00:00It is Australia versus India, the first of three one-day internationals.

00:05A little bit of cloud around, but no, fear not, we are going to have international cricket here to open the day.

00:11Well, this strike can't try to overdo it at all.

00:14It's the first delivery of any real length, and it's been punished to the boundary.

00:22Search for and it's smacked down the ground.

00:25Taken, second slip, Hazelwood.

00:33That's punished.

00:34He's dined out on the width, slightly over pitch, that's a classy stroke from the captain.

00:41Upish and taken, is it?

00:43Virat Cole, he's got to go, and he goes without scoring.

00:46Into the attack for the first time.

00:48Down the leg side, Ellis likes it, gets a wicket first, ball!

00:52Just a slight bit of precipitation, which is not a statement you make with Perth.

00:58Two slips still in place.

01:00This time he does make contact with the drive.

01:03He's had a couple of goes, it squirts away through the offside.

01:06Not beautifully timed, but enough on it.

01:08Sun came through fairly quickly on that first little rain delay, so hopefully it's not going to hold us up long here.

01:13So it's been a stop-start affair.

01:16So the Indians have got just over 23 overs to go.

01:21Very positive start.

01:24A boundary.

01:27It's a club on that.

01:28There's a noise, beautifully taken by Philippe.

01:31Hazelwood gets it done again.

01:32It hasn't taken much for them to go off in the previous two times, has it?

01:36Oh no, here they come.

01:38And at least they're consistent.

01:40There's a revised conditions.

01:43So India have lost another three overs from their allotment.

01:47India strapping to get any momentum in the innings, coming on and off, losing wickets.

01:51Ellis again.

01:54Confidently driven.

01:56Ground staff, they haven't been this busy in about the last four years combined.

02:00They're doing a great job.

02:01And they'll have 9.2 overs to bat.

02:05India.

02:08Top edge over the keeper's head.

02:10That'll fall safely.

02:12And it bounces for a boundary.

02:18Pump down the ground.

02:19That's a nice stroke.

02:21You didn't get too greedy.

02:22It was just a bit of a check drive.

02:26It does that, but it's hit hard into the gap.

02:28The southpaw is getting into his groove.

02:35Too good.

02:35Too powerful.

02:36Kael Rahul gets in on the act.

02:38And that's dispatched as well.

02:43Another boundary.

02:45Back to back.

02:4515 off the over for India.

02:48Does over pitch.

02:50Goes and doesn't get enough.

02:53It's a wicket to Matt Cooneman.

02:55And he's first on Australian soil for Australia in this format.

02:58Matt Renshaw takes his second catch.

03:02Rahul advances.

03:03He didn't quite get to the pitch.

03:04But it doesn't matter.

03:06Continued free with the stroke.

03:07And cleared the lock.

03:09Outside off stump.

03:10Rahul goes again.

03:11And this time he really gets a piece of it.

03:13A couple of sixes in a row.

03:15Kael's away.

03:16Watch out the crowd.

03:18And he's targeting the right area.

03:21He picked it nicely.

03:22Moved into it.

03:23Almost expecting it to be there.

03:25The Washington Sundar is in the right place at the right time.

03:29Nice throw in.

03:30Tried something quite spectacular.

03:34And Cooneman strikes again.

03:35Tries to clear the mound on the rope.

03:39Doesn't clear the mound on the rope.

03:40Mitch Owen gets his first.

03:43He winds up.

03:45Sends it high in the sky.

03:47Philippe's done some good work.

03:48And does some more.

03:51He's winding up trying to go over mid-wicket.

03:54But again.

03:55Just off the inside portion of the bat.

03:56They come back for a second.

03:57Trouble, trouble, trouble.

03:59To get involved.

04:02This time he goes over mid-wicket.

04:04And he's tried it three times in a row.

04:05Fourth time lucky.

04:09High on the bat.

04:10Another six.

04:11Nithish Kumar ready with some late fireworks.

04:14So walks off Babe Ruth's style after knocking it out of the ground.

04:18In fact, the official tally is nine for 1-3-1.

04:21So I don't know how you explain that.

04:23I don't know how you explain that.

04:24So the target is 1-3-1.

04:27India chipped up-ishly but into the gap.

04:30There's a sort of play you'll always feel like you're in the game.

04:33You're always a chance of dismissing him.

04:35But in the blink of an eye, he can take it away from you.

04:40That's a smack.

04:42Back over mid-off.

04:44Second.

04:46Four of the over from Travis Head.

04:49Shape.

04:50Is it a chance there?

04:51Is it indeed?

04:52And that is out.

04:53Travis Head is gone.

04:54Mitch Marsh climbs into it.

04:58Backing back the runner.

04:59But he's got to go further.

05:02Very few grounds big enough in world cricket.

05:04That's one of the bigger boundaries.

05:06Draw first blood.

05:07One of the teams.

05:08And that's helped through the offside by Matt Short.

05:12Used every bit of his height there to get on top of the ball.

05:15Oh, punished.

05:19High and long.

05:21It's the second six to Mick Marsh.

05:23Has he taken it?

05:24I think that's a beauty.

05:30That's punished all the way as well.

05:32A third six.

05:36Beats fine.

05:37Another boundary for Mitchell Marsh.

05:42Oh, right in the helmet.

05:44You heard it.

05:44Crunching in the effects, Mike.

05:47Smiling back at Siraj and saying I'm okay.

05:50Give it a quarter to four.

05:52Catch it!

05:53Thick outside edge.

05:54Patel immediately breaks through.

05:56Delivered the dots.

05:57Tied up.

05:58Short.

05:59Rowett takes the catch.

06:00And India pick up there second.

06:03Thick outside edge.

06:04Mitch Marsh can just stay in his crease.

06:08Thick outside edge.

06:11Gee, it carries over the lot from Phillippe.

06:12That's how quick it is here.

06:16Gets a bit extra loft, but Phillippe controls it well.

06:19Another boundary.

06:22Slashes away again.

06:23This time the other side of Ash Deep.

06:25So Phillippe's starting to get into his work now.

06:29That's the slog sweep.

06:30And there's plenty of room there.

06:31Catch it was the call, but the fielder had moved in.

06:34And it's heave deep, high and long.

06:39It's going to go all the way.

06:40Josh Phillippe is really starting to flex his muscles now.

06:46Hasn't got all of that.

06:48And that will be taken.

06:49It is.

06:50Ash Deep Singh.

06:51He just misjudged it initially, but he held on to it.

06:57Does go down the ground, and he's just going to have enough.

07:00He is brilliant on the boundary.

07:04Mohamed Siraj.

07:05Ready for Ben Shork.

07:11That's the confidence.

07:13When you wait so long, you want to take your opportunity.

07:15He's enjoying his little cameo here.

07:18And it did go all the way.

07:19I just wasn't quite sure if it just bounced in front of that rope.

07:22He fought it back in a hurry there.

07:34Edged and away from Carl Rahul.

07:35Got a glove to it.

07:38So a life for Matthew Renshaw.

07:42That's nicely tugged away.

07:44Powerfully.

07:44So just a handy little knock now from Renshaw.

07:47Tucks it away for the winning single.

07:52So a comprehensive performance by the Australians in a match.

07:55Interrupted by whether they take a 1-0 lead over India.

08:00In the best of three series in convincing fashion.

08:02A seven-wicket win due to the DLS method.
