Hazlewood tries a sort ball to Rahane who pulls it to deep square leg for two runs to take the lead past the 250-run mark. He repeats the shot again two balls later but this time just for a single.

Rohit Sharma gets a beauty first up, moving away enough to beat the right-hander's loose poke outside the off-stump.

Rahane ensures that India don't lose the momentum as he gives Lyon the charge and lofts him over midwicket for a four.

In the next over, Rohit gets off the mark with a single on the leg side before Rahane pulls a short ball over midwicket for a four to bring up his fifty from 111 balls.

He drives the last ball through the covers for a couple.
