The captain's decision proved wrong at the same time when both the openers were out early and the third wicket fell in the powerplay itself.

Venkatesh Iyer led the team to victory by playing a stormy innings, but the hero in bowling was Mitchell Starc. Starc took 2 wickets. Andre Russell got 3 wickets.
