India 106-2 (33 ovs) & 189 vs
Aus 276 | Scorecard


Lyon keeping it full and on the stumps as Pujara leans forward to defend before he pulls the last ball to deep midwicket for a single.

In the next over, Pujara gets an inside edge for a single before Kohli is beaten by one as O'Keefe gets some turn. The spinner appeals but the umpire is not even interested.

Pujara drives a full delivery from Lyon to long-on for one before Kohli whips the next square on the leg side for another single and the two batsmen pick another couple of singles in the next over.

Pujara chips down the track to Lyon but seems to have got an inside edge off the pads which falls safely on the off-side. He then flicks the next ball on the leg side for a single and Kohli whips the fifth ball through midwicket for one to bring up India's 100, in the 32nd over.

Kohli must be itching to make a big score following three successive failures against Australia. Hazlewood comes into the attack after a short spell from O'Keefe and he starts with a half volley on the stumps which Kohli hits through midwicket for a four and then takes a quick single on the off-side.
