In a rain-affected ODI in Perth, India could only manage a modest total of 136/9 in 26 overs after a turbulent batting display. The innings was repeatedly interrupted by rain, reducing the match multiple times. After being put in to bat by Australia, India’s top order collapsed early. Rohit Sharma (8) and Virat Kohli (duck) both fell cheaply, with Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc making early inroads. Shubman Gill, leading the side, was dismissed for just 10 by Nathan Ellis.
The rain first halted play at 26/3, after which the game was reduced to 49 overs a side. However, more interruptions followed, with rain cutting the match to 35 overs, and later to 32, before finally resuming as a 26-over contest. During the resumed play, Shreyas Iyer added just one run before falling for 11 to Hazlewood. Axar Patel (31) showed some resistance, but once he was dismissed by Matthew Kuhnemann, India’s lower order collapsed.
KL Rahul (38) briefly tried to lift the innings, but wickets continued to fall. Harshit Rana (1) and Arshdeep Singh (0) also fell, leaving India on the brink of being bowled out. A late cameo from Nitish Reddy (19*) with two sixes helped India finish at 136/9. Australia will chase a revised target of 131 in 26 overs. IND 1st innings scorecard:

The coin flip of the match went in Australia's way and they opted to bowl first. Captain's take after the toss: Shubman Gill (IND): We would have bowled first as well. It's all about getting mentally ready. We are in a good mental place. The practice sessions help. We have a great combination. Nitish Reddy makes his debut, we are going with three fast bowlers and three all-rounders. Mitchell Marsh (AUS): We are going to bowl first. Looks like a pretty good wicket. Hopefully it's fast. It's always a huge honour leading your country. Hope we get off to a good start. The morale is great. We have some good young players. Seven batters, one wicketkeeper and four bowlers.
