London: Despite two convincing victories at the ICC World Cup 2019, India are not thinking too far about qualifying for the semi-finals, captain Virat Kohli said after the team’s 36-run victory over Australia on Sunday (June 9).

London: The ‘zing’ bails used at the ICC World Cup 2019 have reprieved batsmen with the bails not falling off even after ball hitting the stumps.

Later, in the post-match press conference, Kohli was asked about the incident and he explained what happened. India won the match by 36 runs.

'The other major plus for India is that Yuzvendra Chahal is in superb form and that makes a big difference because he gets wickets with his spin in the middle overs,' wrote Kris Srikkanth after India's win over Australia in the ICC World Cup 2019

'We were more motivated to win today because of the fact that we lost the series in India, being 2-0 up, and there was no Mitchell Starc, either. So him coming in makes their bowling lineup even stronger,' Virat Kohli said after defeating Austraila in the ICC World Cup 2019 match

India halted Australia’s 10-ODI winning streak and also ended their record of not losing a World Cup game while chasing since the 1999 edition. It was Shikhar Dhawan's ton which took the 'men in blue' to 352/5 and later bowlers delivered

While both teams are evenly matched are favourites to lift the trophy, here is a look at some of the key battles which could have a bearing on the outcome.

'Having played India so much recently, we sometimes let Virat (Kohli) get off to a bit of a flier and let them get off the hook early. Once he gets into a rhythm he’s so hard to stop and you can’t afford to play catch up against great players and Rohit (Sharma) is the same,' said Aaron Finch ahead of their ICC World Cup 2019 game against India

London: Chetan Narula previews India versus Australia for MyNation. On Sunday (June 9), it is a clash of two pre-tournament favourites, the first in this World Cup 2019. Australia come on the back of a superb come-from-the-brink win against West Indies. Their batting has its weaknesses but their bowling is strong. India have a strong bowling attack too, including two wrist-spinners. This could be a straight clash between the two attacks, with batting taking a side show at The Oval. Middle order will be key for both sides.

'We've had success against each other. We had success in Australia, they had success in India recently. But again, tomorrow's game will all depend on how we play on that particular day,' said Rohti Sharma on the eve of the ICC World Cup 2019 contest between India and Australia

In the last series, the Australians effectively nullified India's spin twins Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal on the flat sub-continental decks, sans Daivd Warner and Steve Smith. Now, India face a big test against the Australians in the ICC World Cup 2019

Twitter users were confused as a school where Virat Kohli studied sent soil to the Indian captain to "bless" him at the ongoing ICC World Cup 2019 in England and Wales
