New Delhi: It was a dream start to the T20I series for India as pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar, after being hit for two successfive fours, swung it perfectly to outfox Australia's stand-in skipper David Warner in the very first over of the match, leavning the tourists at 8 for one after the first six deliveries.

As usual, Virat Kohli gave the new ball to Bhuvneshwar. He swung the first two deliveries in, even resulting in a loud appeal for an LBW off the second. He then changed his angle to dish out a bit of width to the off side and Warner elegantly cut both the deliveries through the point region for boundaries.
But Bhuvneshwar bounced back bowling another outswinger, but this time there wasn't any width, just an inch outside the off stump. Warner once again looked for a cut but the ball ricocheted off a thick inside edge to castle into the middle stump. Warner walked out scoring just eight runs.
