Australian Cricket Team posted a challenging target of 270 runs for India. The Aussies would rue their shot selection where they couldn’t capitalize on their starts. Virat Kohli has had a scratchy ODI series so far where Mitchell Starc has bamboozled him with his variations. Virat Kohli has a knack for performing in crunch bilateral matches, especially against Australia.

Indian openers got the team to a flyer as they scored 65 runs in the 9 overs. Sean Abbott got rid of Rohit Sharma in the 10th over on the very first ball. Rohit Sharma was striking the ball cleanly & would be dejected after getting dismissed on 30 runs in 17 balls where he struck 2 fours & 2 huge sixes.

Watch- Steve Smith’s Poor DRS Leaves Virat Kohli In Splits

Virat Kohli came into bat when Rohit Sharma was dismissed. Sean Abbott was bowling the 10th over and was spot on with his line & length. On the 5th delivery of the 10th over, Virat Kohli who was facing his first ball tried to guide the ball toward the point but missed the ball and the wicket-keeper Alex Carey grabbed it.

Although Carey was not at all interested, Smith after having a chat with Sean Abbott thought that there was an edge & took a review. In the replay, it showed that there was a massive gap between the bat & ball and as a result, the Aussies lost a review. Smith was quite stunned as they lost a precious review. Meanwhile, Virat Kohli was left in splits seeing the Aussies take a horrible DRS.

Enthralling Contest on Cards

The Aussies would sense the fact that the dew may come into the act later in the game when they need wickets at regular intervals of the match. The visitors would be hoping that Marcus Stoinis picks wickets as his role would be quite decisive in this decider where Australia doesn’t have Nathan Ellis.

India are yet to lose an ODI series since 2019 when Australia had won by 3-2. The Men in Blue would be eyeing a huge partnership of 100 runs as it won’t be easy for a new batter to score runs on this track. This victory would give huge confidence to the Men in Blue ahead of the ODI WC 2023 later this year.
