Captain Steve Smith led from the front with a stroke of 73, while Alex Carey (61) also did its part. Carey and Smith were involved in a position of 54 races for the fifth Wickt.

The Jase Run-Chase of India vs Australia
India lost Shubman Gill (8) and Captain Rohit Sharma (28) in the first power game of his persecution. Virat Kohli, the “Chase Master” of India, made his task reduced and played a valuable 84 of 98 deliveries. The former Captain of India was caught by Ben Dwarshuis in Long-on Off Adam Zampa’s Ball.
Kohli, who forged a 91 -run position with Shreyas Iyer (45), built a 47 -run with Rahul (42*) for the fifth Wickt. Hardik Pandya (28) also contributed valuable races before being fired by Nathan Ellis in 48. However, India needed less than 10 races at that stage and Rahul and Ravindra Jadaja made sure that the men in blue crossed the finish line without more fuss.
