Australia batted first after winning the toss and got a good start, but the Indian spin triplet made a web and restricted the Australian innings to 199 runs with their highest scorer being Steven Smith 46 off 71. In response, India lost three early wickets and were on the verge of collapse but Virat Kohli 85(116) and KL Rahul 97 not out (115) stitched a match-winning stand of 165 runs. India, thus, started their ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 campaign with a 6-wicket win over fellow favourites Australia in Chennai.
