Inn Break
So that is it from this game! Australia have taken a 1-0 lead in the series. India will look to bounce back on Sunday which is also a must-win game for them. That match begins at 1440 local (0340 GMT). Till then, take care and goodbye!
Australian skipper, Aaron Finch, says that he found it hard to get his timing right especially in the middle overs. Finch says they have hardly been together as a team and tells there were some zoom meetings. Tells they were committed to their plan. Tells that everyone has their own strengths and weakness. Tells Warner is moving beautifully, tells Smith was different class. Tells Maxwell has a rare ability and tells he is super skilled. On his moustache, Finch tells it is to raise awareness about Men's health.
Indian skipper, Virat Kohli, says that they got enough time to prepare and adds there is no excuse and everyone needs to show intent. Feels that maybe not playing a long game for a long time might be a reason but says that they have played enough games in the past to cope with it. Kohli feels they need to find a way to get some overs from some part timers. Admits they do not have all-rounders like Stoinis or Maxwell who can roll their arms. Rues the lapses in the field as he thinks. Kohli says that they all committed to play positive cricket and that was the reason they went out and played with intent. Tells they gave themselves the best chance. Tells they never felt like they were not going to get there. Kohli says they need to learn to chase down the target and they need to have a plan which everyone should commit to.
Man of the Match, Steven Smith says, that he was unable to find his hands but is happy to have found it and tells everything came back and he is happy to contribute. Smith says that he was not thinking too much and just seeing the ball and hitting it. Tells the surface was good and he picked the slots and the bowlers he wanted to target. Says he is not sure if he started playing with freedom after over turning the LBW.
On a day where the bowlers took a real pounding there were two who did exceptionally well, Hazlewood and Zampa. The former especially. It is his spell with the new ball which did the trick for Australia. Those three wickets was probably where India lost the game. Zampa too was brilliant with a four-fer, he did take a pounding initially but did exceptionally well towards the end. Overall, a very good performance from Australia. They completely outplayed India.
Then came a big, big partnership between Pandya and Dhawan which did make the Indian dug out believe but it was just the matter of one wicket. Once Dhawan fell Pandya too followed soon and then it was just a matter of playing out the 50 overs which India did.
A very comfortable win in the end for Australia! To be honest, the Australian batters batted India out of the game. 370 plus was always going to be a very tough challenge and it was going to be even more difficult if you kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Despite the start India got, they lost too many wickets in the first 20 overs. 4 to be precise.

OUT! TAKEN! That is probably the final nail in the coffin. Heartbreak for Pandya. He deserved a ton. Very selfless from him though. He could have easily just taken those 10 runs in singles but he went for the big hit as that was the need of the hour but it does not come off. It is fuller and on off.

DRINKS! 174 needed in 126 and this game is still equally in the balance. The pair of Dhawan and Hardik have been fantastic and have stitched a century stand. Australia have a lot of runs to play with but will look to end this partnership as soon as possible. Can the hosts find a way to get rid of either Dhawan or Pandya?

IN THE AIR AND FOUR! FIFTY FOR SHIKHAR DHAWAN! A lifeline for Dhawan. One has to say the fielding has been substandarad today. Short ball on the body. Dhawan pulls it and it goes to the right of fine leg. It seems to be a simple catch. Cummins, who is a gun fielder, moves to his right but loses the ball in the light and the ball bounces in front of him and goes away to the fence.
Mitrchell Starc now comes back into the attack! This partnership maybe worrying Australia a little and Finch goes to his strike bowler.

Josh Hazlewood To KL Rahul
Dot to finish a brilliant over. Hazlewood since finding his radar after Mayank's wicket has lbeen brilliant. The last ball is on a length on off, Rahul defends it to begin his innings. End of Powerplay 1! India are 80/3! They need another 295 runs from the remaining 40 overs.
KL Rahul walks out to bat! India need a partnership now.

Josh Hazlewood To Shreyas Iyer OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Shreyas Iyer departs and India from a string position are fumbling and tumbling. Excellent from Hazlewwod. He bangs in a brilliant yorker at pace. Everything about this is spot on. The pace, the rise and the direction. Shreyas initially looks to play but then looks to leave. Caught in two minds is the Mumbai lad. He decides to leave but keeps his bat hanging out. The ball hits his bat and goes high in the air. Carey with the gloves calls for the catch and takes a simple one. Trouble in paradise of this Indian chase all of a sudden.

Josh Hazlewood To Shreyas Iyer
Shreyas Iyer is off the mark! Fuller on off, Iyer drives it through covers and gets a couple.
Shreyas Iyer walks out to bat! He has a good chance to prove his mettle. Need a good score from him here.
