Jaiswal, Kohli revive India
December 27, 2024 11:45India 134-2 (37 ovs) vs Aus 474 | Scorecard
Australia make a change as Mitchell Marsh replaces Lyon, who bowled 5 overs for 18 runs.
Jaiswal clips the first ball to fine leg for a single and Kohli does the same next ball for another run.
Jaiswal goes after a wide delivery, trying to drive as he gets the edge which flies in the gap wide of the slips to get him a single to thirdman and Kohli follows it up with one next ball.
In the next over, Kohli again plays a thumping pull shot off Cummins for a boundary square on the leg side. He tries the shot again next ball but can't get it off the middle, hitting it to the fielder, followed by a block.
By not chasing the wide deliveries, Kohli has forced Australia to try a different tactics by bowling on the stumps or try the bouncers.
