With this win, Australia levelled the three-match series 1-1.Chasing a low total of 118, Australia got off to a flying start as their openers Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head slammed Indian blowers all around the ground from early in the innings.The batting pair of Marsh and Head were decisive in their approach and made the Indian bowlers toil hard making merry of the excellent batting conditions on offer.The Aussie duo hammered Mohammed Shami for 16 runs with the help of two maximums and one four. In the 6th over of the game, Head single-headedly hammered Mohammed Siraj for back-to-back four boundaries, bringing up his team's total beyond the 50-run mark.The Aussie batters rotated the strike brilliantly, not allowing the Indian bowlers to settle down while whacking the loose balls on offer.The carnage by Aussie batters continued as Marsh single-headedly slammed Hardik Pandya for 18 runs with the help of three sixes. Marsh continued the carnage and brought up his 28-ball half-century in the 8th over of the game.In the 10th over of the game, the duo took their team's total beyond the 100-run mark. Head also brought up his half-century in 29 balls.In the 11th over of the game, Marsh slammed a stunning four to guide his team home with a 10-wicket victory over India.Earlier, Mitchell Starc produced one of the best bowling spells as he dismantled the Indian batting line-up, bundling Men in Blue for 117 in the second ODI match.The veteran Australian fast bowler broke the opening partnership in his third ball and the first over of the match. Starc lured Shubman Gill to play a shot in the offside. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli tried to overcome the early loss and switched to attacking mode. Their plan of the onslaught on Australian bowlers did work well for some time.However, Starc made a comeback in the fifth over of the match. The Indian skipper Rohit Sharma lost his wicket in a similar fashion, and Starc once again lured Rohit Sharma to play a shot on the offside. The Indian opener tried to play a cover drive but his bat only met the dust, and the edge of his bat met the ball. The ball travelled straight to Steve Smith at a lightning pace, but the Australia skipper didn't make any mistake as he adjusted himself in a split second and held on to the ball.After Rohit Sharma's wicket, the Blues started to lose wickets at regular intervals. Virat Kohli held on to his wicket at one end but the rest of the players found it hard to adjust to the pitch conditions.After dismissing the Indian skipper in his very next ball Starc dismissed Surya Kumar Yadav with a beautiful inswinging delivery. Surya completely failed to read the ball and it ended up striking his pads right in front of the wicket. KL Rahul became Starc's fourth victim.Expectations were high from KL Rahul after his performance in the last match. However, this time he failed to understand the ball, his bat came down quite late. He tried his luck by taking a review but it was in vain.Hardik Pandya stepped in to steady the sinking ship of the Indian team but his intentions were not enough. Sean Abbott dismissed Pandya with some help from Steve Smith. The Australian skipper made a terrific effort to reach the ball and hold onto it.After watching his comrades Nathan Ellis joined the party by dismissing the set batter Virat Kohli for 31(35). In the end, Axar Patel made a valiant effort to keep the scoreboard ticking and take his team to a defendable score. His two consecutive sixes against Mitchell Starc were the highlight of the match.But Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj failed to support Axar. Starc picked up the final wicket of Siraj and completed his five-wicket haul. India ended their innings with a score of 117.Brief scores: India 117 (Virat Kohli 31, Axar Patel 29; Mitchell Starc 5-53) vs Australia 121/0 (Mitchell Marsh 66*, Travis Head 51*; Mohammed Shami 0-29).Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
