- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.4 Edged to second slip! Beats Rohit two balls in a row and snags him on the third! On that hard length outside off, and Rohit is deceived by the sharp bounce. Makes a late defensive push and it goes off the sticker of the bat to second slip 13/18.1 Has Gill strangled himself down the leg side? Yes he has! Ellis gets lucky first ball with a 130kph length ball sliding down leg. Gill was looking to glance it fine but manages just a tickle and Josh Philippe takes a good diving catch. India's top three are back in the hut and it's not even ten overs! 25/36.1 Oh my, what a catch at backward point! Full outside off and Kohli is drawn into a drive. All he manages is a thick edge and Cooper Connolly dives to his left to hold on to that, sending Kohli back for an eight-ball duck! 21/213.2 down the leg side, and gone! Short ball, into the ribs, fended to the keeper and Philippe takes a tumbling catch. Iyer discusses the review but then walks off. Very well bowled by Hazlewood, straight off the glove, and a neat catch as well 45/419.6 Axar picks out long-on! They had been attacking Kuhnemann all over, without too much success, and Axar perishes in that effort. It's full outside off, cramping Axar, who wanted to go downtown. Doesn't quite hit it cleanly, doesn't get the elevation and picks out Renshaw's safe hands 84/524.3 Rahul picks out long-on and Mitch Owen has his maiden ODI wicket on debut! This was there to be hit, full around off, and Rahul doesn't get it off the middle and ends up hitting it straight to long-on. Bowled by a debutant, caught by a debutant 121/723.3 Kuhnemann has a second! Washi looked for the reverse-sweep and makes a mess of it. Kuhnemann slowed it down as he bowled it on a length around leg. It was spinning away as well and Washi is early into the shot and can only deflect the ball onto the top of leg stump, clipping the bail 115/624.6 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 123/825.2 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 124/9Extras8 (lb 2, w 6)TOTAL136/9 (26 Overs, RR: 5.23)Fall of wickets: 1-13 (Rohit Sharma, 3.4 ov), 2-21 (Virat Kohli, 6.1 ov), 3-25 (Shubman Gill, 8.1 ov), 4-45 (Shreyas Iyer, 13.2 ov), 5-84 (Axar Patel, 19.6 ov), 6-115 (Washington Sundar, 23.3 ov), 7-121 (KL Rahul, 24.3 ov), 8-123 (Harshit Rana, 24.6 ov), 9-124 (Arshdeep Singh, 25.2 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.2 He's chipped that straight to deep third! Arshdeep's first ball to Head is an outswinger that Head goes after but he just slices it straight to Harshit Rana, who makes no mistake. Arshdeep is away in celebration and India have their first wicket 10/17.5 Short's spooned a catch to short third! Rohit Sharma grabs it as Axar strikes in his first over! Tossed up full outside off, Short lunges forward and looks to drive through covers but can only get a thick edge that balloons up and the experienced Rohit doesn't make a mistake 44/215.2 Washington picks a wicket! Dropped shortish outside leg and Philippe rocked back to pull. Can't get enough distance on it and Arshdeep runs to his left from deep backward square to take a good catch. Philippe's played a great hand here, even if he is dismissed for two fewer than his career best ODI score 99/3Extras11 (lb 3, w 8)TOTAL131/3 (21.1 Overs, RR: 6.18)Fall of wickets: 1-10 (Travis Head, 1.2 ov), 2-44 (Matthew Short, 7.5 ov), 3-99 (Josh Philippe, 15.2 ov)
