IND vs AUS: Men in Blue aim for equaliser, look to end top order, death bowling struggles
It has been a while since the top order consisting of KL Rahul, skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have fired in unison.
It has been a while since the top order consisting of KL Rahul, skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have fired in unison.
Rohit said it was all a matter of taking one wicket --between Wade and Tim David (18 off -- to seal victory in the match.
A century by Virat Kohli and a five-wicket haul by pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar helped Team India crush Afghanistan by 101 runs in their Super Four clash at Asia Cup 2022.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar has suffered a spate of injuries recently and that has put a question mark on the future of his career.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar was having a great night with his economical figure of 1/20 in 3 overs when he picked up the injury after bowling the first delivery of his fourth over.
It may not be that easy for the Indian team since the Indian bowler who has taken most wickets against West Indies is currently not in the squad.
The first T20I match will be played at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai on 6 December.
On Sunday, Kohli -- who hit five consecutive half-centuries in the recently concluded World Cup but failed to convert any -- ended his five-month drought for an ODI hundred with a brilliant 120-run knock.
Enroute his eighth ODI ton against the West Indies, Kohli went past Sourav Ganguly's tally of 11,221 runs to become India's second-highest run-scorer in ODI cricket after Sachin Tendulkar (18,426 runs).
Praising Saini, who starred in India's win with figures of 3 for 17 in his international debut, Bhuneshwar said, "Just before coming into the team he played for India A against West Indies A in West Indies. That is why he did well. When you do well at international level, it gives you a lot of confidence."
