Australia made a
couple of changes to their playing eleven – Tim Zoehrer and Craig McDermott
made way for Greg [who was playing his first One-D(a)yer] and Dave Gilbert.
India made three changes to their playing eleven – Sunil Gavaskar, Chetan Sharma and Roger Binny made way for Madan Lal, One-day International debutant Rudra Pratap Singh (the Uttar Pradesh right-arm medium-pacer) and Gopal Sharma.
It was a 47-overs-a-side match. On winning the toss, Kapil Dev, India’s skipper, put the Australians in. David Boon scored 26. His 40-ball innings included a couple of boundaries. He was caught by Dev. Lal broke the 55-run stand.
The second-wicket stand was worth 23. Geoff Marsh scored 30. His 52-ball innings included a boundary and a six. He was run out. Allan Border, the Aussie skipper, faced 10 balls. He wasn’t in seventh heaven, because he was caught by Raman Lamba. Ravi Shastri broke the third-wicket partnership, which was worth 33.
Dean Jones scored 48. His 63-ball innings included three boundaries and a six. He was caught by Lal. Shastri broke the fourth-wicket stand, which was worth 15. Greg Matthews scored 20. His 32-ball innings included a boundary and a six. He was caught by Maninder Singh. Sharma broke the 33-run stand.
Greg Ritchie scored 75. His 53-ball innings included seven boundaries and three sixes. He was stumped by Chandrakant Pandit. Dev broke the sixth-wicket partnership, which was worth 83. Steve Waugh scored 25. His 34-ball innings included four boundaries. He was unbeaten.
India conceded 11 extras. Australia scored 242 for the loss of six wickets off 47 overs. Rudra Pratap Singh bowled four overs, including a maiden. He conceded 19. He was wicketless, as was Maninder, who bowled seven overs. He conceded 42.
Sharma bowled seven overs, conceding 38. He picked up a wicket, as did Lal (who bowled nine overs, conceding 60) and Dev (whose 10-over spell, which included a maiden, yielded 40). Shastri, who bowled 10 overs, conceded 36. He picked up a couple of scalps.
Krishnamachari Srikkanth scored nine. His 14-ball innings included a couple of boundaries. Bruce Reid broke the 18-run stand. Lamba scored 20. His 36-ball innings included a couple of boundaries. He was unbeaten, as was Mohammad Azharuddin, who scored eight. His 14-ball innings included a couple of boundaries.
Australia conceded four extras. The Indians had scored just 41 for the loss of one wicket off 10.4 overs. Gilbert, who bowled an over, conceded a run. He was wicketless, as was Simon Davis, who bowled 5.4 overs. He conceded 17. Reid, who bowled four overs, conceded 20. He picked up the only wicket to fall.
There was no result, because the match was washed out by a thunderstorm. The six-match series was level 1-1.
