India vs Australia 2020, Live Cricket Score of 1st ODI Match: It’s over. Chasing 375 will always be difficult for visitors. India crossed the 300-run mark, but Australia won the match by 66 runs. Finch and Smith scored centuries, Zampa chose four wickets while Hazlewood took three of his 10 overs. A day to forget for Virat Kohli and Co.
Advance: A new world and a different shade of retro blue awaits a circumspect Indian cricket team reentering the international arena without a white-ball colossus in Rohit Sharma, facing the power of a menacing Australia at the first ODI in Sydney on Friday.
The absence of an injured Rohit Sharma will certainly leave a huge void at the top of the order, something skipper Virat Kohli would not have imagined at the start of a grueling two-month tour.
Kohli’s men, who had been on a COVID-imposed international break since the disastrous away series against New Zealand that ended in early March, are now kicking up their international schedule in a series in which many are expected to be made. probing questions.
For those who believe in superstition, the return of the 1992 World Cup navy jersey does not bode well as one of India’s worst performances (7th in 9 teams) occurred in that particular edition. .
For the more pragmatic, it will be more about how Kohli’s men hit their right mix in the absence of Rohit, whose injury has been a topic of national debate.
Whether it’s the young Shubman Gill or the slightly more seasoned Mayank Agarwal, whichever partner a fit Shikhar Dhawan is, the challenge of taking on a Mitchell Starc or Pat Cummins for the first time will remain onerous.
So ‘King Kohli’ again has his task cut short as he prepares to fight off a high-quality rhythm attack, which will likely be complemented by the wrist twist of Adam Zampa, who has at times been the nemesis of the Indian captain.
Facing a team from Australia in their own backyard with a Steve Smith, who is catching up, an eternally hungry David Warner and a great future at Marnus Labuschagne is not the best of proposals and therefore they will get on with it. try some priorities.
