Australian Innings
Australia need to get on with things.... the WC is coming and games will NOT be the low-scoring crap that has been played recently. 300+ or 350+ is a minimum.
Australia lose an early wicket with no runs on the board
Australia 0/1 * (1.3/50 ov) (RR 0.0)
AJ Finch c †Dhoni b Bumrah 0 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
Wickets
Finch OUT facing only 3 balls...so even a zero SR does little harm, but the batsmen who use up balls faced NEED to have SR around 100
MP Stoinis c Kohli b Jadhav 37 (53b 6x4 0x6) SR: 69.81
UT Khawaja c Shankar b Kuldeep Yadav 50 (76b 5x4 1x6) SR: 65.78
Prediction (2.5x25ov)
Australia 101/3 * (25/50 ov) (RR 4.04) ===> Final score 253
Prediction (2x30ov)
Australia 128/3 * (30/50 ov) (RR 4.41) ===> Final score 256
Innings Break - Target for India 237
RESULT
Australia 236/7
India 240/4 (48.2/50 ov, target 237)
India won by 6 wickets (with 10 balls remaining)
Pathetic target set by Australia, but also India should have made such a pathetic target in <40 overs.
