Fightback post Rahul-Dhawan stand played big part in win: Aaron Finch

By Saurabh Sharma January 14, 2020 • 22:25 PM View: 1139

Mumbai, Jan 14: Australian captain Aaron Finch said that the team's fightback led by the bowlers in the middle overs during their first ODI against India at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai played a big role in their massive win. Finch and opening partner David Warner ensured that Australia chased down a target of 256 without losing a wicket.

Australia got an early wicket in the dangerous Rohit Sharma but the in-form pair of Shikhar Dhawan and KL Rahul then put up a stand of 121 runs for the second wicket. However, Australia wrested back control of the match after that stand was broken and never really let go.
