Australian started innings with little caution, but Captain Aaron Finch was run out on 36, when he was trying to take an unnecessary run. It was the turning point of match. He was playing very well and it was able to be seen that they would achieve the target. But after that the wickets fell down and the target went to be tougher. Australian batsmen tried to achieve the target but that was not more enough. Steve Smith scored 69, David Warner 56 and Alex Carey scored 50 not out. Usman Khawaja and Glenn Maxwell scored 42 and 28 respectively. Five batsmen were out before crossing double digit. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jastrit Bumrah took 3 wickets each and Yuzerndra Chahal took 2 wickets. Australia could score 316 and all out on 50 overs.

Man of the match was S. Dhawan.

It was the best and memorable performance of Indian team. Indian team completely dominated to Australian team. Indian team touched the entire match. Planning and using the condition of weather and players is the key deference in those teams. India won both its both matches and stands on third position on point table.

It is not a good sign for Australia, because it has next match with Pakistan and Australian team’s moral has fallen down after that match. Pakistan can win its match against Australia, if it plays with full strength.
