NEW DELHI (Reuters) - When T20 cricket is increasingly influencing batting approach in one-day internationals, India moved the other way on Sunday and adopted a test match approach to accomplish a nervy chase in their low-scoring World Cup opener against Australia.
A day after South Africa overcame Sri Lanka in a 754-run slugfest in New Delhi, bowlers dominated in Chennai where India bundled out Australia for 199 but endured a top order collapse of their own before prevailing by six wickets.
