1st ODI: Australia beat India by 66 runs

Hosts Australia on Friday pulled off a 66-run win, in the 1st ODI against India at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Hardik Pandya's 90 off 76 balls and Shikhar Dhawan's 74 off 86 weren't enough to help India but failed to chase down the massive target of 375 set by Australia powered by Steve Smith and Aaron Finch hundreds. Both the batsmen were dismissed in quick succession by leg-spinner Adam Zampa which crushed India’s hopes.

India got off to a fine start in the chase with Dhawan and Mayank Agarwal adding 53 runs for the first wicket. But Mayank suffered a soft dismissal at the hands of seamer Josh Hazlewood and he had to walk back for 22. Skipper Virat Kohli got a lifeline as he was dropped by Zampa, but Hazlewood got rid of the India captain and Shreyas Iyer in the same over, as India slipped to 80/3 in 9.5 overs.  India posted 308/8 in 50 overs, losing the match by 66 runs.

Earlier, after winning the toss and electing to bat, Australia captain Aaron Finch and his Steve Smith struck confident yet contrasting hundreds on a flat track to lead hosts Australia to a commanding 374 for 6. Finch’s 114-run innings, that came off 124 balls, had nine fours and two sixes while Smith took 66 balls for his 105-run knock, embellished with 11 fours and four sixes.
