  • Renuka Singh4-0-24-2

8.30pm India have pulled things back at the end to keep Australia to 172 for 8, despite Perry's 75. That Australia still got to that total was also down to Grace's fireworks. India's bowlers shared the spoils. Abhimanyu Bose will be back with you for India's chase. Cheers

Sowmya : "Very stiff target if not a tall order. The Indians have to bat at their best to pull this off. Smriti has a huge role to play"

Praveen Fagna : "This approach of aggressive cricket is the future in 50 and 20 overs, same England men's team doing. The old age tech of saving wickets and start hitting in slog overs seems no more relevant."
