Australia vs India, 1st ODI at Sydney, IND in AUS, Jan 12 2019 - Match Result

Australia go 1-0 up in the three match series. The next game is in Adelaide on Tuesday. On behalf of all the team thanks for your company tonight. Look out for Andrew McGlashan's post-game coverage from the SCG. For now goodbye, and hopefully we see you Tuesday.

9.37pm Presentation Virat Kohli: "We're not very pleased with the way we played. I think we were fine with the ball. That wicket was 300 plus par. I think we did well with the ball. We thought 288 was quite gettable. Losing three wickets upfront is never good. I thought Rohit was outstanding and MS supported him but I thought we could have done better with the tempo of the game and we fell short. They took the game deep to give us a chance. MS got out at that stage. That put pressure on Rohit. One more good partnership and we would have got close. But losing three wickets up front was the problem and Australia were professional enough not to let us back in. I think we have to take it as a day when Australia played better than us. We're not too stressed about results. I think days like these make you aware of things you have to work on as a team."

Aaron Finch: "Very pleased. We knew that they'd try and take it deep and luckily we were able to take wickets and stem the flow. I thought we were around par. I thought with the earlier start, dew wouldn't come in. We felt the wicket would slow up a bit so I thought it was par. I thought the partnership between Khawaja and Marsh set us up and Pete Handscomb payed a gem. Anytime you get a team three down early and three big guns it's very important. I thought Jason handled his nerves brilliantly. And then the youngster Jhye is full of confidence and he's got a bright future ahead of him. There's always room to improve."

Jhye Richardson is Player of the Match for his career best 4 for 26. Richardson "Credit to them. They gave us a run through the middle. But like Finchy said when you get teams three down that's what you aim for. Getting (Kohli) is one that I'm going to treasure for a long time. But more happy to get the win."

Australia win by 34 runs. An upset to start the series. Australia defend 288 despite a magnificent century from Rohit Sharma. India were 3 for 4 early, Behrendorff and Richardson striking upfront. Richardson removed Kohli and Rayudu. Rohit and Dhoni rebuilt. But Dhoni was unfortunate to be given out LBW and the chase never recovered despite Rohit making 133.

Stoinis to finish

Girish: "The last 10 overs of the Aussie innings was the game changer. 93 of the last 10 overs took the team to a defend-able total. Kudos to Aussie bowlers Jhye & Jason (J&J) for performing brilliantly."

Alan : "where are the big mouths that were bemoaning Australia innings?" They paced it superbly. They understood this pitch was slower than it looked

Career best figures for Jhye Rochardson. Superb effort
