1st T20I: India Start Australia Tour With Four-Run Loss In Rain-Curtailed Match

Shikhar Dhawan's impressive 76-run knock failed to guide India past the victory line in the first T20I against Australia at the Gabba in Brisbane on Wednesday. The hosts sealed a four-run win in a rail-curtailed match to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match T20I series. After opting to bowl, India restricted Australia to 158/4 in 17 overs, reduced due to rain intervention.
