One has to talk about Washington Sundar today.
Bowled 10 straight overs from 20-40.
He stifled the opposition with his subtle variations and got the prized wickets of Matt Short and Matt Renshaw – two of the big players in this series.
Axar was undoubtedly an incredible bowler in this match – bowling a smart spell of 6-0-18-1. Axar’s wicket of Mitchell Marsh helped India get back in the game after a strong top-order start from Australia.
Kuldeep Yadav made his return to the line-up and troubled the Australian batters the most. He returns with 1/50 in his full 10 overs.
Apart from the spinners and Rana, Mohammed Siraj bowled well in his 5 overs where he bowled a maiden and picked up 1 wicket for 24 runs.
Prasidh was by far India’s worst bowler today, bowling odd lengths and failing to hit the yorkers, Even he came out with a wicket today – off Nathan Ellis.
