In New Delhi, Australia won the toss and elected to bat. Opening batsmen Aaron Finch and Shaun Marsh formed a strong partnership, amassing 85 runs in just seven overs, with both contributing 49 runs each.
The second wicket fell at 128 runs, followed by a rapid succession of three more wickets after the team passed the 150-run mark. However, Ben Dunk, batting at number three, played an explosive innings, scoring 47 runs from only 21 deliveries.
