‘Look at the history, instead of disintegrating under pressure, we blossom,’ Australia ready for war with India after 36 hours

New Delhi. After the defeat against Afghanistan, Australia’s path to reach the T20 World Cup semi-finals has become a bit difficult. If Australia had won this match, it would have given India a semi-final ticket along with it, but this did not happen. Afghanistan caused a major upset in the World Cup by defeating Australia by 21 runs in its second Super 8 match. The Australian team will face India only after 36 hours. This match is do-or-die for him. However, despite the defeat against Afghanistan, Australian captain Mitchell Marsh says that there is no pressure of any kind on his team and his team performs best under pressure.

Australia will now not only have to register a win in their final match of Super 8 against India (IND vs AUS) but will also have to maintain a good net run rate. Mitchell Marsh told reporters, ‘This is an important match. Which will be against India. In this we will have to register victory at any cost. If we look at the history of our team, our players perform their best under pressure. Our players will definitely be fully prepared for this. Things are clear for us now. We have to trust ourselves. We have very good players and I believe that we have been performing at our best against the best teams. We have to forget everything and move forward and give our best performance.

Team India can get semi-final ticket today, Australia’s victory against Afghanistan will help in getting the job done.

Australia’s streak of 8 consecutive wins broken
Australia’s 8-match winning campaign in T20 international cricket came to an end due to the defeat against Afghanistan. According to Mitchell Marsh, ‘We have to bounce back from this defeat. We have great confidence in these players. Our team is very good but today was not our day but the positive thing is that we are getting a chance to make a comeback within 36 hours.
