Aus 122-5 (17 ovs) vs India 161-7 | Scorecard

Sundar, who has one over in hand, is back into the attack.

New batsman Matthew Wade defends the first two balls before he clips the third ball to deep square leg and comes back for the second.

The left-hander then attempts the slog sweep but is beaten and he then gets one to long-off before Henriques plays the cut shot but can't get it in the gap.

Just three runs from the over as Sundar finishes with tidy figures of just 16 runs from his four overs.

The asking rate is nearly 12 with 46 needed from four overs for victory.

Chahal to finish off his quota from the other end. The first ball is on the pads as Wade sweeps it behind square for two runs and then repeats the shot for a single next ball.

Henriques chips down the track as Chahal drifts it wide and the right-hander can only push it into the covers for one.

Wade slog sweeps Chahal from outside the off-stump for a single to deep midwicket.

Henriques goes inside out as he lofts it over the covers for just one to sweeper cover.

Chahal ends his spell with a wicket as Wade goes for the slog sweep but this time he holes out to Kohli at deep midwicket to perish for seven.

Concussion substitute Chahal ends with splendid figures of 3-25 in four overs with Australia reduced to 122-5 in 17 overs, with 40 needed from 3 overs for victory.
