Australia amassed a mammoth 186, thanks to a potent mix of Tim David's explosive fireworks - 74 off 38 balls - and Marcus Stoinis' masterful batting of 64.
Arshdeep Singh (3 wickets) and Varun Chakravarthy (2 wickets) bamboozled Australia's top order, while Shivam Dube's crucial wicket of Tim David added to the pressure.
India finally broke the toss curse and opted to bowl first. Playing his first game of the series, India's leading wicket taker Arshdeep Singh in the format dismissed the dangerous Travis Head and Josh Inglis to leave Australia at 14 for two.
However, India's early edge was abolished by David (74 off 38), who targeted every Indian bowler in an outstanding show of power-hitting. Four of his five sixes came down the ground.
Following David's dismissal, the seasoned all-rounder Marcus Stoinis (64 off 39) took the helm of charge on the offensive to take Australia to a competitive total.

David dominated the Indian bowlers, especially peerless Jasprit Bumrah or mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy.
After Arshdeep's double blows in the power play, it was Chakravarthy who put the brakes on the scoring rate by removing Mitchell Marsh and Mitchell Owen in successive balls. The incoming delivery to Owen, flicked through the fingers, was a peach. Arshdeep and Bumrah closed the innings well for the visitors.
