Two sixes in the space of three balls from Sean Williams who is tucking in to Ashwin's bowling. First one is over deep square leg and four rows back, the second is almost where he placed his first a couple of overs ago down at cow corner as they say.

On Twitter:, external Leaden skies in Hobart. Forecast not looking great later today.

Up comes the 100 for Zimbabwe and there's hardly a cloud in the Auckland sky now. Which, as you'll hear shortly, is not quite the case over in Hobart.

Pushing towards 100 now Zimbabwe and for the first time the run rate is above four-an-over.

"Those square boundaries are the longest part of the ground. The counter-attack continues."

Lovely stroke from Sean Williams for the day's first maximum. Classic slog sweep down on one knee away to deep mid wicket and easily in to the stands.

"Some people believe you should play a conventional sweep on line, others on length."

Sean Williams is in on the reverse sweep action now and Jadeja gets the treatment this time and is hit away for four. A 50 partnership comes up between this pair.

Derek Good: Is Taylor the most common name in this World Cup? Five teams have one.

Another nice reverse sweep from Brendan Taylor, this time off Ravichandran Ashwin. Into the 40s now Taylor. He loves the shot so much, he plays it again. A bit squarer this time for four more.

"Williams is looking to nudge and nurdle the ball around Eden Park, while Taylor is looking to play bigger shots."

Also just heard a blast of Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars's omnipresent Uptown Funk on the PA too. Lovely reverse paddle sweep from Brendan Taylor down to the short boundary. Good understanding of the angles on this ground.

"The DJ in Auckland is certainly doing his part to get the crowd in party mood as he plays a burst of '1234 Get On The Dance Floor' from Chennai Express, although the Indian fans don't need any excuse to bust out a few moves - I don't believe I've seen them sit down since the teams walked out, much to the stewards' dismay.

"Though it's a beautifully sunny day the light breeze is making the large number of Indian flags stand out far more as they sway in the wind and it's making a gorgeous Eden Park look incredibly colourful."

Still not exactly explosive stuff here at Eden Park. Brendan Taylor clearly wants to make a big impression on his last international outing and he's probably conscious there's not a huge amount of batting after him and Sean Williams.

"I heard earlier that the ground was at least three-quarters sold out, though it's not quite that full yet - they're still coming in."

Sean Williams is looking to break the shackles here off Jadeja. He tries a reverse sweep from a slightly shorter delivery, but can't force it past backward point. India continuing to tighten the squeeze.

Thomas in New Zealand: Why does his shirt say 'Yadaav' yet all major broadcasters insist on 'Yadav'? I know the latter is a popular Indian surname but the former appears on his shirt.

We've had all sorts of alternative names on shirts at this tournament - such as the UAE's Krishna Chandran, whose shirt bears his "other" name - Karate. Australia's T20 shirts used to features nicknames rather than surnames.

Back at Eden Park after drinks and Mohit Sharma bustles through another neat over. Three singles added to the Zimbabwe total as these two continue to try and build some sort of platform.

Don't forget we've got two matches this morning for you.

Coming up in just over an hour, it's Pool A action in Hobart as Australia face Scotland.

We'll bring you all the toss and team news from Bellerive Oval as we get it.
