India 46-0 (16 ovs) vs Aus 451 | Scorecard


Australia's spinners will look to build the pressure with some tight bowling from both ends. Rahul though likes to keep things moving as he is early into the sweep but seeing Lyon bowl a full delivery, he has to swipe it on the leg side for a single.

A single each to the two batsmen off O'Keefe before Rahul flicks the left-arm spinner fine on the leg side for a four. The next ball is short as Rahul goes right back before he cuts it to the right of deep point for a couple and defends the last ball.

Vijay looking to the sweep shot to counter Lyon's threat as he misses out on the first attempt but then connects for a single to fine leg and Rahul collects another single.

India are 46 for no loss in 16 overs with Rahul having scored 38 of them with the help of five fours, while Vijay has made just eight.
