Indian skipper Rohit Sharma led the charge with a blistering half-century in their crucial Super 8 encounter against Australia at the Darren Sammy Stadium in St. Lucia.
Electing to bat after losing the toss, India got off to a flying start thanks to Sharma’s aggressive knock. The Hitman completed his fifty in a mere 19 balls, showcasing his power-hitting prowess with four boundaries and five towering sixes.
At the time of this report, India has reached a commanding 60 runs after 6 overs, losing just one wicket. Sharma found a solid partner in Rishabh Pant, who remains unbeaten alongside him.
This dominant display comes after India secured convincing victories in their previous two Super 8 matches. They currently sit atop the group with 4 points. Meanwhile, Australia seeks to bounce back after a defeat against Afghanistan, although they managed a win against Bangladesh.
