Australia won the toss and elected to bat first in the semifinal. Captain Steve Smith scored 73 runs off 96 balls, while Alex Carey contributed a quick 61 runs off 57 deliveries. Australia were bowled out for 264 in 49.3 overs, failing to capitalize on their solid starts. At one stage, they looked set to score 300 runs.

On the first ball of the 48th over, Carey attempted a risky second run after mistiming a pull shot off Hardik Pandya’s slower delivery. Shreyas Iyer charged in from deep square leg and collected it cleanly. Iyer fired a pinpoint throw at the wicketkeeper’s end, but Carey, who did not dive, was short of his crease.

After Iyer’s direct hit led to Alex Carey’s run-out, Jay Shah was seen celebrating from the stands. A video capturing his animated reaction after Australia lost their eighth wicket has gone viral on the internet.
