India Masters beat Australia Masters by 94 runs in the semi-final clash at the IML 2025, which was taking place at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur on Thursday.
A dominant bowling performance led by Shahbaz Nadeem helped the Indian team help settle their score against the Aussies and now make their way to the final where they will meet the Sri Lanka Masters or the West Indies Masters.
Yuvraj Singh’s quickfire 59, coupled with cameos from the likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Stuart Binnt and Yusuf Pathan, powered the India Masters to 220/7 in the first innings of the semi-final clash against Australia Masters in Raipur on Thursday.
Despite the early wicket of Ambati Rayudu, Sachin Tendulkar laid the platform for a big total, scoring 42 runs in 30 balls. He was eventually dismissed by Ben Hilfenhaus whilst trying to play the paddle-sweep, only to be caught by the fine-leg region.
Yuvraj Singh however, showcased his class, taking on the spinners and scoring a total of 59 in 30 balls to boost India’s scoring rate through the middle-stages. Despite being dismissed by Xavier Doherty, the Indian team carried forward their attacking mindset with the likes of Stuart Binny and Yusuf Pathan scoring 36 in 21 and 23 off 10 balls, respectively.
