IND W V AUS W: Our Bowlers Missed A Trick Or Two, Says Australia Allrounder Tahlia McGrath
Tahlia McGrath: Praising the Indian bowlers for their brilliant performance on the opening day of the only Test of the multi-format series on Thursday, Tahlia McGrath said the Australian bowlers missed a trick or two as India wrested the initiative with a strong opening stand.
McGrath, who struck a counter-attacking 56-ball 50 and along with opener Beth Mooney added 80 runs for the third wicket, said the Australian batters were not able to forge enough partnerships and set up a big score.
The Indian bowlers led by Pooja Vastrakar (4-53) and Sneh Rana (3-56) dominated the Australian batters as they bundled out the visitors for 219 at the Wankhede Stadium before the openers Ssmriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma dug another nail in the coffin by raising 90 runs for the opening wicket. Though Shafali was out for 40, India were on top at 98/1 at stumps, 121 runs behind Australia with nine wickets in hand.
