Feels great to be back amongst runs: Dhawan

Adelaide, Feb 8 (IBNS): Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan showed signs of returning to form after scoring 59 in a warm-up game against Australia on Sunday.

He said he felt 'great' to return to amongst the runs.

“It feels great to be back amongst the runs. More than the runs I am more satisfied with the way the ball is coming off my bat. Today the ball went in the places I wanted to hit and with the ease with which I wanted it to,” Dhawan said in an exclusive chat with bcci.tv.

Days before the start of the World Cup, India's preparation for the tournament suffered a jolt as MS Dhoni's side was thrashed by 106 runs hosts Australia in a warm-up game with Glenn Maxwell and David Warner striking centuries here on Sunday.

After winning the toss, Australia elected to bat first and were 371 all out in 48.2 overs.

The Australian bowlers then bowled out India for 265 runs.
