5.17pm And so the India innings ends on 136 for 9 after 26 overs. There were several rain breaks after Hazlewood and Starc got Australia off to a flyer. Rohit and Kohli failed to fire and then Gill and Shreyas were both caught down the leg side. But then, Rahul and Axar weathered the storm and built momentum for India, with Reddy finishing it off strong. Kuhnemann was also impressive, keeping it tight and picking two wickets. The only two boundaries he conceded were the two sixes in the final over. And Australia's DLS adjusted target is 131.

Kuhnemann to Nitish Kumar Reddy, SIX, Reddy finishes the innings in style! This is on a length outside off and Reddy waits on it, clears his front leg and boshes it over long-on. Not a bad effort for the debutant

Kuhnemann to Nitish Kumar Reddy, no run, On a length outside off, Reddy looks to swing it away and gets an inside edge onto his pads. The ball rolls to his right and Philippe shows good awareness to spot Siraj taking off for a single and has a shy. But Siraj makes it back in time

Around the wicket again

Kuhnemann to Nitish Kumar Reddy, SIX, Oh, he's picked the bones off that one! That's what he'd been trying for the last two balls, finally connects. Tossed up outside off and he slog sweeps it into the stands over midwicket

Siraj strides out in his cap. But he won't have strike just yet

Kuhnemann to Nitish Kumar Reddy, 1 run, OUT, And that's a run-out! Arshdeep was well short there as Reddy miscued another heave to deep midwicket. The second run was never on offer but they had to try for it I suppose. Arshdeep maybe started a little late on the second run, but I don't think that would have made a difference

Arshdeep Singh run out 0 (1m 0b 0x4 0x6) SR: -

Kuhnemann to Nitish Kumar Reddy, no run, Darted in full on off at 107kph, Reddy looks for the hoick over midwicket but only manages an inside edge to short fine leg

Arshdeep is the new batter but will start at the non-striker's end. Kuhnemann will bowl the final over. Can Reddy get some runs off him?

Owen to Harshit Rana, OUT, Top edge goes flying and it's a simple catch for Josh Philippe! Banged in short, Rana goes for the pull and ends up skying it. Rana started walking before Philippe could even settle under it, and the keeper makes no mistake

Owen to Nitish Kumar Reddy, 1 run, Dropped by Renshaw! In the slot and Reddy swings it to long-on's right. Renshaw also had to come in from the rope and ends up making a mess of it as he slides to get in position. He's held on to two catches today, but messes that one up
