Hero Honda Cup 2009: India vs Australia

November 09, 2009 By: admin1 Category: Cricket News No Comments →

Sunday was a bad day for India who opted to bat first and finally lost the show to the touring team Australia in the 6th ODI of the Hero Honda Cup. With this victory, Australia has clinched the seven match series by 4-2.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the toss and chose to bat first in the heavy weather conditions and the side suffered since the beginning as they lost the top batting order. They never got the time to recover and hence fell flat to the World Champions.
India managed to make 170 in 48 overs while the Australians chased down the target in 41.5 overs losing just 4 wickets.
From Australian side, Shane Watson (49), Ricky Ponting (25), Cameron White (25) helped for a good base while the match was completed by Michael Hussey (35 not out) and Adam Voges (23 not out).
Previously, India who opted to bat first were slumped to 27/5 in 9 overs and even a hundred looked far for the team.
Fortunately, Ravindra Jadeja (57) and Praveen Kumar (54 not out) pushed the score to 170 before they coiled.
