Aus 182-3 (19 ovs) vs India 190-4 | Scorecard

Pacer Kaul comes back into the attack. The first ball is a slower ball and Maxwell is deceived all ends up as he swings hard but fails to connect.

The next ball again is slow but this time he picks it early as he lofts it back over the bowler's head for a six to take his score into the 90s.

Kaul bowls a high full toss which Maxwell carts over midwicket for a six and the bowler is penalised with a no-ball for height.

Maxwell can't make most of the free hit as he hits it down the ground and is caught at long-off but he picks a single to take his score to 99.

In the next over, Maxwell digs out a yorker which is stopped by Dhoni to his right. The Australian takes a single to race to his century from just 50 balls as Australia are on course for victory.

It's all yorkers from Bumrah as Handscomb hits it to point for one and Maxwell does well to clip it to square leg for another run.

Handscomb then hits the fourth ball straight but ends up hitting the stumps at the non-striker's end and fails to get a run.

Bumrah then bowls a full toss as Handscomb drives it gently down to long-on for one.

Maxwell clips the last ball to deep midwicket for one, leaving Australia to get nine from the last over for victory.
