On October 8, India and Australia squared off at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai for Game Five of the current ODI World Cup. After winning the toss and deciding to bat first, Australia started the much anticipated match.
Australia’s celebration was ruined when Mitchell Marsh was dismissed for a duck after David Warner and Marsh took the strike to start the innings. Virat Kohli made a spectacular diving catch after Bumrah’s excellent delivery delivered the ball directly into his hands.
