Fa 3rd round cup draw

Highlights: Ind vs Aus 3rd ODI: Adam Zampa picked the wickets of MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli. © Twitter A valiant century by captain Virat Kohli went in vain as India lost by 32 runs against Australia at the Jharkhand State Cricket Association Stadium in Ranchi. Chasing a stiff target of 314 runs, India lost the opening batsmen Shikhar Dhawan (1) and Rohit Sharma (14) cheaply with the score reading 15/2. Ambati Rayudu once again failed to score big as he was clean bowled by Pat Cummins for 2. India were tottering at 27/3 when Kohli was joined by MS Dhoni at the crease. They added 59 runs for the fourth wicket before Adam Zampa dismissed Dhoni for 26. Kedar Jadhav (26) then stitched together an 88-run partnership with Kohli to keep India alive in the run-chase. However, following the dismissal of Kohli on 123 off 95 (16 fours, 1 six), Indian batsmen failed to catch-up with the required run-rate.

Smith labelled Reed a cheat after the Texan was penalised two strokes during a tournament last week for improving his lie when he moved sand with his practise swing. Reed denied it was intentional, with Smith calling the justification “bulls**t”. “I don’t have sympathy for anyone that cheats,” Smith said at the time. “If you make a mistake once maybe you can understand but to give a bit of a bullshit response like the camera angle, I mean, that’s pretty up there. “I know Pat pretty good and he’s always been nice to me so I don’t want to say anything bad about him but for anyone that is cheating the rules, I’m not up for that.” Smith said their friendship appeared over after Reed ignored him during the practice rounds, adding there was “tension” between the pair.

(CNN)US team captain Tiger Woods promised his side is still "ready to go" despite falling 4-1 behind on the opening day of the Presidents Cup. Partnered with Justin Thomas, Woods secured his team's only victory in the fourballs session as the International team established a healthy lead at Royal Melbourne, Australia. However, the 15-time major champion believes his US outfit can come back against Ernie Els' side, which features the cream of players outside Europe. "This is a long four days. I mean, we have to go earn this Cup. Just because we lost the session doesn't mean the Cup's over," Woods told reporters. "There's a long way to go. A lot of points available. The guys will regroup and we'll come out tomorrow ready to go."
