ODI World Cup: A stunning 165-run partnership off 215 balls between KL Rahul (97 not out) and Virat Kohli (85) carried India to a memorable six-wicket win over Australia to start their 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup campaign on a high at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Sunday.

In the afternoon, Ravindra Jadeja spun a vicious web of left-arm spin mastery while picking an outstanding 3-28 as Indian spinners took six wickets collectively to bowl out Australia for just 199 in 49.3 overs. In response, Australia caused early jitters in the Indian camp by reducing them to 2-3 in two overs, making it the first time three Indian batters in top four were out for ducks.
