The run chase, however, wasn’t easy for the hosts. Marcus Stoinis dismissed Ishan Kishan in the second over of India’s innings in the IND VS AUS 1st ODI. Mitchell Starc who wasn’t able to create much impact in the tests created havoc in the game by picking up wickets of Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, and Suryakumar Yadav. KL Rahul and Hardik Pandya had a small partnership before Marcus Stoinis provided a breakthrough. Nonetheless, KL Rahul reached his half-century and Ravindra Jadeja scored 45 runs to take India through.
