India and Australia were played a warm-up game on October 18 ahead of T20 World Cup. Chasing down 187 runs, Australia were bundled out for 180 runs in the final over.
Speaking after the game, Aaron Finch who scored 70 off 54 balls looked a bit disappointed.
“Happy (with his own innings). Nice to get a few out of the middle. Would’ve been nice to get us over the line. Can’t win the World Cup in a practice game (laughs),” Finch said.
Playing against New Zealand and at SCG will always be special said Finch
“We learned that we need to be clinical towards the back-end, we didn’t capitalize towards the end. We did drag them back after that blistering start from KL, happy with my own form. He’s fantastic (on Kane Richardson), every opportunity he gets for Australia, he’s there performing, that shows the depth of our pace bowling unit. 22nd will be a great day, looking to start off on a winning note, playing against New Zealand and at the SCG will be always special,” the Aussie skipper added.
