Indians are finally back on the winning track. They were terrific right from the start till the end of the game. The batsmen were remarkable and posted a imposing target of 189 for the Australians to chase. Virat Kohli continued bashing the Australian bowlers yet again with an unbeaten 90 runs off just 55 balls. Raina was back in the groove with his valuable 34 ball 41 runs. Dhoni also seemed to have got his mojo back. The Australia batting line-up looked explosive and looked in contention for the chase until the first 10 overs. But the Indian spinners completely knocked off their middle order to set up a emphatic 37 runs victory for India.

Dhawan pokes one and edges it to the keeper. Watson gets his second while Dhawan’s poor run continues. Is it time India looks over him for the T20Is?

Shane Watson gets the big wicket. Sharma the man in form caught at mid-wicket on the first ball of his comeback over. It will give Watto lot of confidence.

Great start for India, Sharma continues his rich form into the T20Is. He has already hit Tait for 21 and James Faulkner went for 9 in his first.

Rohit Sharma takes India to 10 at the end of the first over. He hit Shaun Tait for a six and four.
