11:54 AM IST Presentation Time...

11:54 AM IST Australia needed early wickets in the Powerplay, and while they did manage to grab a couple, they conceded far too many runs in the process. They couldn’t build sustained pressure or string together enough quiet overs, and a few missed chances only added to their woes - something rarely seen from them. Amidst all this, Nathan Ellis was a major positive, showcasing excellent variations to claim three wickets. Marcus Stoinis and Xavier Bartlett chipped in with one each, but Australia were probably 15–20 runs short of what could have made a real difference.
