David Warner and Steve Smith hit half-
centuries to give Australia a solid start against the Netherlands in a World
Cup clash on Wednesday.
Five-time winners Australia lost Mitchell Marsh (nine) in the fourth over
after they elected to bat first at New Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium.
The left-handed Warner, who clubbed 163 last time out against Pakistan, and
Smith hit back and soon took control over a Dutch side who had stunned South
Africa earlier in the tournament.
Warner hit a six and four to reach his fifty in 40 balls while Smith raised
his first fifty of this World Cup in 53 balls.
Australia reached 123-1 after 20 overs.
