END OF OVER:
20 | 7 Runs 1 Wkt | AUS: 186/7 | RR: 9.30

  • Pat Cummins0 (1b)
  • Daniel Sams28 (20b)
  • Harshal Patel2-0-18-1
  • Jasprit Bumrah4-0-50-0

A blazing start and a blazing finish. Australia will feel they have enough to work with but remember, this is T20I cricket, and it often favours the team chasing. India were runaway winners through the middle overs - which has recently been a sore spot for them as far as the bowling is concerned. But in Axar Patel, they seem to have found just the kind of bowler they are looking for. Someone who can get inside the batter's head and bowl exactly the kind of ball they don't want. Add to that Yuzvendra Chahal returning to his old self and this game looked to be a cakewalk.

And then Tim David walked in. For a player like that, even 15 balls are enough to change the game and that's what he did, clattering bowling of the quality of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah, who for the first time in his career, went for over 50 runs in his four overs. India won't be fazed by the target in front of them but they'll know they gave a few too many.

Kumar to David, FOUR, David waits on the back foot. He waits for the slower ball. Not a bad one ball from Bhuvneshwar: short and away from the reach. But David still connects and makes it look worse. Spanked between deep midwicket and wide long-on

Kumar to David, 2 runs, just short of a yorker length. Low full-toss on off stump, David hauls it away between deep square and deep midwicket off the inner half. Kohli, I think, boots the ball back into the field of play and saves a double for India

David is a bit like Pollard. Loves hitting down the ground. So, long-off and long-on in place
