The Australian captain Steve Smith said that the men in yellow went away from their plan during the first ODI against India in Chennai. India defeated Australia by 26 runs (DLS method) on Sunday.
Smith said that Australia didn’t capitalize on the good start given by Nathan Coulter-Nile and Marcus Stoinis and that MS Dhoni and Hardik Pandya batted brilliantly.
India’s leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, who picked up 3 wickets for 30 runs, said that the team was thinking of a total of around 230-240 runs.
However, MS Dhoni and Hardik Pandya’s partnership of 118 runs helped India post 281/7 in 50 overs. Due to a rain delay, the target for Australia was revised to 164 runs in 21 overs.
Chahal expressed that the turning track favoured the Indian spinners, when they were defending their total.
