Aus 100-6 (40 ovs) & 474 vs Ind 369 | Scorecard

Bumrah pushes Labuschagne to midwicket but decides against the single off the first ball to shield Cummins.

He watchfully plays out a maiden over from Bumrah, not wanting to expose his captain against the fiery Indian pacer.

Cummins gets off the mark as he steers Siraj behind point and runs for all four. Akash Deep had made a good diving stop to save the boundary but the two Aussie batters ran all four. Infact, Siraj was already walking back to the start of his bowling mark even before the throw could come back and Kohli is not impressed as he wanted to try for a run out at the non-striker's end.

Siraj bowls a high bouncer to Cummins which sails high over and is ruled a wide.

The last ball is down the leg side as Cummins shuffles across but misses the glance. Siraj interested in the catch down the leg side but Rohit says it has come off the thigh pad.

Akash Deep replaces Bumrah, who brought India back with a match-turning spell of three wickets for four runs in three overs.

Akash Deep unlucky as Jaiswal puts down a simple catch at gully. That could prove to be quite costly as Labuschagne is well set on 46. He played a poor shot, trying to run it down to thirdman.

That is the second dropped catch by Jaiswal today, he had earlier put down Khawaja.

Australia are 100/6 in 40 overs for an overall lead of 205 runs.
