Rahul has looked solid, has played close to the body and shown great discipline.
Cummins nearly gets Rahul with a beauty, as the ball moves away quite late to square up the right-hander before going past the outside edge.
Rahul looks to evade the bouncer from Cummins but leaves his bat hanging up as the ball deflects off the top edge over the slips for the first boundary for India, in the 12th over.
Virat Kohli on strike against Hazlewood. India's most experienced batter has a big task on his hand as India need a big partnership to bail themselves out of trouble.
He defends the first ball on the off-side and gets a leading edge next ball trying to flick but it goes along the ground to mid-off.
Kohli gets a thick outside edge on the bounce to gully before he misses the flick and hit on the pads.
He flicks the fifth ball but gently to the fielder at midwicket before he is beaten last ball pushing away from his body.
