India vs Australia 2017, 5th ODI: 5 reasons why India won at Nagpur

#4. Australia's struggles during the death

Stoinis could not play very aggressively late on

Australia were off to a steady start but following the dismissals of Aaron Finch, David Warner, and skipper Steve Smith, their run-rate began to gradually dip.

The likes of Travis Head and Marcus Stoinis weren’t able to elevate the scoring rate of the Australia, which at one time, was close to 6.

Stoinis and Head did add 87 for the fifth wicket but the partnership came from 112 balls. Following the departure of the two, Matthew Wade and James Faulkner could not contribute much. Had a little aggression been shown by the middle-order batsmen, Australia could have easily crossed at least the 275-run mark.
