Kohli, Dhawan take India past 50

January 18, 2019 13:22

India 51-1 (14 ovs) vs Aus 230 | Scorecard

Part-time spinner Glenn Maxwell comes into the attack at the end of Powerplay 1.

Kohli and Dhawan not keen to let the spinner settle down as they pick seven runs from the over, all coming through ones and twos.

Stanlake bowling at a good pace as Kohli blocks the first two deliveries before he takes a quick run to mid-off and Dhawan picks one off the next.

Stanlake generates some extra bounce as Kohli (10) gets the edge but the Handscomb at slip is unable to hold on as it burst through his fingers and goes for a four. A lucky break for Kohli and the whole of India.

Leg-spinner Adam Zampa into the attack after just one over for Maxwell as he gives away four singles in his first over.

Stanlake drops short as Kohli hammers it through the covers for a four. He tries another short ball as Kohli is able to pull it through midwicket for another boundary to take India past the 50-run mark, in the 14th over.

Kohli and Rohit have managed to lift the tempo with 25 coming from the last four overs.
