Dubai: India fine-tuned their T20 World Cup preparations with a convincing eight-wicket win over Australia in their final warm-up game but the sixth bowler’s slot remained a worry as even Virat Kohli rolled his arm over going into the tournament proper.
Captaining the side with Kohli only taking the field to bowl, Rohit Sharma (60 retired off 41) showed sublime touch alongside opening partner KL Rahul (39 off 31) as India chased down Australia’s 152 for five in 17.5 overs.
Suryakumar Yadav (38* off 27) came at No.3 in Kohli’s absence and got valuable time in the middle which should boost his confidence going ahead. Hardik Pandya (14 not out off 8) came at No. 4 to finish the game and he did it with a clean hit over the bowler’s head. Another plus for India was seasoned pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar finding rhythm after a poor outing against England. India had also beaten England in their earlier practice game.
