IND vs AUS 1st ODI Highlights: India thrash Australia by 5 wickets, take 1-0 lead in three-match series

India vs Australia Live Score: A six off the very next ball and India's stand-in captain has finished the job in style for his job. Rahul ends the match unbeaten on 58 off 63. A towering strike down the ground to finish the game off. A comprehensive win in the end for the hosts and they take a 1-0 lead in this three-match series. And with this win, India are also now the No.1 ranked ODI side in the world. They are now the top ranked team in Men's Tests, ODIs and T20Is.

India vs Australia Live Score: He lofts the third ball of the 49th from Abotto over mid off and reaches his half century in 62 balls. India are now 2 runs away.

India vs Australia Live Score: He has a wry smile on his face does Suryakumar as he looks at Rahul at the other end. He flicks Abbot straight down the throat of the fielder at deep square leg. SKY wanted to finish this clearly but this will be remembered as an important innings, regardless of what happens to him from here on.

Suryakumar Yadav c Marsh b Abbott 50 (49), India 265/5 in 46.4 overs

India vs Australia Live Score: That would be a sight for sore eyes as far as Rahul Dravid, Rohit Sharma, Ajit Agarkar and the rest of the team management is concerned. The only justification for including SKY in the World Cup squad has been his obvious genius in T20Is. This innings, might just be exactly what India need from and what SKY needed to get going. Just imagine if there is an ODI version of Suryakumar Yadav playing for India in the World Cup.

India vs Australia Live Score: SKY decides to bring the best T20 batter in the world out for this one. He is cruising now, so why not. Fourth ball of the 46th bowled by Green, SKY gets down and dirty, flicks it right over the wicketkeeper's head.

Flicked fine by SKY to say goodbye to Pat Cummins. The Australian captain ends his spell with figures of 1/44. This was a slow ball but angled nicely down leg, SKY sits back and flicks it to the boundary. India are 253/4, need 24 to win off 30. SKY moves to 40 off 42, Rahul is on 44 off 54.

India vs Australia Live Score: Rahul ends that over with a dismissive pull shot. Short ball about chest high from Cummins, Rahul waits and cracks it through midwicket.

India vs Australia Live Score: They need 43 to win off 48. This partnership is closing in on 50 now. Rahul on 33 off 41, SKY on 32 off 37. The T20 SKY is not to be seen today and that is just as well for India, he has hardly looked bothered at all today.

India vs Australia Live Score: That is the third time he has done this, off the first ball of an over yet again. A lovely straight drive right past the bowler, unstoppable. SKY far better than he did in goodness knows how many ODI innings in the past. He has reached 29 in 30.

India vs Australia Live Score: Full from Stoinis for the first ball of the 40th and SKY just caresses it back in the same direction along the ground for four. India need 59 to win off 65 now.

India vs Australia Live Score: India are 201/4 in 36 overs. SKY Is on 10 off 15, Rahul on 22 off 27. SKY has put the fancy shots in his pockets for now and that is all India need as well. The required rate is 5.53 and their current run rate is 5.54.

India vs Australia Live Score: SKY got himself going with a late ramp over the vacant slips region off Cummins. This is another chance he has got to get a good score in his ODI career and this partnership would also be crucial to India's cause in this game. He is on 7 off 11, Rahul on 20 off 25.

India vs Australia Live Score: Just as it looked India have got it back together. Kishan follows a short ball from Cummins for an upper cut, gets a feather edge on it and is caught behind.

Kishan c Inglis b Cummins 18 (26), India 185/4 in 32.3 overs

India vs Australia Live Score: Rahul and Kishan beginning to settle down now. Partnership between them is now on 33.

India vs Australia Live Score: Ishan Kishan on 10 off 16, Rahul on seven off 10. The run rate has fallen, as you'd expect considering India lost two big wickets in virtually no time but Australia would know that there is still a long way to go before they can consider themselves to be truly in control of this match. Two of India's most in-form batters in ODI cricket out there at the moment.

India vs Australia Live Score: Ishan Kishan drills Zampa down the ground off the very first ball he faces. He had absolutely smashed that one and the ball reaches the boundary in no time.

India vs Australia Live Score: Well Australia have stormed back into this match now. Gill tries his favourite cut shot but this time he misses it and the ball hits middle and off. Zampa gets his second wicket.

Gill b Zampa 74 (63), India 151/3 in 25.3 overs

India vs Australia Live Score: No game time today for Iyer, he is run out after facing eight balls. Full ball around off from Zampa for the fourth ball of the 24th, Shreyas pushed to cover and set off, there probably wasn't a run there. Gill stops and Iyer turns back, Green sends in a gun throw and Inglis whips the bails off before Iyer can make his ground.

Iyer run out (Green/Inglis) 3 (8), India 148/2 in 23.4 overs

India vs Australia Live Score: Big appeal off the very next ball and Gaikwad is gone. Gaikwad has a word with Gill and then starts walking back, so no DRS here. On a length on middle from Zampa, it turns away and Gaikwad is hot on the pads as he gets on the sweep early. A fantastic innings comes to an end from Gaikwad and Shreyas Iyer is replacing him at No.3.

Gaikwad lbw b Zampa 71 (77), India 142/1 in 21.4 overs

India vs Australia Live Score: Zampa's third delivery of the 22nd guided late to deep third by Gaikwad. He opens the face of the bat and the pace on the ball did the rest.

India vs Australia Live Score: Gill on 62 off 48, Gaikwad on 61 off 66. Cummins is back and bowled his fifth over and now Adam Zampa comes in for the 20th.

India vs Australia Live Score: India 120/0 in 18 overs. Gaikwad now on 59 in 64, Gill is on 59 off 44 and Australia are on their haunches. First Gaikwad pulls Abbott behind square and then he hits the last ball of the over wide of mid off.

India vs Australia Live Score: While Gill has galloped away at the other end, Gaikwad has taken his time and he has been as much responsible for Australia being flattened in these first 17 overs as his partner. He gets there in 60 balls.

India vs Australia Live Score: The 100-run stand came up in 15.2 overs. Gill on 57 off 42, Gaikwawd on 42 off 54. Australia looking slightly bereft of ideas here.
