India vs Australia: Surreal experience to represent country, says Natarajan

Pacer T Natarajan on Thursday said it was a 'surreal experience to represent the country' after making his ODI debut in the third game against Australia at the Manuka Oval in Canberra.The speedster from Tamil Nadu gained popularity in the latest edition of Indian Premier League where he was labelled as the 'yorker machine'. Natarajan played for Kings XI Punjab and bagged 16 wickets in as many games in the 13th edition of the cash-rich league.His performance in the IPL handed him an India call-up. He was first included in the shortest format squad and later on added as back-up in the ODI side by the BCCI. This decision was taken as pacer Navdeep Saini complained of back spasm."It was a surreal experience to represent the country. Thanks to everyone for your wishes. Looking forward for more challenges," Natarajan tweeted.India skipper Virat Kohli handed the cap to the 29-year-old bowler before the match.

Michael Vaughan feels India will lose to Australia in all formats

Former England captain and staunch critic of Indian cricket team, Michael Vaughan predicted that Virat Kohli's men will lose to Australia in all three formats of the tour which began on Friday. India made a disastrous start to the tour with a 66-run loss against Australia in the opening ODI but more importantly looked out of sorts as a unit. "Early call ... I think Australia will beat India this tour in all formats convincingly," Vaughan tweeted on Friday. Vaughan didn't like the "old school" mentality of playing five specialist bowlers which backfired badly. "This Indian ODI team is too (sic) old school for me .... Just 5 bowling options & the batting isn't deep enough," he further tweeted. Friday's ODI saw India taking more than four hours to finish their quota of overs and Vaughan wasn't too amused. "India's over rate is appalling ... !!! Body language defensive ... fielding is my standard (shocking) ... Bowling ordinary !!! "Aussies on the other hand have been outstanding .
