Guwahati : After winning the second Twenty 20 international against India by  8 wickets at Barsapara Stadium, Australia Team bus was attacked after a rock was hurled at the team bus which shattered the window.

Aussie batsman Aaron Finch tweeted a picture of the shattered window tonight "Pretty scary having a rock thrown through the team bus window on the way back to the hotel!!"

Cricket Australia's news site cricket.com.au said no-one was hurt and nobody was sitting in the seat next to the window when it was broken by the rock "believed to be roughly the size of a cricket ball".
