  First it was KL Rahul and then Hardik Pandya who took India to a big score. Acceleration happened at the right time for India and as a result the team finished the first innings at 208/6.

  Hardik Pandya hits a SIX over Pat Cummins' oberpitched ball, and it's probably the best shot of the match. India at 176/5 after 18 overs.

  Hardik Pandya is targetting length balls and that has taken India to 160/5 after 17 overs. Dinesh Karthik on the other hand is looking for his chances.

  India lose Axar Patel to a well directed slower ball, but that's not going to slow India's run rate. Stadium all set for Dinesh Karthik. 

  
• 20 Sep 2022, 08:12 PM

  Hardik Pandya on fire. His bat speed is a treat to watch. India set for a big score. Current score is 141/4 after 15 overs.

  Suryakumar Yadav will have to build the innings now. He is the one who could rotate strike and take on the main opposition bowlers. It's more of timing than power hitting for the Indian middle order batsmen now. India is 56/2 after 7 overs.

  
• 20 Sep 2022, 07:23 PM

  Nathan Ellis has gotten Virat Kohli out on two. This is a big wicket. Australia definitely has an upper hand at this juncture. India at 36/2.

  
• 20 Sep 2022, 07:16 PM

  Adam Zampa has been brought into attack against Virat Kohli. However, Kohli is a changed batsman after Asia Cup. This is going to be a good contest. Zampa has gotten Kohli out seven times in the past.

  
• 20 Sep 2022, 07:11 PM

  Rohit Sharma loses his calm and gets out after making 11. This could be a turning point in the game. All eyes on Virat Kohli now.

  
• 20 Sep 2022, 07:10 PM

  The way KL Rahul is picking on Josh Hazlewood shows how they are willing to take risks in the power play. A SIX over Hazlewood can change the dynamics of the match. 

  
• 20 Sep 2022, 07:07 PM

  It's a SIX, but it's more of a misjudged catch. Will Rohit Sharma make the most of it?

  
• 20 Sep 2022, 07:05 PM

  It's going to be a great battle between Pat Cummins and Rohit Sharma. It's also a battle of mental toughness. The test match length balls are going to try the Indian openers. Pitch has a good pace on it. In swingers are going to be a lethal weapon.

  
• 20 Sep 2022, 07:00 PM

  Josh Hazlewood has tarted bowling for Australia. KL Rahul is on strike. It's a lush green outfield in Mohali. This is likely to be a high scoring match. 

  
• 20 Sep 2022, 06:54 PM

  It's a full strength team for India. With Jasprit Bumrah back in the squad and Virat Kohli finding his form back, it will be difficult for Australia to stop the Indian team from a big score. These two teams are also the top contenders for the T20 World Cup happening later this year. This series will also decide which team is going to have the upper hand!
  
  National Anthem gives goosebumps.
