If Smith stays on then the chance of Australia scoring above 300 will be very high. India needs to get his wicket otherwise rest will be history. He has already reached 99 and after 100 he will blast off.

Finally Steve Smith scored a ODI century after 3 years but i am disappointed with the way they are batting as they are not able to increase the runs rate and Bumrah is bowling tight lines and the run rate is going down rather than going up in the 42th over and now they just reached 238 runs and 6 more overs to go and how much they can get with Bumrah still have a 2 overs left and how much they will score against him who is bowling a tight line  .

Edit: Another wicket lost  .

Impressive bowling with excellent fielding is the main reason why the run rate is not spiking. The only need couple of overs and with Smith playing it can happen anytime now. He has an average of 60, he can make it happen. By the way he is not a power hitter.

As I predicted they finally scored 280+,to precise 286 and smith scored 131,do you guys this is enough to defend India?

Definitely not in a small ground like Chinnaswamy stadium.India have to keep their wickets in hand to win this match.

Australia could not finish well and they are 30 - 40 runs short here. India did come back strong in the end and now India are at upper hand. The score is not so big and if India does not panic, they can easily win this encounter.

Still, 286 is a good total for a decider match. I am surprised by watching Rahul and Rohit came out for opening the innings rather than the left-right combination. I can't remember Dawan playing down the order.

[Haunebu]

Australia were held back in the end thanks to an awesome bowling spell by Boom Boom Bumrah and Shami and it looks like India will easily win this one unless they throw away their wickets.

Dhawan got injured while fielding earlier which is why Rahul was sent in the opening position which was a good call since he is comfortable playing in any position at present. Sharma is going berserk at the moment.

I am going to pick Australia in the final ODI too. India batted well yesterday and if Australia was a bit more alert then I think they could win it too. At some stage it did not look that hard however we must admit that some of the bowling was very good from India.

I will create the pool shortly and feel free to join there.

Who will win on Sunday, its hard to guess but lets see some stats for this upcoming match. The last two matches at Bengaluru between Australia and India produced 650 Plus runs means the match will be high scoring one. Rohit has made more than 300+ runs in this ground in last 3 ODIs. Look like India will be favorite at Bengaluru seeing the records.

As I told yesterday, the team needed to have 300+ plus on the board to be able to win the match because this is a high scoring pitch. Australia failed to make enough runs and now Indian are clearly the favorites. 64 runs without any wicket and 6 runs per over rate, they couldn't have dream of a better start in the match.

The game is again well balanced. Indian batsmen need to bat without losing anymore wickets. Australians need to break the partnership between Kohli and Sharma. If they can bat for next 15 overs the match will be in favour of team India.

India is in control of the game and if Australia did not pick up some quick wickets then there is no way Australia is going to defeat India, i am expecting India to win the match and make a statement without loosing much wicket for the trashing they got from the first match and win the series in grand fashion . Rohit Sharma is looking to score a century here and if he does that he will change his gear and start trashing the bowlers all over the ground.

A good opening partnership of 69 runs has put India in a good balanced position as now Rohit is batting on 80 and India are now 129/1 and still require 152 runs in 24 overs . If Rohit bats for another 10 overs match will drift away from OZ.

Are you still thinking that Australia can win from here ?  I think India cannot lose from here as they need less than 120 runs in about 19 overs with 9 wickets in hand. Rohit Sharma once again played a match winning knock and is still unbeaten at 108.

Finally got the wicket of Rohit Sharma and if they can pick a couple of wickets mainly Virat Kohli then they can put pressure back on India and it is even possible to win the match from this situation if Australia is able to pick wickets and control the run flow as they need over 6 runs per over from this stage and if the wickets starts falling then the run rate will rise and it will put pressure back to the batsman.

I'm happy with India's performance till now. Though they couldn't take Smith's early on, they managed to out the other batsmen and Smith did not manage a big partnership after Labuschagne got out. Now Virat and Sharma played the best but Rahul failed to get runs. Happy for Rohit's century. Just 59 runs left so they don't need to take risks now and easily can manage with even singles.

[Clement Kaliyar]

India won the match in style and the series, Kohli missed out on a century but he proved again he is the king of run chases even though he was not able to stay till the end. The only player that will stay in the end in any chase is Dhoni and i really miss his performances. The reason i like the present team is that they always perform when the series is on the line.
Next India will be traveling to New Zealand and hopefully we will see a good contest.

Revenge done after losing the first match of the series.Next series will be the real test for team India because of changes in pitch from subcontinent and overseas will differ a lot so batsmen and bowlers will get struggle but they are good balanced team so yes it is going to be a good contest.

Fantastic win by team India!

Saw today India's best bowling, disciplined fielding and awesome batting. Enjoyed the game thoroughly.

Newzealand conditions will be completely different for Indian team. Small grounds, fast pitch and chilly winter.

Big win in the home ground. Australia later might have thought the decision to bat first is the mistake for the loss of the match. The start given by Rohit Sharma made the run rate stay equal to the balls. This kept the game move without much pressure on the batsmen. Finally the win of India continues for the year. As said New Zealand conditions were completely different, lets wait and see the match by 24th this month.

Australia won the toss and batting first was the biggest mistake they made as they were not able to set up the score they wanted and in a pitch like this, chasing is easy because of the outfield is fast and any ball outside the circle is a boundary and the wet outfield will make things worst for the bowlers, but i am impressed with the Australian spinners bowling well in this match and throughout the series.

Congrats to Indian cricket team.

After struggling with their fast bowlers now maybe Aussie captain finch realized that it was a bad decision for him to bat first on that pitch. Indian left hand spinner jadeja have done a good job with his wrist and shami made good use of his out swing deliveries. On the other hand Australian seam bowlers wasn't able to put their best in front of rohit and kohli.

Definitely Australia was short of 30 runs or slightly more but smith did his best to keep fighting total on the scoreboard. With an target of 286 run Indian batsman played an pressure less knock where they have worlds best middle order batsman on their side. Specially Rohit sharma was outstanding today and this guy is well known for continuing big innings. There could be chances for australian team if they would take early 3/4 wicket but Indian batsman showed their capabilities. Australia played the first match of this series clearly one sided but team india made good recoveries on last two match to win the series.

India played well today and was the better team. They bowled well and later they batted sensibly. This is their good start for them in 2020 in the first major series and a win means a lot to them.
