Both Shubman Gill and Nitish Kumar Reddy have looked comfortable since they arrived at the crease. They have played some good strokes and kept the scoreboard ticking as well. India look well placed with the two out on the crease. 

01 Dec, 15:42 (IST)

Nitish Kumar Reddy has been one of the shining stars for India in the tour so far and he has looked to be solid during his short stay in the crease in this match. Another positive for India would be Shubman Gill back in action coming out of his injury. 

01 Dec, 15:20 (IST)

Out! Not a good start of the tour for Indian captain Rohit Sharma. Gets caught by Oliver Davies off the bowling of Charlie Anderson. Rohit will be under pressure to make his place in a winning team and this innings will not instill much confidence in him. Rohit c Oliver Davies b Charlie Anderson 3(11).

01 Dec, 15:10 (IST)

After a good session out in the middle, KL Rahul retires hurt. Although he is not injured. Since he got his time out in the middle, it was time for Indian captain Rohit Sharma to come in and prepare for the upcoming pink-ball Test match in Adelaide. It was an interesting development that Rohit came to bat in the middle order. 

01 Dec, 15:00 (IST)

Out! Yashasvi Jaiswal miss-hits the ball handing an easy catch in the cover region. Jack Clayton takes the catch as Charlie Anderson claims the wicket. Jaiswal misses out on half-century but has been sensational with his batting performance. Yashasvi Jaiswal c Jack Clayton b Charlie Anderson 45 (59) 

01 Dec, 14:44 (IST)

India is looking to speed up the run chase as Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul collected 30 runs off the last four overs nearly equalling their total score in the previous 10 overs. Yashasvi is batting on 35 while Rahul is on 23 at the moment. 

01 Dec, 14:20 (IST)

In the first 10 overs, India now has 31 runs, with Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul playing safely. India might shuffle batters after a few overs, but the opening pair is set and will look to provide a strong start for the run chase. 

01 Dec, 13:58 (IST)

Chasing 241, Indian batters are now playing aggressively. Yashasvi Jaiswal in particular is playing more aggressively and upped the tempo with back-to-back boundaries. The youngster looking in great touch.

01 Dec, 13:49 (IST)

only 46 overs left in the match with rain affecting the match period. Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul will open the innings for India and will look to replicate their recent performances. India 233 runs behind at the moment. 

01 Dec, 13:06 (IST)

Two wickets in two overs ended Australia Prime Minister XI's inning. a tricky 241-run target for India. Harshit Rana was the pick of the bowlers with four wickets while Akash Deep picked up two wickets. Sam Konstats shinned with a century. 

01 Dec, 12:51 (IST)

Out! End of a brilliant inning. Akash Deep bowls it short, Sam Konstas goes for the pull but finds Fielder in the deep. a brave inning from 1-year-old Konstas comes to an end. Sam Constas c Abhimanyu Eshwaran b Akash Deep 107 (97) 

01 Dec, 12:44 (IST)

200 up for Australia Prime Minister's XI! Sam Konstas played a vital role in shaping up the PMXI innings, and after the opening partnership he found useful support from  Hanno Jacobs. Indian batters will now have something to bat for. 

01 Dec, 12:35 (IST)

100 for Sam Konstas! The opener held the one end and scored the bulk of the Australia Prime Minister's XI runs. He completed his well-deserved century nicely, pacing his innings in the match. Konstas smashed 14 boundaries and a six in his masterclass inning. Interestingly, no sign of Jasprit Bumrah yet from India.

 

Century for Sam Konstas

01 Dec, 12:13 (IST)

Smart batting by Sam Konstas as he is looking to play most of the deliveries and slowed down his strike rate as the situation demanded him to stay at the crease. India won a little battle here, putting breaks on run-flow. 

01 Dec, 11:57 (IST)

Out! Prasidh Krishna picks up his first wicket, with Nitish Reddy taking a catch in the deep. Indian bowlers led by Harshit Rana are now putting pressure on the opposition.  Aiden O'Connor c Nitish Reddy b Prasidh Reddy 4 (4)

01 Dec, 11:49 (IST)

Harshit Rana picks up two wickets again in an over handing India a massive chance. Sam Konstas might feel lonely at the crease now as wickets are falling in quick succession. Rana will look to complete his fifer while Konstats will be aiming for three-figure score. 

01 Dec, 11:41 (IST)

Harshit Rana took two wickets in the match picking up Jack Clayton and Oliver Davies' wickets. Interestingly both batters saw their stumps rattled by a great delivery. A chance for India to take control of the game.

01 Dec, 11:36 (IST)

Looking to put a big score on the board, Australia Prime Minister XI batters are going after each loss delivery. The right hand-left hand combination is working well for the side as both batters are dealing in boundaries.  

01 Dec, 11:19 (IST)

100 up for Australia Prime Minister's XI! Some hard-hitting from  Sam Konstats and Jack Clayton. Konstats taking on the Indian bowlers while Cleyton joins the party taking on Harshit Rana and Prasidh Krishna. India needs to break this partnership to get back into the game. 

01 Dec, 11:07 (IST)

50 For Sam Konstas! A brilliant and aggressive batting performance by the Australian batter. He brings his half-century in style hitting six to Harshit Rana. Despite losing two quick wickets, the Australian PM XI side maintained the run rate.
