Ind Aus ODI 4: India On Field First At Mohali
Sreelata Yellamrazu | Nov 2 2009

Just when Shane Watson was looking to cut loose, he was sent back to leave Australia at eighty-eight for two at the end of eighteen overs in the fourth ODI in the India Australia ODI series.
Indian captain, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, won the toss and decided India would field first. While the decision would shock some, perhaps Dhoni does not want to take chance with the possibility of the dew factor playing its part.
Gautam Gambhir’s neck injury has left him out, giving Virat Kohli another chance. But the good news for India is that Virender Sehwag has been declared fit and he would be valuable from the standpoint that the Mohali pitch promises runs and India could chase a big target.
Australia also brought back Shaun Marsh and dropped Adam Voges which should have bolstered the opening slot. But the Kings XI Punjab Mohali cricketer in the IPL could not trouble the scorers much, and Watson appeared to have taken the reins before Harbhajan Singh struck and Dhoni completed the catching deeds.
