India 8-1 (1 ov) vs Aus | Scorecard

Yashasvi Jaiswal and K L Rahul walk out to open the batting for India, while Mitchell Starc will open the bowling for Australia.

Mitchell Starc strikes with the first ball of the match as he gets Yashasvi Jaiswal leg before wicket for a duck.

The ball was pitched up and swing a bit as Jaiswal misses the clip and is struck on the pads. He has a chat with his partner Rahul before deciding to walk off without taking the review.

A huge early blow for India as Jaiswal walks for a first-ball duck -- his second in last three innings.

Shubman Gill back in the team. Starc gets the full delivery swing into the right-hander who clips it on the leg side and defends the next.

Gill then plays away from the body, steering Starc past gully for a four to get India off the mark.

The next ball is overpitched as Gill plays a nicely-timed straight drive past mid-off for another boundary.
