India vs Australia LIVE Score, World Cup 2023: AUS 140/7; Maxwell, Green latest to depart as Indian spinners run riot

17:14 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 40 overs,Australia 156/7 ( Pat Cummins (C) 12 , Mitchell Starc 4)

FOUR! Streaky, streaky boundary for Cummins after an outside edge that beats keeper Rahul and also is out of Rohit's reach at slip. An expensive end to Kuldeep's spell with 11 coming off his final over, as the left-arm wrist spinner signs off with figures of 2/42 from his quota of overs. Australia, meanwhile, go past 150 at the end of the second powerplay, and getting to a total in the range of 220 from here will be a bonus. 

17:11 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

SIX! The first maximum of the innings, and this one's every bit a welcome hit for the Aussies! Cummins gets on the back foot and muscles the halftracker from Kuldeep towards the vacant midwicket fence. AUS 152/7

17:08 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 38 overs,Australia 142/7 ( Pat Cummins (C) 1 , Mitchell Starc 1)

Mitchell Starc and Australia skipper Pat Cummins find themselves at the centre after the carnage unleashed by the Indian spin trio in the last few overs. Both are batting on 1 at the moment, and have quite the task ahead of them as far as rescuing their side and propelling them towards a competitive score is concerned. Kuldeep, in fact, came close to dismissing both Cummins and Starc in his penultimate over.

17:03 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

OUT! Australia are in real danger of getting shot out well below 200 now! Cameron Green departs just three deliveries after Maxwell, albeit off Ashwin's bowling as he slices a short-of-length delivery straight to Pandya at backward point. AUS 140/7

Green c Pandya b Ashwin 8(20)

17:01 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

BOWLED! Maxwell's cleaned up, and that's one big threat in the Aussie middle-order eliminated by Kuldeep! Rohit's decision to bring the left-arm wrist spinner pays off as Maxwell misses completely while going for a pull, resulting in his leg stump getting knocked over. AUS 140/6

Maxwell b Kuldeep 15(25)

16:58 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 35 overs,Australia 138/5 ( Glenn Maxwell 14 , Cameron Green 7)

And sure enough, Bumrah’s taken off after a two-over burst in the middle overs, and Ashwin returns in his place with Rohit stationing himself at slip. Green dances down the pitch in the fifth delivery, but can only collect a single after miscuing the ball towards the midwicket/cow corner region. Maxwell too attempts to smash the ball out of the park in the following delivery, and nearly offers midwicket a catch.

16:48 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 34 overs,Australia 134/5 ( Glenn Maxwell 12 , Cameron Green 5)

Bumrah concedes just a single in his sixth over. Maxwell, meanwhile, attempts to attack Jadeja in the following over looking to break the shackles with a boundary, but is unable to do so. Just three singles from Jaddu’s eighth over.

16:46 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 32 overs,Australia 130/5 ( Glenn Maxwell 11 , Cameron Green 2)

Bumrah returns to the attack, and is expected to send down a couple of overs to give one the spinners some rest before returning in the slog overs. Four off his fifth over including a couple of wides. Jadeja continues from the other end. FOUR! First boundary for Australia in 73 balls, according to the broadcasters, as Maxwell makes room for a lofted drive over the covers off Jadeja to close out the 32nd over.

16:32 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

OUT! Jadeja's on fire at the moment! Alex Carey has to walk back after getting trapped LBW by the left-arm spinner, who's making the most of conducive conditions at Chepauk. He has a quick word with Maxwell about going for the review, and decides to trudge off in the end. Would have burnt Australia's remaining review had he taken it, with HawkEye showing three reds. India, meanwhile, are back in the game and how! AUS 119/5

Head LBW Jadeja 0(2)

16:29 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

OUT! Two wickets in two overs for Jadeja, as Labuschagne perishes after getting a faint top-edge while attempting to heave the ball towards the midwicket region. What's more, he burns a review on his way back to the dugout, with UltraEdge showing a sizeable spike. AUS 119/4

Labuschagne c Rahul b Jadeja 27(41)

16:26 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 29 overs,Australia 118/3 ( Marnus Labuschagne 27 , Glenn Maxwell 3)

Glenn Maxwell joins Marnus Labuschagne at the centre after Smith’s departure, and he gets off the mark with a single off his first delivery. Kuldeep continues from the other end, conceding six off his seventh over including a brace in the final delivery to Labuschagne.

16:15 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

BOWLED! What a delivery from Jadeja to get rid of Smith! Pitches along the middle and leg, grips and turns away sharply to the point that it beats Smith's outside edge and clips the top of off! Smudge falls just four short of what would have been a deserved half-century! AUS 110/3

Smith b Jadeja 46(71)

16:12 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 27 overs,Australia 110/2 ( Steven Smith 46 , Marnus Labuschagne 22)

Chance created at the start of Jadeja’s fourth over with Smith going for an aerial drive towards long off, where the ball lands just short of Siraj. Might have been a case of misjudgement on Siraj’s part. Couple of excellent stops by the Indians in the following over — first by Ishan Kishan at fine leg and the next by Hardik Pandya at cover. Boundary saved on both occasions. Six off Kuldeep’s sixth over, and the left-arm wrist spinner has been fairly tidy so far today, having conceded just 21 runs with a wicket.

15:56 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 25 overs,Australia 102/2 ( Steven Smith 43 , Marnus Labuschagne 17)

Labuschagne collects another brace off Siraj, this time guiding the ball behind square leg, and gets off strike the very next delivery. Smith retains the strike with a single off the last delivery. Australia move past the century mark at the halfway stage of their innings, and have the platform to launch an assault in the back end of their innings and target a score in excess of 300 from here.

15:53 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 24 overs,Australia 98/2 ( Steven Smith 42 , Marnus Labuschagne 14)

Mohammed Siraj brought back for another burst, maybe for a couple of overs or three at a stretch before he’s brought back in the death overs. Four runs conceded at the start of a new spell, including a brace to Labuschagne in the third delivery after guiding the cross-seam delivery towards third man. Jadeja continues from the other end, and concedes five from his third over.

15:51 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 22 overs,Australia 89/2 ( Steven Smith 39 , Marnus Labuschagne 9)

Four runs collected in the last two overs, with Kuldeep and Jadeja operating in tandem at the moment. Labuschagne, meanwhile, is off to a steady start, having moved to 9 off 18 deliveries.

15:36 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 20 overs,Australia 85/2 ( Steven Smith 36 , Marnus Labuschagne 8)

FOUR! Tucked away behind square leg by Labuschagne off Ravindra Jadeja, who concedes a boundary off his third ball of the day after replacing Ashwin. Ashwin, stationed at backward square leg, put in a dive in vain. Eight off Jadeja’s first over.

15:32 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 18 overs,Australia 76/2 ( Steven Smith 34 , Marnus Labuschagne 1)

Marnus Labuschagne joins Steve Smith at the centre after Kuldeep’s dismissal of Warner, and gets off the mark with a single. India, meanwhile, are going with spin from both ends at the moment, with Ashwin and Kuldeep bowling in tandem.

15:24 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

OUT! Kuldeep Yadav with the breakthrough, collecting a catch off his own bowling as David Warner departs nine short of what would have been his fourth consecutive ODI half-century against India. IND 74/2

Warner c and b Kuldeep 41(52)

15:21 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 15 overs,Australia 71/1 ( David Warner 40 , Steven Smith 31)

FOUR! Kuldeep fires one down the leg side, and Warner decides to glance it towards the fine leg fence for a four. The southpaw retains the strike with a single off the last ball. First official drinks break at the end of the 15th over, but the players have had a couple of informal intervals already. It’s just that hot out there at the moment.

15:13 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 14 overs,Australia 66/1 ( David Warner 35 , Steven Smith 31)

FOUR! Warner decides to charge down the track and launch the ball over the cover region off Ashwin’s bowling, collecting his fifth boundary. Seven off the over, with a single coming off each of the last three deliveries.

15:12 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 13 overs,Australia 59/1 ( David Warner 29 , Steven Smith 30)

Kuldeep Yadav’s introduced at the start of the 13th over, replacing Pandya. Fifty of the partnership comes up between Warner and Smith at the start of the 13th over with a leg bye following a faint appeal for an LBW against Warner. Five off Kuldeep’s first over of the day.

15:03 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 12 overs,Australia 54/1 ( David Warner 26 , Steven Smith 28)

Tidy over from Ashwin, with three singles coming off it. Australia, meanwhile, have gone past the fifty mark already.

15:01 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 11 overs,Australia 51/1 ( David Warner 24 , Steven Smith 27)

FOUR. DOT. FOUR. Hardik Pandya’s brought back after the fielding restrictions are lifted, but Smith continues to collect boundaries at will, going for an aerial drive over mid off in the second ball followed by a pull in front of square two balls later, picking the vacant midwicket fence. Would have been a hat-trick of fours had Pandya not prevented a boundary in the third delivery. Eight off the over.

14:56 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 10 overs,Australia 43/1 ( David Warner 24 , Steven Smith 19)

FOUR! Warner gets on the backfoot and punches the length ball from Ashwin through the cover region. Seven off Ashwin’s second over, with three singles having been collected earlier in the over. Australia are 43/1 at the end of the first powerplay, and have made a decent recovery after an early blow.

14:52 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 9 overs,Australia 36/1 ( David Warner 19 , Steven Smith 17)

Right then, Pandya’s 13-run over does get him off the attack for now, and Rohit decides to bring Bumrah back. The Indian pace spearhead continues to bowl a tidy spell, conceding four from his fourth over.

14:44 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 8 overs,Australia 32/1 ( David Warner 16 , Steven Smith 16)

Rohit decides to introduce spin in the first powerplay, bringing in Ravichandran Ashwin in place of Mohammed Siraj. The veteran off-spinner, a late inclusion in India’s squad in place of Axar Patel, concedes just one run in his first over.

14:39 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 7 overs,Australia 29/1 ( David Warner 14 , Steven Smith 15)

FOUR! Driven straight down the ground by Steve Smith, who collects his third boundary. Not an ideal start for Pandya, who concedes 13 in his first over after being brought in place of Bumrah. The second-wicket stand is already starting to look threatening.

14:38 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

FOUR! Slightly short from Pandya, and Warner decides to pull this towards fine leg, where the ball lands just short of the boundary rope to be adjudged a four. AUS 24/1

14:37 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

FOUR! Warner decides to catch up with Smith on the boundary count, though he nearly offers Hardik Pandya a return catch in the process. Attempts to drive the ball down the ground, but doesn't quite keep this along the ground. The ball takes a deflection off Pandya's fingers and goes past the umpire and all the way to the fence. With that, Warner completes 1,000 runs in ICC World Cups! AUS 20/1

14:37 (IST)

After 6 overs,Australia 16/1 ( David Warner 5 , Steven Smith 11)

Smith decides to hold back after collecting two boundaries in as many overs, blocking his way through the sixth over to give Siraj his first maiden of the day.

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 5 overs,Australia 16/1 ( David Warner 5 , Steven Smith 11)

FOUR! Second boundary for Smith in as many overs, this time with a drive through the extra cover/mid off region off Bumrah’s bowling. He’s looking ominous for the Indian bowlers already!

14:26 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

After 4 overs,Australia 11/1 ( David Warner 5 , Steven Smith 6)

FOUR! Clipped through the leg side, through the gap between mid on and midwicket by Smith off Siraj. Second boundary of the innings.

After 3 overs,Australia 6/1 ( David Warner 5 , Steven Smith 1)

Steve Smith joins old pal David Warner at the centre after Bumrah’s early dismissal of Marsh. And the Aussie No 3 gets off the mark with a single off the penultimate delivery.

14:13 (IST)

Early breakthrough for India and who else but Jasprit Bumrah! Mitchell Marsh ends up nicking a delivery that's pitched outside off towards the slip cordon, where Virat Kohli reacts in a fraction of a second to pull off an excellent catch! AUS 5/1

Mitchell Marsh c Kohli b Bumrah 0(6)

14:11 (IST)

IND VS AUS LIVE SCORE

Mohammed Siraj has been asked to bowl from the other end.

The first ball from Bumrah! What class! It swung away from Warner who attempted a wild slash but missed the ball. The opener gets off the mark on the next ball with a push to cover point. Four straight dot balls to Marsh and Bumrah finishes the over with some expected tight bowling.

India vs Australia Pitch Report

Harbahajan Singh says the pitch in Chennai looks "dry, on the slower side and spinners will be in the game".

Ravi Shastri says India could play three spinners looking at the slow pitch as Hardik Pandya also offers a pace option. He reckons Australia may also do something similar. 

13:13 (IST)

Jasprit Bumrah speaks ahead of the India vs Australia match: "You miss the feeling of contributing to the team so excited for the World Cup. We are one of the few lucky ones to play a World Cup at home. Australia will make for cracking competition. Feeling is relaxed because we've played a lot of cricket recently. We were fresh and trained even when there wasn't any warm-up game. Will try to enjoy the occasion because in a big tournament you tend to overthink and go beyond the situation. It will be a little hot."
