Australia struggled initially and losing Mitchell Marsh in the very first over did not help either. Steven Smith wasn’t able to find his timing right but David Warner looked good and played more freely after getting a life as he went on to register a nice half-century but got out just after which shifted the momentum a bit. They added 94 runs together but the visitors failed to build long partnerships after that as both Smith and Marnus Labuschagne couldn’t convert their starts into a big score. Despite their long batting order, they were not that aggressive and it looked like they went into a shell. Cameron Green also got a start but a huge mix-up in the middle with Josh Inglis cost him his wicket. However, a 62-run stand between Inglis and Marcus Stoinis towards the end of the innings took Australia to a competitive score.
A quality bowling performance from India! Mohammad Shami led from the front with a brilliant five-wicket haul which is also the first by any Indian bowler against the Aussies on home soil that helped the hosts restrict Australia to 276. The visitors will be a bit unhappy as looking at their team, they would have hoped for something around or over 300, but their bowlers will like this challenge against this top opposition.
