It is not easy to run out one of the most athletic cricketers in the world. Even a direct hit from Kane Richardson from the boundary could not catch Jadeja short of the crease.

Ravindra Jadeja was done knocking the ball around. The left-arm spinner's stock delivery was too tempting for Jadeja to get a single from. Jadeja gets on one knee and hits it over deep mid-wicket for a maximum. A Jadeja special today? IND - 177/5 after 36 overs

Two new batsmen at the crease - Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer. Two quick batsmen have pushed India on the back foot in the middle overs. IND - 141/3 after 29 overs

Pat Cummins comes back into the attack but was unable to dominate Shikhar Dhawan. After four dot deliveries, Dhawan hits Cummins for two consecutive boundaries to end the over. Meanwhile, Dhawan completes 1,000 ODI runs against Australia. IND - 55/1 after 12 overs
The current run rate is finally getting back on track. Shikhar Dhawan looks settled, KL Rahul does not seem to be troubled by Australian attack either. The top order has played out the new ball. It will be interesting to see how Aaron Finch makes changes in his bowling attack now. IND - 45/1 after 10 overs
Shikhar Dhawan was in first gear in the first seven overs. The opener has shifted gears rapidly in the previous two overs making up for the dot balls he played earlier. Two boundaries from Kane Richardson's bat. IND - 38/1 after 9 overs
