India vs Australia 2017, 1st ODI: Hits and Misses

#5 Hit: Nathan Coulter Nile

The Australian pace attack will miss the services of regular first-team bowlers like Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood in this series.

Nathan Coulter Nile was one of the changes that were incorporated in the team squad following their unavailability, and has responded to the challenge beautifully.

The 29-year-old breathed fire in his first spell of the innings, and scalped three quick wickets on the trot. Rahane was his first victim, who edged the delivery outside off-stump to the slip quadrant.

It was then followed by Coulter Nile's moment of the game, where he dismissed Kohli in the very next cover, courtesy a sensational catch from Glenn Maxwell at point. He also took the wicket of Manish Pandey in the same over to cap a sensational spell of pace bowling from the Australian.
