Rahul hits half-century to rally India after early wickets

February 24, 2017 12:32

India 93-3 (31 ovs) vs Aus 260 | Scorecard

As was seen in the morning session, Rahul continues to be positive. The right-hander slashes hard at a wide delivery from Starc, only to get an edge, which flies over the slips for a four.

Two balls later, he gets another thick edge which goes through the gully region for another boundary.

Off-spinner Lyon comes back into the attack after two lackluster overs from O'Keefe after the lunch interval.

Rahane gets an inside edge off the last ball but it doesn't carry to the fielder at short leg.

Starc continues with his tactics of drawing the batsmen forward but Rahul is feeling a lot more confident to go after those as he flays a full delivery through the covers for a four. Two balls later he gently defends it on the off-side for a single before Rahane also throws his bat at a wide one but he is beaten.
