all over. The debutants combine to get Boyce out. Bumrah does him in with the slower ball, Pandya takes an easy catch at mid-off. Eventually a comfortable win for India

So that brings an end to our coverage of the first Twenty20 international of the series. India's women and men both won on their Republic Day. We will be back again with the second game on Friday
"It was a good game," says MS Dhoni. "Good to see our bowlers making the batsmen play the big shot. Rohit started well, followed by Virat and well supported by Raina. He and Yuvi have had just one net session, which is why I promoted myself ahead of Yuvraj. We bowled superbly after that. I felt once Pandya went through that first over he would bowl much better. He was executing the yorker well, he was bowling the wide ball well."
"We let ourselves in the field today," says Aaron Finch. "And a great innings from Virat. He is hard to stop when he gets going. We executed well with the ball, but let ourselves down with the fielding. 170 would have been a nice score. When we got our chance to bat, I slowed down a bit and cost ourselves a bit of momentum."
"I could take this stadium with me wherever I bat," says Virat Kohli, the Man of the Match. "Just trying to keep things simple. I believe that in T20 as well. This stadium is right up there with anywhere in the world. I would love to thank the fans for coming out and supporting us."
India have taken lead in this T20 series with a win on their Republic Day. Punches and counter punches flew until spin became slightly dominant. Kohli showed his class with a risk-free 90 off 55 balls. Never did he look in a hurry or played any funky shots. Dhoni and Raina supported him well. Australia responded superbly until; Bumrah and Jadeja intervened. Bumrah got the marauding Warner, Jadeja put the brakes on and also got Smith out, and Ashwin delivered the knockout punch with Finch's wicket. For the first time India looked in control in the field as the ball began to turn
And just a note on the Finch dismissal. On the first replays it looked like it pitched well in, and then the replays later showed the ball pitching outside leg, with a shake just as the ball lands. I am just not convinced with the replays shown later

Hardik to Kane Richardson, 1 run
this is seriously ordinary cricket from Australia. Richardson has borrowed a ladder from somewhere and reached this wide ball to take a single. Almost like they are worried about India's over rate. Just going out of their way to play every wide Pandya is bowling
16.4
4
Hardik to Kane Richardson, 4 runs
another wide ball disturbed by an Australian batsman. Dug out to point, and Ashwin shies at the stumps and gives away four overthrows. Can't blame Ashwin. Poor backing up from square leg

Hardik to Kane Richardson, no run
well bowled. Yorker just inside the tram line on the off side. Squeezes it under the bat
