India beat Australia and salvage pride (Cricket)

India pulled off an incredible two-wicket victory relying on the tail-enders to salvage some pride in the seventh and final cricket One-day against Australia here on Wednesday night. In a low-scoring thriller, India first bundled out Australia for a paltry 193 in 41.3 overs, riding on Murali Kartik’s career-best six for 27 and then staged a dramatic recovery to overhaul the target with four overs to spare and reduce the margin to 4-2 in the series. The Indians owed their remarkable victory to left-arm spinner Kartik, who produced a mesmerizing spell to derail the Australian batting and then was involved in a cheeky 52-run unbeaten partnership with Zaheer Khan (31 not out) to guide the team home. ****************India vs Australia 7th ODI - 1st 5wkts of Aussies*************** ***************India vs Australia 7th ODI - Last 5wkts of Aussies innings*********** published by sree
