In what could be called a nervy start to the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, India’s middle order was brought to the test in the first game itself by the Australians. In pursuit of a modest total of 200 runs, India lost three of its top four batters in just two overs. The team was pushed on the back foot right from the start.

Aussie pacer Mitchell Starc began the innings with a scalp of Ishan Kishan for a duck in the first over. In the second over, captain Rohit Sharma was trapped in front of the three sticks by Josh Hazlewood, to further put a dent in India’s innings. To make things worse, Shreyas Iyer threw his wicket in the final delivery of Hazlewood’s first over.

However, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul put up a solid partnership to keep the team in the hunt. Both the batters played the waiting game initially and then started to score runs slowly. Both the batters, in the meantime, brought up their half-centuries. While Virat Kohli was dismissed at a score of 85 runs, KL Rahul remained unbeaten at 97 and threw the winning punch on Australia. Team India won the game against Australia by six wickets.

Earlier in the game, Australia opted to bat first, however, their move turned out to be disastrous. The Aussies were blown away by the Indian bowlers, who not only bowled troubling lines but also restricted run flow to put continuous pressure on the Australians.

Opener David Warner and Steve Smith were the pick of the batters for Australia, who scored runs in the vicinity of 40s. Barring them no other batter looked settled against the Indian bowlers. Towards the end of the innings, pacer Mitchell Starc tried to add some handy runs to the team’s total. Australia managed just 199 runs before getting bowled out.

For India, Ravindra Jadeja scalped three wickets, two wickets each went in the bag of Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav, while one wicket apiece was picked by Hardik Pandya, R Ashwin and Mohammad Siraj.
