IND vs AUS 1st ODI Perth LIVE Score Updates: Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have disappointed on their India comebacks, departing against Australia in the first ODI at Perth. Shubman Gill was also dismissed by Ellis. Rohit fell early, caught at slip off Josh Hazlewood, while Kohli was dismissed for an eight-ball duck by Mitchell Starc.
Earlier, Australia skipper Mitchell Marsh won the toss and opted to field in the first match of the three-game series. India’s XI featured all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy, who earned his maiden ODI cap.
That responsibility now rests on the young shoulders of Shubman Gill, who will make his debut as India’s ODI captain. Having already taken over the Test captaincy from Rohit, the 25-year-old will be eager to lead by example and prove his credentials in Australia.
