Other than Steve Smith, no one was able to get to grips with the bowlers, as the Chahal and then Yadav spun the match into India’s favor. Yadav went on to become only the third Indian bowler to get a Hat-Trick in ODIs, after Chetan Sharma and Kapil Dev.

His first wicket was Matthew Wade, as the Aussie keeper chopped the ball back on to his stumps. After Wade’s dismissal, Kohli was quick to slip in a word or two as the Indian skipper gave the batsman a verbal send-off.

Things had got heated between Kohli and Wade earlier in the day, when Kohli sneaked in a run after Wade was apparently injured. The Aussie keeper was visibly in some discomfort, and was not happy with Kohli.
Before the next over, the pair were seen talking animatedly over the run as Wade felt that Kohli did not show enough sportsman spirit in that instance. Kohli defended himself though, as he was well within his rights to take that run.
Clearly there was no love lost between the pair of them last night!
