The game started well, MSD “Toss Ka Boss” as usual won the toss and decided to bat first, though the start was not well and Dhawan was sent to Marsh (Mitchel Marsh) by Hazlewood only at 9. Then comes the India’s own boy BC (Best cricketer) of BCCI Virat Kohli. He accelerated the innings with Sharma very well and again crowd were cheering watching Kohli-Sharma pairing.

Things were going well both completed their half century Sharma (Rohit sharma) succeeded to bag the century. It was the time when the score board was needed to be accelerated to drive India at safe place, for the same sake Kohli got out and new man the Boss himself came on the ground though he made 18 or 13 balls but the old spark was missing otherwise he could have stayed for a little more time and could have accelerated score to mark Team India safe in this interesting game. Sharma kept playing added another half century and scored 171 not out.

Now, it was time for Australia to show the power of batting as bowlers were not so effective as no regular and main bowlers are playing accept most experienced Faulkner. Aussies opening was not good and both Finch and Warner was sent back to pavilion by the débutante BB Sarn.

Smith and Bailey then joined the league and played very efficiently and effectively. They rotated the strikes well and made sure the team’s victory.

Australia own the match in last over to lead the series by 1-0. India has to work hard to get runs in death overs and also has to work on strike rotation and believe in singles as Smith and Bailey did.
