Team India managed to bowl out Australia for a total of 264 runs in 49.3 overs. Mohammed Shami was the star of the Indian bowling attack, securing impressive figures of 3/48.
Australia’s innings saw notable contributions from Steve Smith and Alex Carey. Smith anchored the innings with a solid 73, while Carey added a quick 61 off 57 balls. Despite their efforts, Australia struggled to build significant partnerships, largely due to India’s disciplined bowling.
The Australian team made strategic changes for this match, bringing in spinners Cooper Connolly and Tanveer Sangha. However, they were unable to capitalize on the dry pitch conditions, which favored India’s spinners. Varun Chakravarthy and Axar Patel played pivotal roles, each taking crucial wickets at key moments.
With a target of 265 runs, India will now look to their strong batting lineup to secure a spot in the final. The weather in Dubai remains favorable, with clear skies and no chance of rain, adding to the excitement of this high-stakes encounter.
