00:00 In an impressive display of cricketing skills, Team India defeated Australia by five wickets
00:11 in the opening ODI of the three-match series in Mohali.
00:15 Mohamed Shami beautifully demonstrated his bowling prowess with impressive figures of
00:20 5 for 51, limiting Australia to a total of 276 after stand-in captain KL Rahul elected
00:28 to bowl first.
00:29 In response, Shubman Gill put on an outstanding batting display, scoring a fiery 74 of just
00:36 63 deliveries, setting the tone for India's victory.
00:40 Gill's half-century, his ninth overall in the ODIs, was filled with six fours and two
00:46 stunning sixes of Marcus Stoinis and Matthew Short.
00:49 Ruturaj Gaikwad, Surikumar Yadav and skipper KL Rahul also contributed with the bat as
00:57 India chased down the total quite comfortably.
01:00 The game-changer for India, however, was Shami, who despite not featuring in India's first
01:06 11 plans for the World Cup, made a resounding statement with his five-wicket haul.
01:12 Shami was unstoppable in his opening spell, returning later to dismiss a well-settled
01:18 Steve Smith, greatly disturbing Australia's momentum.
01:22 The dismissal of Marcus Stoinis added another feather in his cap for the day.
01:27 For Australia, despite starts from David Warner, Steve Smith and Marnas Labushein, they failed
01:34 to convert them into big scores, affecting their team's total on the board.
01:39 Senior India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin's steady spin bowling managed to keep the Aussies
01:44 in the check while giving India key middle-overs control.
01:48 Labushein's unexpected dismissal and Cameron Green's run-out due to a miscommunication
01:54 added yet another twist to Australia's tale while they were batting.
01:59 But overall, it was Shami's magnificent bowling spell that truly stole the show in Mohali
02:04 and ultimately paved the way for India's victory.
02:08 His respective dismissals of Mitchell Marsh and Steve Smith were the highlights of the
02:12 day.
02:13 Shami's effort made it difficult for India to lose by the end of the first innings.
