O'Keefe dismissed for 25, Aus lose 8th wicket

March 17, 2017 13:05

Aus 446-8 (134.3 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

The field is well spread out for Smith, who is quite okay with taking singles early in the over. At the other end, O'Keefe continues to grow in confidence as he pulls a short ball from Umesh behind square on the leg side for a four to take his score to 24.

Ashwin comes back into the attack, replacing Jadeja, who bowled a wonderful spell in the morning session. Smith yet again takes a single before O'Keefe defends the last two balls as India's bowlers look completely clueless against Australia's batsmen after the lunch break.

Umesh finally makes the breakthrough with the wicket of O'Keefe, who pulls a short ball but is caught at fine leg for 25, after he had put on 51 runs for the eighth wicket with Smith.
