India won the second ODI against Australia
held at Eden Gardens Kolkata today. Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav recorded
after being the third Indian to take a hat-trick wicket in ODI history. India defeated
the opponent Australia by 50 runs in the second ODI and continuing their
dominating run over the listless visitors.
Australia needed 253 to win on a sloppy pitch
but the Australian players once again failed to face Indian bowlers including Yuzvendra
Chahal (2/34) and Chinaman Yadav (3/54), who plays important role in
limiting the opponent’s score at 202 in 43.1 overs.
Kuldeep Yadav becomes
the third player along with Kapil Dev (1991) and Chetan Sharma (1987) in a
select club of Indians who have taken a hat-trick in ODI matches. The victory
was India's eighth continuous in a row in ODIs.
India's
sensational bowling performance came after captain Virat Kohli made
a better score 92 with opener Ajinkya Rahane who scored 55 helps India to take a
fine score of 252.
In the first match
Australia defeated by the Indian spinners in Chennai also in this match they seem
to be helpless here with seven batsmen recording single digit scores.
Every time Australia tried to make their way back into the match, Indian spinners responded with a breakthrough and especially by the pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar (3/9) in the early overs.
Kumar takes the important wickets of David Warner and Hilton Cartwright to leave the Australians at nine for two.
Steven Smith (59) and Travis Head (39) tried hard to score in the innings, ending up with a 76 run stand.

The left hander flicked
a full toss straight to mid-wicket to become Chahal's wicket and Australia
found them under pressure again.
Yadav takes the hat-trick by sending back Matthew Wade, Ashton Agar and Pat Cummins in as many balls to send the Eden crowd in an over. Yadav got through Wade's stumps before trapping Agar in front of the stumps to be on a hat-trick.
