TOSS: INDIA WON THE TOSS AND ELECTED TO BAT

 

India have one foot in the semifinals and would like to sign off the Super Six stage with a statement win. The Rhinos are out of contention but would like to show their prowess by matching up against a strong India line-up.

 


TOSS: WEST INDIES WON THE TOSS AND ELECTED TO FIELD

The Boys in Maroon backed their skipper's call with exceptional work early in the innings. Australia had lost five wickets by 87, including key batters such as Harry Dixon and captain Hugh Weibgen.

A classy knock from Sam Konstas to help Australia get back on their feet.

He added 89 along with Raf MacMillan, before the latter was brilliantly caught by Stephan Pascal at point. Konstas' kept going from his end and managed a hundred.

His efforts helped Australia to 227.

A win today would ensure that Australia top Group 2 of the Super Six stage, thus taking on the No 2 contender from Group 1.

West Indies would need to be at their very best, taking inspiration from their success against England and Sri Lanka, to upend a charged-up Australia.
