Shubman Gill and Ishan Kishan both scored centuries as India powered to a 170-run victory over Afghanistan to take an unassailable lead in their ODI series.

Afghanistan had barely any answers after India piled up 402 in 49.5 overs, and they fell short in the chase.

Despite Yashasvi Jaiswal's early dismissal for just four runs, India made a strong start, with Rohit Sharma falling just two runs short of a half-century before he was bowled by Rashid Khan (3-48).

That then set up Gill (154) and Kishan (125), who added 224 runs off 141 balls for the third wicket, with the hosts looking likely to carry their total over 450 at one stage.

However, Afghanistan restricted India somewhat in the final 10 overs, going 62-7 in that time, with only Shreyas Iyer (26) and Washington Sundar (19) hitting double figures following Gill's exit in the 43rd over.

Afghanistan initially gave a good go of it in the chase, with Rahmanullah Gurbaz (41), Sediqullah Atal (42) and Rahmat Shah (79) posting big scores as they attempted to push.

Arshdeep Singh (3-45) helped to rip through the lower order with debutant Prince Yadav (2-56), skittling Afghanistan out for 232 with six and a half overs remaining.

High-scoring India send out statement

This is the highest match aggregate (634) involving India and Afghanistan in ODIs, with the hosts ensuring they would walk away with a series win in the second match.

Gill helped to lead the charge, recording his ninth century in the format – and his first as captain – while Kishan got his second, and it was their mammoth stand that decided the result.

The India captain reached his fifty off 38 balls and reached his century in 77, but Kishan impressed by taking just 19 deliveries to bring up his second 50.

With India 193-2 after 28 overs, their partnership plundered 114 runs off the next eight, and though Afghanistan did some damage control, they had given themselves too big a mountain to climb in the chase.
