Yes! Ajit Agarkar, who was majorly famous for his bowling, is leading this special list. It was the Rajkot ODI against Zimbabwe on 14th December 2000 when Agarkar’s batting played a powerful role for India’s victory. As a batsman, Agarkar was an entertainer, and this match was one of the best examples of this claim.

During this game, when the first batting side India were struggling on 216/6, the lower-order batsmen Reetinder Sodhi and Agarkar played the important roles for the hosts. Agarkar registered the 21-ball half-century and remained not out on 67 off 25 balls (7 fours and 4 sixes). Sodhi also scored 53 not out off 67 balls (4 fours and only six) and India managed to score 301/6 (50 overs).

In reply, Zimbabwe was bundled out for 262 runs (47.4 overs) and India won by 39 runs.
