India vs Australia 2017, 4th ODI: 5 reasons why India were humbled in Bengaluru

#1 Brilliant opening partnership between Aaron Finch and David Warner

Finch and Warner added 231 for the first wicket

Aaron Finch and David Warner gave Australia a brilliant start in the third ODI at Indore with their 70-run partnership for the opening wicket. That turned out to be a sign of things to come.

The duo batted with a lot of composure, dealing with the Indian bowlers comfortably. Like in the previous match, Warner was the aggressor, racing away to his century. Finch gave him brilliant support by playing another brilliant innings, but this time, he fell six runs short of a century while Warner fell for 124.

The duo put on 231 runs for the first wicket which is the 3rd highest opening stand for Australia in ODIs and the 16th highest opening wicket partnership in ODIs. This partnership laid the foundation for the visitors and is probably the biggest reason behind their victory.
