Chasing the target, Australia couldn't be in the game after losing their early wickets in the form of David Warner, Marnus Labuschagne and Mitchell Marsh. Travis Head had retired hurt. There was a little hope for Australia to make comeback in the game after Alex Carey played a massive knock of (99) runs but it wasn't enough for Australia as lower-order batters could not stay long.
