WICKET! Kohli falls for 89
Hazlewood to Kohli, out Bowled. First success for Hazlewood. Yorker from the seamer that cracks into the stumps. Kohli tried to play it to the mid-wicket but missed it as the ball finds the gap between bat and pad to light up the stumps.

Bengaluru ODI Live: SIX!!
Starc to Shreyas Iyer, SIX. Not a good day for Starc. A short ball from the seamer and Shreyas Iyer pulls that for a maximum. He follows it up with a boundary to the deep extra cover fence. With the pace Iyer is scoring, he might deny Kohli a century here.

Shreyas Iyer joins the party!
Hazlewood to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR. Hazlewood fails to execute a yorker and Iyer finds the gap between the covers. He hits another one the very next delivery. India's required run rate has now dropped to 5.5

Australia search for another wicket
The biggest disappointment for Australia in the game has been Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins who have not been able to give them the crucial wickets. Cummins has been expensive as well as he has given away 64 runs in the 7 overs he has bowled thus far. India now need over 6 runs a over for series win but if Australia get Virat Kohli here the match could turn in their favour.

Rohit Sharma departs for 119
Zampa to Rohit, out Caught by Starc. Australia finally succeeded in breaking the gritty stand but this might be a little late for the visitors as Rohit as already done his job. Rohit looked to slog sweep it but got a thick top edge. Mitchell Starc coming running from the long-on and takes the catch. Shreyas Iyer, who has not contributed much in the last 2 ODIs, is the next man in for India.

Virat Kohli gets going!
Cummins to Kohli, FOUR. Short and wide from Cummins, all that is needed to punish the bowler. Kohli sends it to the boundary line. He has been batting patiently so far but the skipper is now coming alive as India move closer to the target.
