New Delhi. In response to India’s 205 runs, Australia scored 87 runs for one wicket at one time. That too in just 8.5 overs. Travis Head scored 42 runs and Mitchell Marsh scored 37 runs at the crease. The run rate was running around 10 and Australia had to score runs at this pace. All in all, this was the time when the Indian captain’s worries were mounting. It looked like the score of 205 might fall even lower. Akshar Patel came forward at this crucial time. He took such a brilliant catch of Mitchell Marsh that the Indians were filled with joy. Former cricketer Ishant Sharma, who is doing commentary, also considered this catch as the turning point of the match.
Chasing a target of 206 runs, Australia got off to a poor start and opener David Warner returned to the pavilion with just 6 runs. The early success after making a big score made the Indian cricket team and its fans happy. But after this the pair of opener Travis Head and captain Mitchell Marsh was established. Both shared 81 runs in 47 balls. The momentum of the game began to change. Kuldeep Yadav then gave India the wicket that India so desperately needed.
Sure enough Akshar Patel borrowed Superman’s cap for that catch. #aksharapatel #AUSvIND #AUSvIND #T20WorldCup #India Army pic.twitter.com/4Qx4QvQUmv
