 India 262-8 (49 ovs) vs Aus | Scorecard

Cummins comes back, to bowl his final over. Ashwin has a wild swing off the first ball but misses followed by a single. Both Rohit and Ashwin can only get singles as just five runs come from the over as Cummins finishes with 52 runs from 10 overs.

Ashwin lobs the first ball from Starc on the off-side but Cummins running in from deep point is unable to hold on to deny his colleague the fifth wicket of the innings.

He then gets a leading edge on the off-side attempting to hit it across the line for two runs.

In the same over, Rohit hits it straight to midwicket to fall after a superb knock of 138 from 139 balls, having hit nine fours and four sixes.

Starc continues his wicket ways as Bhuvneshwar Kumar is bowled off the first delivery he faces. That is the sixth wicket for the left-armer for a tally of 10 wickets in two games, having taken four wickets against England in the previous game.

Mohammed Shami avoids the hat-trick as he blocks out another quick yorker.

Starc finishes with career-best figures of six for 43 in 10 overs and has been instrumental in pulling back things for Australia after Rohit's century.
