How much can one partnership change the fortunes of a tour? How much can your first win as a touring team, after suffering two back-toback losses, help you find momentum? These questions should be answered on Friday, when, in the second leg of their tour Down Under, India take on Australia in the opening game of a three-match T20 International series at the Manuka Oval in Canberra.
Having been outplayed in the first two ODIs, India looked set to suffer a clean sweep when they lost half their side with 152 on the board, in 32 overs, in the final ODI at Canberra on Wednesday, before an unbeaten 152-run stand for the sixth wicket between Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja turned the tide. India scored 302 and won by 13 runs. The fact that the venue of their fightback, which happened only 48 hours earlier, remains the same, should help the visitors psychologically.
From a bunch which seemed to be plagued by problems — lack of a sixth bowling option, bowlers who can’t bat, key bowlers in bad form — the tourists, going into a format in which the tour should have started in the first place considering that it followed the IPL, suddenly look like a far more dangerous bunch.
