Aussies Battle for a Winning Start
Bookies struggled to separate the teams going into Friday’s 1st One Day International match and they were shrewd to take up position on the fence as, right up until the last ball, the game looked like it could go either way. Pakistan started and put up a respectable 280-5 (50.0). A score that was capable of winning the match and one that would take all the chasing down, but their opponents managed it with a little to spare.
Australia responded with an eye-catching 281-2 (49.0), enough to hand them the victory by eight wickets. The final scoreboard suggested it was a hard-fought encounter that hung in the balance for long periods of time and that was a fair reflection of how the afternoon went. The Aussies had to roll up their sleeves to get themselves across the line but in doing so their impressed pundits and fans alike, while winning over a few critics who had been quick to stick the boot in when the going got tough. There’s more to come from this team too.
Australia looked down and out for the best part of 2018 following the ball-tampering scandal that shook Australian cricket to its core. Heads rolled at the governing body in an attempt to appease fans, there was accusations and counter accusations from both sides of the gaping divide, an independent review couldn’t really make heads or tails of it all, saying there was blame on both parts and neutrals hoped for a resolution.
