India vs Australia 2nd T20I: 5 reasons why India were thrashed at Guwahati

#1. Jason Behrendorff’s brilliant spell

Jason Behrendorff gave Australia a brilliant start

In his T20I debut, Jason Behrendorff did not have much to offer as he only bowled a solitary over, conceding 5 from it. However, in his second match, he was probably the reason why Australia came out on top.

Behrendorff did not have a very good start with the ball as he was hit for two boundaries by Rohit Sharma. However, he rebounded well by trapping Sharma lbw before dismissing skipper Virat Kohli for a second-ball duck.

Behrendorff then dismissed Manish Pandey before taking his fourth wicket by getting rid of Shikhar Dhawan. The 27-year-old ended with 4/21 from his four overs and kept India in the passenger's seat from the beginning.

Behrendorff’s spell set the foundation on which the other Australian bowlers were able to limit India to a small total. Behrendorff was rightfully adjudged the Man of the Match for his brilliant bowling as Australia levelled the T20 series 1-1.
