Aaron Finch hit his seventh ODI hundred at Manuka Oval, Canberra and first against India. He has built an 187 runs partnership with David Warner, who scored 93. Their partnership helped middle-order batsman Steve Smith and Mitchell Marsh went for big shots. But, Umesh Yadav and Ishant Sharma gave India four crucial wickets that halted Australia’s momentum of run scoring in the death overs. But, Mitchell Maxwell played a 19 ball 41 runs innings that helped Australia to post 348 for 8.

Bowlers getting hammered but atleast India will be chasing today. That gives hope. We will see how good our batsmen are today. #AusvInd

India’s death bowling has improved vastly. Nice 2 c Ishant & Umesh bowling well. Good Yorkers,slower balls. Bhuvi needs some work. #AUSvIND
