IND vs AUS 2017, 1st ODI: Watch – Nathan Coulter-Nile Sends Manish Pandey on a Duck
Sep 17, 2017 at 2:52 PM
Australia has made a dream start to their series against India after the hosts decided to bat first, winning the toss.
However, both Pat Cummins and Nathan Coulter Nile have bowled a great spell of seam bowling on a batting friendly pitch at Chepauk stadium, Chennai after a top-order collapse with India reduced to 11/2.
The onus was on Manish Pandey to stabilise the Indian innings, but the Karnataka player had only faced a couple of deliveries before going back to the dressing room, having to become the third victim for Coulter-Nile on the day.
Coming to the wicket, the Aussie bowler bowled a full and wide from the off stump, and Pandey looked to guide the ball down the third man. However, he only managed to get an outside edge which was an easy catch for Matthew Wade behind the stumps.
The dismissal meant India getting reduced to 11/3 inside six overs and the onus is on Rohit Sharma and Kedhar Jadhav to recover the innings from the situation. The No.4 position remains a concern for the Indian team after dropping Yuvraj Singh from the team.
