Aus 311-6 (100 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

A full delivery on the stumps as Green clips Siraj past the fielder at mid-on for three runs.

Paine then nudges the fourth delivery on the leg side for another run as the duo keep the scoreboard ticking along.

A single each to Green and Paine off Thakur's next over as the duo keep building the total and inch towards the 100-run stand for the sixth wicket.

Off-spinner Washington Sundar comes into the attack. Wicketkeeper Pant puts down another chance as Green had edged Sundar. His gloves were nowhere close to the ball which hit his pads and fell short of Rahane at slip.

Green then picks a single before Paine picks one into the covers to bring up his fifty from 102 balls.

Thakur makes the first breakthrough for India. Paine looks to drive the wide outswinger without any footwork as he gets the edge and Rohit takes another good catch in the slips.

Paine walks back after scoring 50, having put on 98 runs for the sixth wicket with Green.

New batsman Pat Cummins throws his bat at a wide delivery and is beaten.
