  1. Aus 34-1

    Full toss, four.

    I now know how Stephan felt when virtually every ball that Rohit Sharma faced was going to the ropes. Can't type quickly enough.

  2. Aus 30-1

    And pulled through mid-wicket for another...

  3. Aus 26-1

    Travis Head joins the party.

    He slashes Jasprit Bumrah over point for four.

  4. Bharat Sundaresan

    A meaty blow from Mitchell Marsh.

  5. 6 runs

    Aus 22-1

    Target 206

    Enormous.

    Mitchell Marsh takes 14 off the over, ending it with an almighty pull shot for six that sails into the stands.

    Three boundaries and the dropped catch from Arshdeep's eventful over.

  6. Bharat Sundaresan
    Journalist on Test Match Special

    As return catches go, they don't really come to you at a better height than that. He should've taken it.

  7. dropped catch

    Marsh dropped on five

    Aus 12-1

    The Australia skipper is going for it.

    He skips down the pitch to Arshdeep, clatters one straight back at him but the bowler can't hang on in his follow-through.

    Tough one, but a chance goes begging.

  8. Aus 12-1

    That'll do.

    Mitchell Marsh plonks one over mid-on for four.

    Rishabh Pant was treading water and then seemed to slip.

  10. Aus 8-1

    Target 206

    My word.

    It's always electric when Jasprit Bumrah bowls and he lives up to his reputation in his first over. Mitchell Marsh takes on the short ball, it pings off his glove but out of reach of wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant.

    Australia needed an explosive start but this has been far from it.

    Could that be the final time we see Warner in an Australia shirt? What a career it's been.

  12. wicket

    WICKET

    Warner c Suryakumar b Arshdeep 6 (Aus 6-1)

    Perhaps... not.

    A lovely piece of bowling from Arshdeep Singh, hanging the ball wide of Warner's off stump and tempting him into the drive.

    The Australia opener obliges, nicks it to slip, and gifts India the perfect start.

  13. Aus 6-0

    Target 206

    Perhaps the slice of luck that Australia needed? Warner edges one past his stumps and past Rishabh Pant for four.

  14. Aus 2-0

    A solid punch off the back foot for two to get off the mark.

  15. Aus 0-0

    Watchful from David Warner as he safely prods the first ball into the covers for no run.

  16. David Warner and Travis Head are in the middle. India will be confident, but it was Head, of course, who shattered India dreams in that 50-over final in November.

    Just the small matter of Jasprit Bumrah to deal with here, but that'll have to wait for the time being. Arshdeep Singh will take the first over.

  17. Thanks, Stephan. That was a whirlwind, wasn't it?

    Completely ruthless from India and Rohit Sharma in particular.

  18. Right. If Australia even get close to this, we're in for a fun couple of hours. Ffion Wynne is here to talk you through it.

  19. 'Rohit's innings was like a dream'

    India batter Suryakumar Yadav:"It was like a dream watching Rohit, he batted so beautifully. Before coming here, we spoke about how we wanted to go about things with the bat and he showed us the way.

    "It's a good score but it is a good pitch. There is something for the bowlers, so hopefully we can use that and defend the total.

    "Everyone knows their role and responsibility clearly in our side but the most important thing is that we are playing for one another and playing as a team."

  20. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    It is not beyond the realms of possibility that Australia can chase this total.
