced loose deliveries to help Hope and Gudakesh Motie score eight boundaries in 14 deliveries, propelling India closer to their target.",
