Sports Desk: India vs Australia 1st ODI: Mohammed Shami claimed career-best figures of 5-51 and India’s frontline batters gave a good account themselves to secure their five-wicket victory against Australia in the opening one-day international on Friday.
Put into bat, Australia were all out for 276 in exactly 50 overs even though 300 looked within their reach before Shami polished off their tail.
In reply, four of India’s top six batters smashed half-centuries as the home side led, who have rested several frontline players, romped home with eight balls to spare.
