India's captain, Rohit Sharma, displayed visible frustration during their T20 World Cup match against Australia at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in Gros Islet, St Lucia. The incident occurred when Rishabh Pant, behind the stumps, missed what seemed like a straightforward catch.

India, after setting a formidable total of 205 runs, began strongly with the ball. Arshdeep Singh's dismissal of David Warner in the first over and Jasprit Bumrah's chance to take another wicket were significant moments. However, Pant's slip-up during Mitchell Marsh's opportunity left Rohit Sharma visibly disappointed.

Despite the fielding hiccup in the whole match, India clinched a convincing 24-run victory over Australia in their Super 8 encounter at the Darren Sammy International Cricket Stadium. Rohit Sharma's explosive innings of 92 runs off just 41 deliveries, including eight sixes and seven boundaries, was the highlight of India's batting performance. Suryakumar Yadav contributed a quick 31 off 16 balls, while Hardik Pandya added 27 off 17 balls.

Australia's chase was led by Travis Head's valiant 76 off 43 balls, supported by Mitchell Marsh's 42 runs. However, India's bowling attack, spearheaded by Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel, and Arshdeep Singh, proved too strong for Australia. Kuldeep Yadav's three-wicket haul and Axar Patel's exceptional fielding further tilted the game in India's favor.

India's unbeaten streak in the tournament secured their spot at the top of Group 1, setting up a semifinal clash against England, reminiscent of their 2022 encounter. Australia's chances of advancing now hinge on Afghanistan's performance against Bangladesh in the final Super 8 match.

Score Summary:

India: 205/5 in 20 overs (Rohit Sharma 92, Suryakumar Yadav 31; Pat Cummins 2-44)

Australia: 181/7 in 20 overs (Travis Head 76, Mitchell Marsh 42; Kuldeep Yadav 3-29)
