INDORE (India): Shubman Gill scored his fifth hundred of the year while Shreyas Iyer hit a timely ton under pressure as India beat Australia by 99 runs in the second ODI against Australia here on Sunday.
Gill (104 off 97 balls) and Iyer (105 off 90 balls) shared a stroke-filled 200-run stand off 164 balls before Suryakumar Yadav (72 not out off 37 balls) showed his aggression to fire India to 399 for five.
It was India’s highest total against Australia in ODIs.
Skipper K.L. Rahul chipped in with 52 off 38 balls.
Rain stopped play for the second time in the game when Australia were 56 for two in nine overs. With the revised target of 317 in 33 overs, they fell further behind in the game and ended with 217 all out in 28.2 overs.
