The first T20I didn’t go as expected for India as Australia took 1-0 lead in the 2-match series by chasing down the target on the final delivery. India’s middle-order problems continued as they lost their way from 69/1 in the 9th over to 126/7 in 20 overs. The hosts could take the positives from the game with respect to their bowling as they put themselves into a winning position from a stage where the Aussies were not so far from winning the game by an 8-wicket margin.
