Rain came. Dhoni's tactics and plans went awry. Ashwin and Jadeja bowled awfully. Australia posted a healthy score. Our batsmen came a cropper again. India lost.
Heartening factor of the match was Vinay Kumar. He bowled beautifully. He was lucky to get away with some bad deliveries as well. But overall it was the reward for his hard work, consistency and desire to do well. He has had a bad debut in Test Cricket, but every bowler was thrashed in that match. To bounce back from such a thrashing and perform well in 2 T20 matches and this one day match is a tribute to Vinay's work ethic and ability to bowl within his limitations. Hope he does well.
Ashwin is 25 years old, but even 38 year old players run and field better than him. On any given day he is a liability on field. Only way to cover up this liability is to bowl well. And he continues to disappoint. Just looks confused at what length and speed to bowl at. He better pull up his socks.
Our batsmen need to fire. Youngsters may take 2-3 matches to get into groove. Let us see how they perform after the initial stages of this tri-series.
Off to Perth now.
