| Comeback man Yuvraj scripts easy win for India |
In an absolutely high-scoring game of T20 cricket at Rajkot, which was only T20 game between India and Australia, saw blitzcreig effort by Yuvraj to see India home.
A T20 game where more than 400 runs are scored, watching blisstering hitting from both sides at Rajkot, India were rescued by Yuvraj's comeback innings. What was amazing to see was the way he batted, throughout his innings, it felt like he was not out of the game till recent. Shikar Dhawan, Suresh Raina and Virat Kolhi did the power-packing the start for Indian inning's with almost 100 runs in first 10 overs. And Dhoni's smart and thoughtful batting along with Yuvraj, kept India's hope high for a win.
Australia last won a match in India (apart from WC games) on November
8th 2009. Since then they have lost 6 Tests and drawn none, lost the
only 2 completed ODIs (
3 abandoned) and a T20. Not a great record.
Aaron Finch had powered Australia to a challenging 201 for seven with
his blistering 89-run knock off 52-ball as visiting batsmen made merry
on a flat wicket after being invited to bat at SCA stadium. Finch plundered 15 boundaries, including a six, as he anchored the
Australian innings while debutant Nic Maddinson (34) and Glenn Maxwell
(27) also played more than handful knocks for their side. James Faulkner struck a last-ball six to guide his team to a go past the 200-run mark figure.
Everybody loves to see Yuvraj Singh do well. Be it cricket or life, he has always fought hard and come back stronger than before.
Australian stand-in captain
George Bailey has expressed his concern over Indian 'comeback star'
Yuvraj Singh ahead of the limited-overs series. The Aussies have identified Yuvraj Singh as a major threat as they do not need any reminding of this smashing batsman’s talent.
