    Shreyas Iyer averages 58 against leggies in this format, striking at 90. He's the key to managing this phase.

    Australia need a wicket and they need it soon. Both Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer are getting comfortable out there.

  3. Ind 93-2published at 19 overs

    Target 265

    Back to the pace of Ben Dwarshuis. Steve Smith is really trying to keep India's batters on their toes.

    There's a direct hit from Marnus Labuschagne but Virat Kohli is safely home and even manages to pinch an overthrow.

    A couple of balls later, Dwarshuis has one whistle past Kohli's outside edge.

    There are a few towels out there so I think Australia will be concerned that dew could come into play.

  5. Ind 88-2published at 18 overs

    Target 265

    Tanveer Sangha is from the Ravindra Jadeja school of bowling. That over took no time at all.

    Three singles and three dots.

    Target 265

    Four more runs rubbed off the target through sensible strike rotation.

    And we're going to see another bowling change from Australia with the introduction of Tanveer Sangha. India will be pretty unfamiliar with him. What can he do?

    The only way that Australia can win is by taking eight more Indian wickets.

    Target 265

    Steve Smith goes back to the pace of Nathan Ellis. Both captains have been chopping and changing their bowlers today.

    He concedes three singles from the first five balls but releases the pressure off the final delivery, Virat Kohli pulling a shorter ball square for four.

    Ball tracking has it missing the leg stump by a mile. Good call from Josh Inglis behind the stumps to halt Australia's appeals.

    I was certain that we were going to see a review there.

  11. Ind 75-2published at 15 overs

    Target 265

    Huge appeal at the end of the 15th over. Has Adam Zampa got Virat Kohli lbw?

    It looked close but a grim-faced Steve Smith doesn't take the review.

    What I love about low-scoring games is that every run feels like it has such significance.

    It's very tight. I've been really impressed with Cooper Connolly. It's the first time I've seen him live and his accuracy has been very impressive.

  15. Ind 71-2published at 14 overs

    Target 265

    Cooper Connolly continues and concedes seven runs from his fourth over, including a boundary from the bat of Shreyas Iyer. It's not a bad ball, just good footwork from the batter.

  16. Ind 64-2published at 13 overs

    Target 265

    Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer continue to just rotate the strike and slowly chip away at their target.

    It's a very sensible approach (one Australia employed very well, too) and one other teams on the international stage could take note of.

    India are below the required rate but they know that they can score big if they need to. They also know that they have the best chaser in the world out there.

  19. Ind 61-2published at 12 overs

    Target 265

    A lovely comeback from Cooper Connolly after conceding a couple of boundaries in his previous over.

    Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer pick up three singles.

    The last five times Rohit has tried to sweep a left-arm orthodox in ODIs, he has been dismissed thrice.
