India punished for excessively slow pace
The Indian cricket team was fined 20 per cent of its match fee for maintaining a slow excessive rate against Australia in the series that opened the first ODI in Sydney. India took an unprecedented four hours and six minutes to complete its 50 overs during its 66-run loss in the first ODI. ICC match referee David Boon imposed the penalty after India was found to be one short of the target after time allowances were taken into consideration.

Second preview of ODI:
Having drawn the first blood, Australia has the advantage over India and is heading to the second ODI. With another expected flat platform and a limited swing on offer, his hitting threat looms over India once again. They were ruthless and robust, especially hitting, and based on what the world saw on Friday, they have much more depth in their squad, and much less in the XI, than their Indian counterparts. They were defeated 1-2 last time. Now is Aaron Finch’s chance to even the odds and dish out a fifth straight ODI loss to ODI’s No. 2 team in the world.
