An exciting 1st match of the series between hosts Australia and England ended in a win for the host team in Adelaide as take a 1-0 lead in the 3 match series.
The first match of the 3 match series was played at the Adelaide Oval in Adelaide where the England bat first. It was terrible start for visiting team as they had lost 4 wickets for 66 runs in 13 overs only. But then, Dawid Malan played an instrumental knock and guided England to a total of 287 runs. He scored 134 runs in that.
However, England bowlers were no match to Australia’s batting capabilities. Travis Head and David Warner forged a 147 runs partnership before the former was dismissed. Warner was too dismissed for 86 runs. But then Steve Smith added a further 80 and Alex Carey and Cameron Green saw the team through to the victory by 6 wickets.
Meanwhile, the match was quite exciting due to many factors. One of them for sure was when Jos Buttler was heard on stump mic saying to Cameron Green that a big IPL auction is coming and he is chasing the ink, signalling to him his demand among the teams.
Cameron Green has really impressed everyone with his performance over the last couple of months and is in huge demand before his maiden appearance in the IPL Player Auction.
This was EPIC…
