India vs Australia 1st ODI Live Score: Pandya wins toss, IND bowl first (Hindustan Times)

India vs Australia Live Cricket Score 1st ODI Match Updates: India have left out Yuzvendra Chahal and gone ahead with Kuldeep Yadav while David Warner has ...

The three-match ODI series is unlikely to be anything different. In 2019, Australia beat India 3-2, after India had taken a 2-0 lead and a year later in 2020, the Aussies registered a 2-1 win at home. In all the euphoria surrounding Virat Kohli and Hardik Pandya, do not forget the Australians, led by the one and only Steve Smith. India head coach Rahul Dravid, who has played a match in 2013, put on a helmet and picked up a bat on the eve of the match but albeit for a different reason. It remains to be seen if he is completely free of his elbow problem but the fact is that India face a different kind of beast now. India then visited India for a three-match series and ended up losing 2-1 themselves. He feels that dew could be a factor here and India have chased well in the recent past. Hardik Pandya has won the toss and chosen to bowl first. Playing for India every game and every format is important. Wankhede is always a chasing ground, specially with the dimensions,” adds Ajit Agarkar. - Follow live score, latest updates and commentary of IND vs AUS 1st ODI at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium

Live Cricket Score, IND vs AUS 1st ODI 2023: Australia lose Head ... (Times of India)

IND vs AUS 1st ODI Live: India's stand-in skipper Hardik Pandya won the toss and elected to bowl first against Australia in the first ODI. Hardik is.

Length ball, angling on the pads, Mitchell Marsh misses the flick and gets it off the pads toward the vacant mid-wicket region. The ball goes past the stumps and down to fine leg as the batters pick up a couple of runs. Hardik Pandya to Mitchell Marsh, SIX! However, Hardik Pandya provided the breakthrough for the hosts and they will feel this might be the opening to put pressure on the Aussies. Sublime timing and that has rocketed to the fence. Good length, closer to the off stump this time and just shaping away a touch. Ravindra Jadeja to Mitchell Marsh, Beaten! UltraEdge is checked and there is a big spike as the ball passes the bat and Smith stays on. Marnus Labuschagne just leans on and creams it through the cover region for a boundary. This is floated up on leg stump, Marsh gets a stride forward and paddles it down to fine leg for a boundary. Kuldeep Yadav to Mitchell Marsh, FOUR! Banged in a bit short and at over the off pole, Mitchell Marsh picks it up and launches it high in the air and the ball clears the mid-wicket fence.

India v Australia: first men's one-day international – live (The Guardian)

20th over: Australia 129-3 (Labuschagne 11, Inglis 0) Next in is Josh Inglis, defending the last couple of Jadeja offerings.

The bowler gives him a long stare off a long follow-through. 5th over: Australia 29-1 (Marsh 13, Smith 5) More extras, leg side again from Shami and this time it clips Smith on the thigh before finding the boundary. They went to the Caribbean and Bangladesh on the team plane during the pandemic for white-ball tours, but not this. Serious movement to end the over, some swing in the air and off the pitch, away from the bat as Marsh aims a big drive. On the back foot to meet a shorter length, timing it perfectly through cover for four. 9th over: Australia 52-1 (Marsh 25, Smith 15) Way wide of off stump from Pandya, and that gives Smith the room to stride across decisively and dispatch the cover drive for four! 6th over: Australia 33-1 (Marsh 13, Smith 9) Seven runs off the first three overs, 22 off the next two. 13th over: Australia 78-2 (Marsh 40, Labuschagne 1) The last time Marnus Labuschagne was in the middle he was dead-batting out a Test draw with Steve Smith in Ahmedabad. 10th over: Australia 52-1 (Marsh 31, Smith 16) Shardul Thakur into the attack. Green goes at Kuldeep, a fast edge goes well to the right of Gill and he gets a hand to it but with no control. 25th over: Australia 151-4 (Inglis 12, Green 6) Kuldeep working away at the stumps from over the wicket. Jadeja can’t stop Marsh third ball of the over though, a bit too short, turning away but Marsh cuts with the turn through cover.

Rahul, Jadeja stay cool to seal tough chase of 189 (ESPNcricinfo.com)

Mohammed Shami triggered a dramatic Australian collapse, but the target proved a challenge in Mumbai.

He was dropped on 2 by Inglis off Starc, and a couple of outside edges went past second slip. Stoinis struck the first blow in the second over, trapping Kishan lbw to prolong his run of poor scores. He then deposited Jadeja beyond long-on before dishing out more punishment to Kuldeep, hitting him for a four and six off successive balls in the 19th over. Having bowled just three overs with the new ball, he returned in the 28th over and still got the ball to move around. And he swung the game in India's favour by bowling a Test-match line and length. From the other end, Starc showed just why he is such a force in the ODI format, swinging the ball in both directions at searing pace to rip out three wickets. The third delivery of Shami's second spell disappeared for a six over square leg, but he beat Josh Inglis next ball. In the first ten overs, there were ten fours and a six. He had brought up the milestone with a four off Kuldeep Yadav and celebrated it with another boundary next ball. Rahul, who kept wicket even though Ishan Kishan was in the XI, was impressive behind the stumps, diving full length to his left for one-handed takes on a couple of occasions. Despite [Mitchell Marsh](https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricketers/mitchell-marsh-272450)smashing 81 off 65 balls at the top of the order, Australia crashed from 129 for 2 in the 20th over to 188 all out in the 36th. In the afternoon, Hardik Pandya, standing in as captain for Rohit Sharma who had family commitments, had asked Australia to bat in the Mumbai heat.

The more flexibility and depth you can have with your batting-line up, I think it will be really important.” “We’ve seen really good teams in the past, England have guys batting at No. So there’ll be a mix of combinations as we lead into the World Cup. “We’ve gone in with a structure with eight batters to bat a little bit deeper, we’ve tried that.
