“Indians Came Hard At…”: Australia Captain Matthew Wade After Loss In First T20I

Following his side’s two-wicket loss to India, Australian skipper Matthew Wade said that the Men in Blue came hard at them and they failed to nail their yorkers. Half-centuries by Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan helped India secure a two-wicket win over Australia in the first T20I of a five-match series at Visakhapatnam on Thursday. “It was a good match in the end. Inglis got us a score we thought we could defend but the Indians came hard at us.

“These young Indians play a lot of IPL and T20 cricket. Thought we bowled pretty well, just could not nail our yorkers, easier said than done especially on a small ground like this. A lot of positives to take out from this game. Inglis was class. We thought we did fairly well, Ellis bowled a big over for us to take it into the final over, it went down to the last ball so it shows how close it was,” Matthew Wade said in the post-match presentation.
