Another four from Bolton and fittingly, she is the one who gets the winning runs. Harmanpreet Kaur looks a little stunned by what has happened. Her team have been completely outplayed here and Australia were better in all departments. Nicole Bolton's splendid knock makes her the favourite for Player of the Match
A boundary and that's 100 for Nicole Bolton, Australia need 4 to win off 109 balls. She has carried this innings through and Australia are on the brink of a dominant win here
A mix-up and a direct throw at the bowler's end and the Aussie captain has to depart. India celebrate, can they stage an unlikely comeback here?
Meg Lanning and Nicole Bolton have now put 53 runs between themselves for the second wicket. They are cruising to a victory now, needing 88 runs from 196 balls
And finally India get a breakthrough. Short and wide and Healy cuts it to Shikha Pandey at cover point. The opening stand is finally broken, now in comes Australian skipper Meg Lanning. She is making a comeback after being out due to injury for a year
50 up for Australia in the eighth over! The openers have done a fine job in the chase of 200. No wickets for India which is a worrying sign. Some wayward bowling outside the off stump and they have been punished
Australia openers Bolton and Healy have given their team a good start. Australia are 29 for no loss after 5 overs. The Indian bowlers have not troubled them so far and even the spinners have been ineffective.
Shikha Pandey has the new ball in hand as India begin their defence of 200. The bowlers have to be on spot to defend the low total. Australia openers Bolton and Healy are out in the middle for the chase
India were 113 for 7 but the final three wickets add 87 runs to get the total to 200! Poonam is run out on the final delivery but India get 200. They got a good start but then lost regular wickets. Vastrakar 51 and Sushma 41 led India to this score with that partnership. Wellington finishes with three wickets while Jonassen has four!
Maiden ODI fifty for Pooja Vastrakar! Brilliant innings from the right-hander which has given India something to play with. But she is out the next ball. Good relay catch at the ropes. Two balls remaining in the final over
A fighting innings of 41 runs from Sushma Verma which led India's recovery but she won't get to her fifty. Tries the slog sweep and connects as well. But cannot clear the ropes. Caught at deep square leg
Vastrakar and Sushma have been the saviour for India. They partnership is now worth 69 and still going. Four overs remaining in the innings and India are 182 for the loss of seven wickets. They were 113 for 7 at one stage
India have not have a big score on the board but they have done well to play so far. After 42 overs, India are 156 for the loss of seven wickets. Vastrakar and Sushma have been doing so well. Australia failing to wrap up the tail!
Veda Kirshnamurthy is the latest wicket to fall. She is caught by Mooney at cover-point. Wellington gets her third wicket. Then Shikha Pandey is gone too. Jonassen has her caught by Perry. India 113/7
India cross the 100-run mark and have been going slowing in the match. Australia have struck regulary and they hold the upperhand. Veda Krishnamurthy and Sushma Verma at the crease for India
What a big wicket for Australia! They know it and are jubiliant. Harmanpreet Kaur is back in the hut. A little outside the offstump and Harmanpreet reaches for it. That is bit far and outside edge to the keeper!
That is a very good catch from Carey to get rid of Deepti. A powerful sweep and it looks like flying but Carey is stationed at square leg and it goes straight to her. Very good catch
Australia bowlers have done well to slow down the Indian scoring rate. India are 79 for the loss of two wickets after 21 overs with Harmanpreet Kaur and Deepti Sharma out in the middle
Gone! Big wicket for Australia as a well set Punam Raut has been dismissed! She was playing so well but now she makes a mistake of playing the sweep shot. Misses it completly and is adjudged LBW.
Punam Raut has been fantastic in this game. She gets two consecutive fours to end the 16th over. She moves on to 37 off 44 balls. India are 58 for the loss of two wickets after 16 overs.
After a good start, India lost two quick wickets and have been pushed back by Australia. Punam Raut is still set and going good. She is joined by stand-in skipper Harmanpreet Kaur in the middle.
Jemimah Rodrigues is gone! Not the ideal debut for her. It's a loose delivery which has pitched on the leg stump and is moving towards the off. Rodrigues tries to play it down the leg side but gets a faint edge and is caught by Healy behind the stumps!
Too risky from Smriti and she has to pay the price! A ball too close to her body and she tries taking the aieral route. The ball gets high up in the air and there is no distance. Meg Lanning at mid-on takes good catch to end the innings. First wicket for Gardner
India and Australia are meeting in an ODI for the first time since that epic World Cup game in which Harmanpreet Kaur smashed 171* off just 115 balls. India won that game by 36 runs and reached the final
What a start for India! Punam Raut with some exceptional drives through covers. She moves on to 13 off just 11 ball. Mandhana was faced only one ball and she has a four. India are 18/0 after 2 overs
Punam Raut and Smriti Mandhana are the two openers for India and they have made their way to the middle. Schutt is the new ball bowler for Australia. She is ready with the ball. All set to begin this series
India have won the toss and elected to bat against Australia in the 1st ODI. Captain Mithali Raj is unwell and Harmanpreet Kaur is the stand-in skipper for India today. Meg Lanning also back for Australia
