Today's match was a really big joke, to be honest, with such short boundaries 400 was obviously a very normal total for any good batting side to make but yes Ashwin still made it look as if it's a great turning track. I still almost always think that in pressure situations he can prove to be a better spinner the Kuldeep but I think it's the unorthodox action and being a leg spinner that has always helped Kuldeep. Also now because we have two spin all rounders in form of Jadeja and Axar, Ashwin has really been pulled down in that list of eligible players for the squad of WC.
The match was affected with rain and target was reduced but still Aussies were not able to make it. Boundaries were short for both sides or just for India? Batting first India just destroyed the Aussies pace attack by scoring 399 runs and thats something not easy to chase by any batting side. Good performance from Indian pacers as well as from spinners.
Yes its a great match for India team. Due to rain, the match was conducted under the DLS method. But whichever way Australia play, they are likely to fail as the target is so high. Playing against such a big score is not an easy task. Moreover, the Indian team is also the best in bowling at the moment. In today's match Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer who managed to score a century. But after these two batsmen, one more batsman managed to score well and that is Suryakumar Yadav who scored 72 runs off just 34 balls. For which the team managed to make a big score. India set a target of 399 runs against Australia and which is a tough challenge for any team.
