India stand-in skipper Hardik Pandya speaks after match

Absolutely, we were under pressure wile bowling and batting but we kept our composure and were able to comeback. Once we got the momentum, we knew we could do well. Jaddu did what he was supposed to do. We all knew what he can do and coming back after 8 months, he partnered KL really well and helped the team really well. Enjoyed my bowling, it was really hot. Enjoyed the batting too, would've loved to take the side over the line but the way Jaddu and KL did it it was amazing to watch it from the outside

India won by 5 wickets

Australia stand-in skipper Steve Smith speaks after match

We weren't expecting when we walked to Wankhede, usually good scoring ground. India bowled pretty well, the way the ball swung around but credit to India. KL and Jadeja's partnership took the game away from us. We started pretty well, Mitch started off well, kept going but we lost too many wickets and didn't get ourselves good partnership but Jadeja and Rahul showed how it's done. May be 260 or 270 was par, ball was swung even after 30 odd overs for both the teams but just didn't have enough runs on the board. Just one partnership needed, we could've slogged in the end, wasn't to be in the end.

KL Rahul speaks after his match-winning knock

KL Rahul: When I came in, three wickets were down and Starc was was swinging the ball, it's tough when he does that. Not really thinking about the runs, just wanted to play normal cricket shots and not searching for runs and along with that picked up a couple of boundaries and that helped calm my nerves. Whoever I batted with, Shubman, Hardik and Jadeja. The talk was really with not really get into the shell, just try to be positive and try to keep the scoreboard moving. The minute left-hander walked in, there were loose balls on offer, that can happen to any bowler but Jaddu batted well, runs fast and puts the pressure on the fielders. When we started off, we didn't really think the pacers would be in play but Shami was brilliant. I enjoy wicket-keeping, slow and low today, it's a challenge but I enjoy playing here.

Match Summary

Mitchell Starc smoked fire with three big wickets of Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav and Shubman Gill. India were reduced to 39 for 4 at one stage before Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul forged to put some runs.

They were somehow successful to put the Australians at bay. Hardik departed in the quest of playing the pull shot against Marcus Stoinis. KL Rahul married the calmness on the pitch and ensured to keep the one end intact.

The Karnataka player repeated his determined knock at Eden Gardens against Sri Lanka a couple of months back as both situations demanded patience and grit at the same time.

Rahul did just that by showing his solid defence, rotating the strikes sensibly and cashing on the right deliveries. He found an able ally in Ravindra Jadeja as the stitched an unbroken 108-run stand to steer India to the target with more than 10 overs remaining.

Earlier in the game, Mitchell Marsh (81 runs off 65 balls) set the platform for the visitors through his blitzkrieg but his wicket paved the way for India to bounce back in the innings. Australia crumbled from 129/2 to 188/10 in 35.4 overs.

Mohammed Shami (3/17), Mohammed Siraj (3/29), Ravindra Jadeja (2/46) and a wicket each from Kuldeep Yadav and Hardik Pandya helped India to pull off things back to its ways.

Jadeja hits Starc two boundaries to finish the game

FOUR!!! Ravindra Jadeja hit Starc for a couple of fours. The second one was whipped between mid-on and mid-wicket to take India past the finishing line.

IND 191/5 (39.5 overs) KL Rahul 75*; Mitchell Starc 3/49

This approach from Rahul was a similar one shown against Sri Lanka in the second ODI at Eden Gardens a couple of months back. His unbeaten 64 guided India in a 216-run chase after India were reduced to 86 for 4 at one stage.

Rahul hammers Zampa after completing fifty

FOUR!!! Adam Zampa kept it outside the off-stump as Rahul opened the bat face and drove it past backward point for four runs.

Rahul smashed Zampa for a massive six over wide long-on in the same over.

Fifty for KL Rahul

A very determined knock from KL Rahul to anchor India in the 189-run chase. Tucked it to mid-wicket for a single and celebrated his 13th ODI fifty. Ends the over with a thumping boundary.

IND 100/5 (25 overs)

India are yet to cross 100 runs and one ore two more wickets is likely to hurt them. KL Rahul is not a stranger to such situations and will play very cautiously. Rahul has an ally in an experienced campaigner in Ravindra Jadeja.

Stoinis dismiss Hardik Pandya

Wicket!!! Stoinis changes the angle of the ball with a slight bouncer and Hardik goes for the pull with the intend to go big. However, didn't get enough power to it as Cam Green takes a brilliant catch at deep backward square leg. India lose their third.

Gill gets a boundary off Starc

FOUR!!! Gill played the full and angling away delivery from Starc away from his body and got an outside edge which raced to the boundary for four runs.

To rub the salt on Australia's wounds, Gill smashed Starc for a boundary through extra cover.

IND 10/1 (3 overs)

Ishan Kishan departs early in the moderate chase

Australia gave Marcus Stoinis to bowl the new ball along with Mitchell Starc.

And Stoinis does the gamble for Australia as he struck Ishan Kishan for LBW. The Indian opener opted for a review but lost it with the ball clipping on the middle stump.

Ishan Kishan 3 (8 balls) lbw b Marcus Stoinis

Shubman Gill opened the innings with a new opening partner in Ishan Kishan. Mitchell Starc in a customary fashion took the new ball.

Mohammed Siraj dented the first blow to Australia with the wicket of Travis Head. The moment for the visitors was when Mitchell Marsh and Steve Smith were rebuilding the innings through their 72-run stand before the Australian skipper edged one against his counterpart Hardik Pandya.

Ravindra Jadeja rescued India from further blows as he got better of the promoted Australian opener on 81.

Steve Smith departs for 22

Wicket!!! It is that saying that captain gets captain but there we will say the stand-in captain gets another stand-in captain.
