IND vs. AUS: Chahal’s delivery smacked Cameron Green in the pads in the fifth over. The Indian players, though, did not file an appeal. Then, in the sixth over, replays reveal that Green, who went on to score 61 off 30 balls, had been out LBW.
The Indian cricket team had a miserable day on the field on Tuesday, losing to Australia by four wickets. A mediocre Indian bowling attack performed poorly, failing to defend a 208-run total. All of Bhuvneshwar Kumar (4-0-52-0), Harshal Patel (4-0-49-0), Yuzvendra Chahal (3.2-0-42-1), Umesh Yadav (2-0-27-2) and Hardik Pandya (2-0-22-0) gave up runs. Even more confusing was Team India’s inability to identify an LBW opportunity during the opening T20I of the three-match series.
