India have started the T20I series against Australia in the most dominant way possible as bowlers helped the hosts clinch a natural and crucial win at Ranchi.

Having won the toss and chose to bowl first, Bhuvneswar Kumar dismissed skipper Warner in the very first over. Despite a fightback from Maxwell and Finch, there is hardly any resistance for Indian spinners from the Aussie middle order as wickets continued to fall.

However, rain had other ideas as Australia’s innings came to an abrupt close at 18.4 overs. The match was reduced to 6 overs for Indian innings with a revised target of 48. India cruised to victory with ease. Here we look at the player ratings for Indian cricket team.
