IND vs AUS, Cricket World Cup 2023: Josh Hazlewood speaks on Virat Kohli's dropped catch
Australian pacer Josh Hazlewood doesn't believe Virat Kohli's dropped catch when he was batting on 12 in their ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 match in Chennai ended Australia's chances.
"No, I don't think so, it was quite early obviously when that catch was dropped but we still felt that new ball was doing enough, whether it was in the air or off the wicket. We knew that spin was going to be tough to play, maybe not as tough as during the day, but still enough to play it. And we certainly felt in the game for quite a while until obviously the partnership grew and grew and they sort of batted us out of it obviously. And yeah, I thought we did a reasonable job early in particular trying to defend 200," Hazlewood, who claimed 3 wickets vs India, said after the match.

IND vs AUS, Cricket World Cup 2023: Steve Smith's wicket was turning point, says Ravindra Jadeja
All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja turned the match around for Team India with three quick wickets in the middle of the innings. However, the left-arm spinner said that Steve Smith's wicket was the 'turning point' in the match.
"I think that was the turning moment, you know, when you get a wicket like Steve Smith from there onwards it was not easy to just come in and rotate the strike for the new batter. So, I think that I would say that wicket was the turning point. From there onwards, they were 119 – 3 and 199 all out. I think, yeah, I would say that was the turning point. And yeah, it helped me, because I knew the conditions in Chennai. I've been playing here for like 10-11 years so I know the how conditions in this ground. So, I think I enjoyed and whatever I contribute to the team I always feel happy," Jadeja said after India's win over Australia
LIVE India Vs Australia Cricket World Cup 2023 Score: India Captain Rohit Sharma
"Pretty exciting. Good feeling to come out on top. It was a good game to start the tournament for us. I thought it was magnificent, especially the fielding and we saw the effort from everyone today, conditions like this it would be tough. Our bowlers used the conditions perfectly and we knew there would be assistance for everyone, even the seamers got some reverse, the spinners bowled in the nice areas and all in all it was a great effort. I was (nervous), you don't want to start your innings like that, credit to the Aussies bowlers as they bowled in good areas but some loose shots as well, when you have that kind of target you want to score as much as possible in the powerplay, but credit to Virat and KL on how they went about the chase. That is going to be the challenge for us as a team, moving to different conditions and adapting, whoever suits the conditions will have to come and do the job. Chennai never disappoints, they love their cricket and for them to sit in that heat and come out and cheer for the team says a lot."
LIVE India Vs Australia Cricket World Cup 2023 Score: Australia Captain Pat Cummins
"At least 50 odd. It was tough, trying to defend anything under 200.. It was a really good bowling attack and their spinners made it tough work out there. I wasn't too upset, we had 20 overs of spin but some more runs on the board would have made the difference. I have already forgotten about it, it happens, 4/10 would have been a dream start. He is a class bowler and posses a lot of questions, stays in that area and was fantastic today. We have to review this one, absolutely a tough surface, but what if we are up against it then what to do we do differently. Just one game out of nine, not too much to ponder about but there are some areas we need to get better."
LIVE India Vs Australia Cricket World Cup 2023 Score: KL Rahul After Winning Player of the Match
"Quite honestly not a lot of conversation, I thought I’d get a good shower and get a break. I was just trying to get my breath back. Virat said there’s a bit in the wicket, so play like Test cricket for a while. There was a bit of help for the pacers with the new ball, and then the spinners also. In the last 15-20 overs, dew played a part and that helped quite a bit. The ball also skidded on better. However, it was a bit two-paced, it wasn’t the easiest of wickets to bat on and it wasn’t flat as well. It was a good cricket wicket, bit for the batters and the bowlers. That’s what you get in the south of India, especially Chennai. (On the last six) I hit it too well, I just calculated how to get to a 100 in the end. The only way for four and a six, but no qualms on not getting to that hundred."

Hello and Welcome to our LIVE coverage of India vs Australia ICC ODI Cricket World Cup 2023 match no. 5 in Chennai.
ICC ODI Cricket World Cup 2023: Team India got their ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 campaign off to a winning start, with a six wicket win over five-time champions Australia at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Sunday. KL Rahul (97 not out) and Virat Kohli (85) resurrected the Indian innings after they had slippe for 2 for 3 in the second over, chasing 200 to win.
Then, Kohli and Rahul formed a partnership that showcased their collective experience and ability to thrive under pressure. Although Kohli got a lifeline when Marsh dropped him at 12 off Hazlewood, the rest of their partnership was virtually flawless. They weathered the initial storm from the pacers, deftly handled Maxwell's spin, and built their innings from there. Both batsmen reached their respective fifties, ultimately establishing India's highest partnership against Australia in World Cup history. While they came close to sealing the deal, Kohli's departure while attempting to challenge Australia's top bowler, Hazlewood, added a twist. However, Rahul remained composed until the end, delivering the winning runs and securing India's victory.
