India vs Australia, Highlights, 5th ODI: Manish Pandey's Maiden Ton Helps India Beat Hosts by 6 Wickets

David Warner's 122 off 113 balls and Mitchell Marsh's unbeaten century bailed out the hosts from a precarious position to take them to 330-7. India openers Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan got the visitors off to a flying start but Australia fought back after removing Dhawan and getting Virat Kohli out cheaply. It was heartbreak for Rohit as he was dismissed on 99 but only after a solid partnership with Manish Pandey. Pandey then struck a brilliant unbeaten 104 off 81 balls to guide India home and help them retain the number two ranking. Catch all the highlights here (SCORECARD | NEWS | VIDEOS):

14:30 hrs IST: WICKET!! Massive wicket for Australia. Kohli has been dismissed for 8. Kohli goes for an expansive drive but edges it straight to the keeper. India are 134-2 after 20.2 overs.

14:26 hrs IST: Kohli reaches a 1000 ODI runs against Australia. He will be the key today again!!

14:21 hrs IST: Dead ball! That was going for a six but the spider cam came in the way. Umpires call it a dead ball. Kohli robbed off six runs and boos ring out at the SCG. Not fair at all!!

Wow, Kohli hits Spidey and that's a dead ball! https://t.co/6eauqKS6ec #AUSvIND pic.twitter.com/QCCTtq6d2Z

CENTURY! There it is, a maiden ODI century for @mitchmarsh235! You beauty! It comes off 81 balls #AUSvIND #GoGold pic.twitter.com/q4pdfs2vZK

12:32 hrs IST: Mitchell Marsh just can't get it away. What an over from Bumrah. Just 3 runs and a wicket in that over. What a debut for the youngster!! Gave away just 40 runs in his 10 overs and two wickets!! Impressive stuff!!

12:29 hrs IST: Mitchell Marsh moves to 99 with a single. This will be his maiden ton. But another brilliant delivery from Bumrah.

12:27 hrs IST: WICKET!! Bumrah cleans up James Faulkner!! Great bowling by the debutant. Gets his second wicket. Faulkner goes for 1 off 3 balls.

12:26 hrs IST: 10 runs off Umesh's over. Australia 323-6 after 48 overs.

12:24 hrs IST: WICKET!! Finally, Umesh has something to cheer about! Wade gets a big edge and is pouched easily by MS Dhoni behind the stumps, Wade b Umesh c Dhoni 36 (27 balls)

12:23 hrs IST: Six!! Wade smashes that to fine-leg boundary. Guess who's bowling - Umesh Yadav!

12:18 hrs IST: Four!! No respite from Mitchell Marsh as Ishant bears the brunt now. The Australian all-rounder has moved to 93 - his highest ODI score. If anyone needs to break batting records, face Indian bowling!! Australia are 313-5 after 47 overs.

12:16 hrs IST: This is fifth time in last six ODIs that India have conceded 300 plus runs. India need a bowling overhaul. Just a sub-standard attack!!

12:12 hrs IST: Four!! 300 up for Australia!! Mitchell Marsh cracks that to the cover boundary with disdain. Guess what, it was a slower ball from Rishi Dhawan!

12:08 hrs IST: Six!! Fifty-run partnership between Mitchell Marsh and Mathew Wade! Marsh pulls that over square leg boundary for a maximum. Australia are 292-5 after 45 overs.

12:06 hrs IST: 12 runs off Rishi Dhawan's over. Australia are 282-5 after 44 overs.

12:03 hrs IST: Four!! Rishi Dhawan is bowling one slower ball after another. And Wade saw that coming and smacked that over mid-wicket boundary.

11:58 hrs IST: Four!! Mathew Wade gets an edge and the ball streaks away to the third man boundary. Australia are 264-5 after 42 overs.

11:50 hrs IST: Ok so, Umesh figures in his three previous overs - 5th over - 14 runs, 6th over - 16 runs and 7th over - 14 runs. In three overs - 44 runs. Just not acceptable. 

11:48 hrs IST: Four!! Short ball and pulled away to the boundary by Mitchell Marsh. Time for Umesh Yadav to go!! Surely, there are better pacers in India than him. Just bowling 140 plus can't be the criteria to be selected in an international squad. Another 14 runs from his over. Australia are 249-5 after 40 overs.

11:46 hrs IST: Four!! Mitchell Marsh smacks Umesh Yadav straight down the ground. Things are going from bad to worse for the Indian pacer.

11:42 hrs IST: WICKET!! Just as we say that Ishant gets his own back!! Warner is gone for 122 off 113 balls. Crucial breakthrough for India!! Could be the difference between Australia reaching 350 runs. Australia are 235-5 after 39 overs.
