Sydney--Paceman Mitchell Johnson struck a double blow for Australia with the wickets of India's star batsmen Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in nine balls in the World Cup semi-final in Sydney on Thursday.
Johnson had Kohli caught behind by Brad Haddin for one and then in his next over skittled Rohit's stumps for 34.
Johnson, who was pumped up in his wicket celebrations, had the figures of 2 for 29 in six overs as India slumped to 91 for three in the 18th over.
