Australia chose to and Shaun Marsh boosted Aaron Finch's side by blasting his seventh century to propel them towards a big score. His partnerships with Usman Khawaja and Glenn Maxwell laid the foundation for Australia to reach such a big total. For India, only Bhuvneshwar Kumar was the star with 4/45 but India leaked plenty of runs in the death overs. In response, India started off in style with Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan starting brilliantly. However, Australia chipped away at regular intervals but Virat Kohli showed his class and scored his 39th century. MS Dhoni, much maligned for his slow knock in Sydney, chipped in with a magnificent 69th fifty to boost India to a six-wicket win and level the three-match series 1-1. (SCORECARD)
