India 25-2 (17 ovs); Target to win: 340 | Scorecard

Boland goes fuller after the drinks break. Rohit is beaten on the outside edge as he pushes away from his body before taking a single to midwicket.

Another full delivery as Jaiswal drives straight past mid-off for a couple of runs.

With Jaiswal using his feet against the pacers, wicketkeeper Alex Carey has come up to the stumps.

Extra bounce for Boland as Jaiswal and wicketkeeper Carey does well to collect the ball.

Cummins makes the first breakthrough with the wicket of Rohit, who fails for the fourth innings in a row.

Rohit looks to flick the pacer but gets the edge and Marsh takes a superb catch at gully.

Rohit walks back after scoring nine from 40 balls -- falling to Cummins for the fourth time in the series. After missing the first Test, Rohit has managed just 28 runs in four innings in the series.

Australia's strategy to bowl a bit fuller after the drinks break has paid off. Rohit looked to flick but the ball seamed away slightly as he got a thick outside edge and Marsh showed great awareness to pouch a sharp catch on the second attempt.

Cummins strikes again in the same over. K L Rahul gets the edge and is caught by Usman Khawaja at first slip for a duck.

The back of length delivery bounced and moved away as Rahul looking to defend got the edge.

India in trouble on 25/2 in 17 overs.
