Australia beat India in 2nd ODI, win series 

Dhaka (Nov 29, 2020): Australia won by 51 runs against India in the second one-day international match at Sydney Cricket Ground on Sunday.

Aussie gave India a mammoth target of 390 runs to win the match and save the series as well. But India failed to do so. Captain Virat Kohli and KL Rahul have shown some efforts that ultimately took India’s score to 338 runs. 

Earlier, Australia won the toss and decided to bat first.

Riding on Steve Smith second consecutive centuries Aussie made 389 runs losing only four wickets.

Openers – David Warner and Aaron Finch – made 142 run opening stand that set the tone for the rest of Aussie batsmen. Warner made blistering 83 runs from 77 balls and his partner captain Finch scored 60 runs of 69 deliveries.

Aaron Finch said he is very pleased to wrap the series in two wins. 

Virat Kohli said they were completely outplayed by Australia. 

“I think with the ball we were not that effective. Didn't hit the areas we wanted to consistently. They've got a strong batting lineup and know the angles,” Kohli said in a post-match briefing. 

Steve Smith was the man of the match.
