IND beat AUS by 7 wickets | India vs Australia, Highlights And Cricket Score 3rd ODI Match - Commentary

Right then, a target of 287 at this venue can be considered to be a walk in the park. But the surface has shown signs of holding up which will make the chase interesting. Do join us in a short while for India's reply.

Michael Slater has Marnus Labuschagne for a quick interview. Marnus says that the wicket is a little bit slow and he feels that they have enough on the board. Tells that they tried to get a kick on, kept the momentum going in the middle overs but lost wickets regularly after that. Reckons that it's enough with the way the Australian bowlers are bowling, especially the spinners. On reading the surface, Labuschagne replies that it's the part of the game and you need to read the wicket and adjust accordingly. Praises Smith for his knock but adds that he will be disappointed to not hit that into the stand (on his dismissal).

It was a decent effort from the Indian bowlers. They started well but failed to exert pressure in the middle overs. Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja didn't create the same impact that they were expected to on a pitch which appeared to be on the slower side. However, towards the end, they pulled things back efficiently. Mohammed Shami was in his elements with some fantastic death bowling while Jasprit Bumrah once again was difficult to hit.

At a small Chinnaswamy Stadium where defending is often next to impossible, Aaron Finch took a brave call at the toss to bat first. His plans were to post a big total on the board but Australia didn't get off to a good start. They lost both their openers cheaply inside Powerplay 1. Steven Smith and Marnus Labuschagne joined forces after that and did the repair job with a century stand. It was a bit of a scratchy knock by Smith but the need of the hour was for one batsman to stick around at one end and he fulfilled that role nicely. A century from his bat came after three long years (of course in ODIs) and his another partnership with Alex Carey prepared the launching pad for the death-over hitting. However, it never happened and Smith getting out in the 48th over meant that Australia failed to even touch the 300-run mark.

Just 10 runs in the last two overs for Australia and they have failed to get the desired kick in the death overs. Too many wickets at the backend of the innings and India will be pleased with the way the innings ended. They would feel that the momentum is on their side heading into the chase.

Alex Carey comes out now, at number 6, replacing Starc.

Ravindra Jadeja to Mitchell Starc. OUT! The move to send Starc up the order to counter Jadeja flops.

DRINKS HAVE BEEN TAKEN. India could not have asked for a better time to get the break and the breakthrough. Nothing was seemingly happening, the batsmen were milking runs but suddenly, Labuschagne decided to up the ante and perished. 19 overs are left in this innings and the visitors will feel anything less than 300 is not going to be enough on this deck.

Ravindra Jadeja to Marnus Labuschagne. OUT! Now then, this is a brilliant piece of catching from the Indian skipper. On the first ball of this over, he made a superb stop to keep Labuschagne at the striker's end and now he has taken a stunning diving catch to remove him. Catches win matches and this one has surely put India in control. The 127-run stand off 136 balls has been broken. A flighted ball around off, Labuschagne tries to play the lofted shot over covers but fails to get the desired connection. It flies to the right of Kohli at short extra cover who dives across brilliantly in that direction and grabs a ripper. Virat celebrates big and so does the crowd.

But is late and gets a thick outside edge. KL Rahul does the rest.

Jasprit Bumrah to start the proceedings with the ball. The countdown is complete and we are all set to begin. Let's go!!!

Kuldeep Yadav is down for a quick interview. He says that he has been bowling well since the last series and today is a decider so he is looking forward to it. Adds that the bowlers tend to bowl defensively in this format. Adds that he did not mind getting hit for a six and stuck to bowling an attacking line. States that looking for wickets in the middle overs is very important. Finishes by saying that he is focusing on more on varying his pace and that will be the key for him.

India (Unchanged Playing XI) - Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli (C), Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (WK), Manish Pandey, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Shami, Navdeep Saini, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah.

Australia (Playing XI) - David Warner, Aaron Finch (C), Steven Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, Alex Carey (WK), Ashton Turner, Ashton Agar, Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood (In for Kane Richardson), Adam Zampa.

Virat Kohli, the Indian skipper, says that they got exactly what they wanted and wants to put the pressure on the Australian batsmen. Expects dew to settle later in the evening while also mentioning that usually the pitch here will play the same over the full quota of 100 overs. Says against the Australians they had a comprehensive victory in the 2nd ODI. On the changes in the playing XI, Kohli informs that there are no changes and KL Rahul will be looking to make a good impression in front of his home fans on this wonderful ground.

Aaron Finch, the Australian skipper, says that this looks like a good wicket to bat on. Says that they want to get into the Indian middle order and are aiming to take some early wickets. Credits India for their victory in the second ODI. On the changes in the playing XI, Finch informs that Josh Hazlewood replaces Kane Richardson as he is a bit sore after the last match.

Toss - Up goes the coin and Aaron Finch calls Heads! Heads it is and Australia have opted to bat first.

Pitch report - Sanjay Manjrekar is down for the pitch report alongside Indian legend Sunil Gavaskar. Sanjay Manjrekar says that the pitch is very dry and there are some cracks on it. Sunil Gavaskar says that there will be a lot of grip and assistance especially for the wrist spinners, but there will be something for the finger spinners as well. Further says that the team who wins the Toss should want to bat first and put the pressure on the opposition but it will be interesting to see what the captains will do.

It is time! The M Chinnaswamy Stadium awaits as India and Australia face off in the series decider. A crunch clash, one where each side would be looking to prove a point. The Indian batting order finally looks settled after an injury to Rishabh Pant has seen KL Rahul slot into the wicket-keeping role and make room for another pure batsman or an all-rounder too in the form of Shivam Dube. The Australians after a massive victory in the first ODI, were defeated in the second one but they won't be too disappointed with the manner of it as they were well in the game until the 35th over after which Kuldeep Yadav turned the game around in one over. It will be interesting to see what happens in this game as it is expected to be a high-scoring game which this ground is renowned for due to its size. Expect a lot of maximums and tons of runs. Stay tuned for the toss and the pitch report.
