5.2 overs: Gautam Gambhir also departed for a 14-ball 20 as he tried to play an inside-out shot off David Hussey. Mitchell Marsh caught at cover. When Gambhir fell, India were 47/2.

2.5 overs: Virat Kohli slammed Lee for a six. A clean hit over long-on took India to 27/1.

3.5 overs: David Warner, who was looking dangerous, departed for an entertaining 14-ball 25 with two sixes and a four. Vinay Kumar, who replaced Ashwin, removed Warner in his very first over.

3 overs: Warner took the attack to the opposition very early with 19 runs coming off Ashwin’s 2nd over. He hit 2 sixes and a four.

its not a surprise that indians are losing consistently. the urge for success and the unsatiable dream to take the team through with stellar individual shows is the key to success. as a team the indians havent synchronized well either. no smoke without fire... its very clear that groupism has affected performance. common we should not take away any credit from the awesome aussies... although pained at my countrymen not doing well.
