India vs Australia Memes: India defeated Australia in the 2nd T20I of the 5-match series on Sunday in Thiruvananthapuram, to take a 2-0 lead in the series, following their win in the 1st T20I in Vizag three days ago.
After being asked to bat first, the hosts piled up 235 runs on the board. Ruturaj Gaikwad scored 58 runs in 43 balls, managing a strike rate of 134 – which was the lowest among all the Indian 6 batters who got to bat today.
First, while Jaiswal smashed 53 (25) in the powerplay, Gaikwad only scored 15 (10) in the opening partnership. Then, even as Ishan Kishan struggled initially, Ruturaj Gaikwad failed to accelerate despite having spent time in the middle already. Thankfully, then, Kishan got going and ended with 52 runs in 32 balls. Captain Suryakumar Yadav hit 19 runs in 10 balls before Rinku Singh blasted 31 runs in 9 balls. Even Tilak Varma whacked 7 runs in only 2 balls.
Rinku Singh’s bashing at the end helped India reach 235, which looked like it could be chased down when Marcus Stoinis and Tim David were going all guns blazing in their partnership of 81 (38).
However, the Indian bowlers kept their calm, especially Ravi Bishnoi, who ended with, once again, impressive figures of 3/32. Bishnoi’s wickets included Matthew Short, Josh Inglis, and Tim David. Batting David and Stoinis, no Aussie batter got going today. Skipper Wade hit four sixes in the end, but it was too late by then as India wrapped up another win in a home bilateral series.

Rinku Singh said: “(How to stay calm?) I bat in this number a lot so I am calm knowing this position. (What thinking goes on when bowlers are also experimenting in the death) I like to play each ball according to where it lands. I try to notice whether its a slower ball or fast ball, and I respond accordingly. (This dressing room) I am enjoying with everyone.
“Feeling good. (Your role?) Finishing only. I know I’ll get 5-6 overs sometimes or maybe 2 overs sometimes. (How are you prepping?) That’s exactly how I practice. As if I’m batting in the last five. That’s what VVS sir has also told me to play in the nets.”
