December 28, 2018 06:13

Aus 53-3 (20 ovs) vs India 443-7 dec | Scorecard

Khawaja pulls a short ball from Shami behind square for two runs. The pacer then bowls it full but again down the leg side as Khawaja plays a beautiful flick through square leg for a four. The two left-handers have a slight misunderstanding before they recover as Khawaja steals a quick single in the covers.

Jadeja bowls it wide as Khawaja taps it past the slip fielder for a single. Shaun Marsh chips down the track to the next delivery and takes a quick run to mid-on to get off the mark.

Khawaja also uses his feet as he drives it to mid-off before he reverse sweeps the next ball for a four to bring up Australia's 50, in the 20th over.

However, Jadeja gets revenge as Khawaja looks to block but gets an inside edge and is caught by Mayank at short leg to perish for 21. Jadeja got the ball to turn from the rough spots as Khawaja looking to defend got it off the inside half of the bat, giving the short leg fielder an easy catch to leave Australia in trouble on 53 for three.
