November 22, 2024 08:06

India 5-1 (3 ovs) vs Aus | Scorecard

Josh Hazlewood from the other end. The first ball is back of length and swings in as Rahul is hit high on the pads. He leaves the next ball which swings away this time followed by a block.

Rahul is beaten as he pokes at the full delivery which moves away late to go past the edge followed by another leave.

He pushes the last ball into the leg side and thinks about the quick single but decides against it.

Starc strikes with the first ball of his second over. Jaiswal makes the mistake of trying drive the full delivery which swings away as he gets the edge and is caught at gully for an eight-ball duck.

Debutant Nathan McSweeney takes a sharp catch in the gully region which will help the youngster settle down.

Devdutt Padikkal at the crucial No 3 slot. He defends the full delivery first up before Starc gets some extra bounce and away movement to beat the left-hander.

A short ball away from the stumps as Padikkal leaves easily before he is struck on the pads by a full delivery which seems to have done too much as the leg before shout is turned down.

The last ball is a cracking yorker as Padikkal fails to get his bat down in time and it narrowly misses the off-stump.
