India vs Australia Highlights And Cricket Score 14th Match - ODI Summary
That is it from game number 14. Australia's 10-match winning streak has been broken. They drop down to 4th in the points table while India move up to 3rd. Monday sees South Africa taking on West Indies in Southampton at 10.30 am local (0930 GMT). A must-win game for the Proteas to turn their horrible fortune around. Until then, ADIOS! TAKE CARE!
Victorious Indian captain, Virat Kohli, says that this was a top win, especially after losing the bilateral series in India. Stresses that the team wanted to prove a point and came out with intent, right from the openers, then towards the death and eventually the bowlers. Cites this as a complete professional performance. Says that one cannot just take things for granted because you have got 350 on the board and you have to bowl well but those extra 30 runs do give a cushion. States further that Dhawan was going well, then he himself was in good touch and then Hardik had a wonderful outing. On Shami's non-inclusion, Kohli says that overcast conditions are a must for him to play while Bhuvneshwar Kumar can never be written off, as was evident in this game's double-wicket over to dismiss Smith and Stoinis.
Australian captain, Aaron Finch says 120 runs in the last 10 overs was a lot and he feels they did not bowl well in the end. He feels they did not get wickets early on. Further adds India had wickets in hand at the end and with set batters out there, run-stopping is tough. States there was not a lot on offer with the new ball but they could have been a lot straighter. Stresses you need wickets against this Indian batting line-up. Tells they assess the conditions and then make a decision, they will assess the conditions of the next game see what changes need to be made. Admits he hates getting run out, however, he backs his partner's call and such things happens in cricket. On Warner's bizarre knock, Finch says that India bowled really well to Warner and the wicket was not easy to bat on. Ends by saying, Warner is a great player, and today was an off day for him.
SHIKHAR DHAWAN HAS BEEN NAMED THE MAN OF THE MATCH. States that the team is very happy with the result and the fact that everyone performed is a great sign for the unit. Feels that India have a very balanced side which includes a good set of fast bowlers. Stresses that the team works very hard in the nets and which is why the results go their way. Agrees that India ticked all their boxes in the game, first putting up a good total and then the bowlers backing it up amazingly. Wants the team to maintain the same form and intensity and keep ticking all the boxes. Thanks the crowd for coming out in numbers to support the Indian team.
Questions will be posed on Australia's bowling, fielding and Warner's batting. The team seemed to lack purpose and it was as if they were not mentally present. They did not have any answer to Dhawan and Rohit's onslaught, or Kohli's punishments or Pandya's whips. Ended up conceding way too many runs. Wonder what might have happened had Carey taken that catch to dismiss Hardik on 0. Here comes the presentation...
The pitch did not have much in it and stayed true for most part of the game. But Australia simply did not have the arsenal to chase down 353. David Warner played a bizarre knock of 56 from 84 balls and the middle order just could breathe when choked by 'KulCha'. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah were amongst the wickets, sharing 3 apiece while Chahal snared Warner and Maxwell.
Comprehensive win by India to get their second successive victory in this World Cup. Won an important toss, put up a high total and then bowled exceedingly well to defend. Australia simply did not turn up. Looked ragged and lacklustre but they will take the fact that they managed to bat out their 50 overs and get some runs under their belt.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Adam Zampa. OUT! In the air... taken! Three-fer for Bhuvneshwar Kumar. It is the slower one on off, Zampa looks to loft it over mid off but does not get the timing right. An easy catch for Jadeja, the substitute. AUSTRALIA HAVE BEEN BOWLED OUT FOR 316! INDIA WIN THE MATCH BY 36 RUNS!
Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Alex Carey. Full and on middle, this is hit down to long off for one.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Adam Zampa. This time he manages to get bat on ball. Guides it through point for one.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Adam Zampa. Cuts him into half! Length and on off, it jags back in. Zampa looks to keep it out but the ball sneaks between bat and pad and over the stumps.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Alex Carey. Full and on the pads, Carey works it through square leg for one.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Alex Carey. OUT! Replays confirm that Starc is way short! This is jammed out towards deep cover. They take one. Carey wants the strike so he goes for a second which was not on. Shankar picks the ball up and fires it to the bowler who deflects it onto the stumps. An appeal and the umpire takes it upstairs. Replays roll in and they show Starc has to take the long walk back.
Jasprit Bumrah to Alex Carey. Another slower one! This time Carey gets bat to ball. It goes down to long off for one.
Jasprit Bumrah to Alex Carey. Play and a miss! Outside off again. Carey swings but only connects with thin air.
Jasprit Bumrah to Alex Carey. Could have easily been a 4th! Another slower one and outside off, Carey looks to hit it downtown but misses. It bounces in front of Dhoni making it difficult for him to collect it. He fails to do so. The ball hits the pads and rolls towards third man. Two byes taken.
Jasprit Bumrah to Alex Carey. Lovely deception! Bowls two quick deliveries and then a slower one outside off, Carey is way too early in the shot and gets beaten. Three dots in a row!
Jasprit Bumrah to Alex Carey. Now looks to innovate and play the paddle but misses as it is bowled down the leg side. Not wided.
Jasprit Bumrah to Alex Carey. A yorker just outside leg, following Carey. He looks to hit it but the ball sneaks under the bat.
