16:13 (IST)23 NOV 2016
IND will be at the bottom of the table after DAY 1 action after New Zealand and Malaysia played out a draw.
16:00 (IST)23 NOV 2016
And that's it. IND loses the first game.
15:59 (IST)23 NOV 2016
1 min remaining now. AUS killing time and takes into the corner.
15:59 (IST)23 NOV 2016
2 minutes remaining in the game.
15:58 (IST)23 NOV 2016
IND moving the ball around. And Rupinder's slap in to the box is wide.
15:58 (IST)23 NOV 2016
A slap forward from Rupinder Pal Singh. But Talwinder misses it completely.
15:57 (IST)23 NOV 2016
4 minutes to go and India desperately looking for a goal.
15:55 (IST)23 NOV 2016
IND has the possession and looking for the equaliser.
15:53 (IST)23 NOV 2016
6 minutes to go.
15:53 (IST)23 NOV 2016
IND back in the game. Rupinder Pal Singh with his second.
15:52 (IST)23 NOV 2016
AND GOAL!!
15:52 (IST)23 NOV 2016
PC for IND
15:51 (IST)23 NOV 2016
But that was a great challenge from Sardar and an equally brilliant save from Chikte who dove backwards like David Seaman to pull out a brilliant save.
15:50 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Raghunath with an awful error at the back and should have been punished for it.
15:50 (IST)23 NOV 2016
WHAT A SAVE! Chikte turns into Superman.
15:49 (IST)23 NOV 2016
India on the counter. Great skills from Talwinder but Affan Yousuf at the end of it fails to get a shot off on the reverse.
15:48 (IST)23 NOV 2016
However, Hayward hits it wide this time.
15:48 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Another PC for AUS. But unfortunate. It hit the foot of the Australian player.
15:47 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Australia's high pressing game have got India scurrying.
15:46 (IST)23 NOV 2016
We are underway in the fourth quarter.
15:42 (IST)23 NOV 2016
The win in the ACT would have given them a huge lift. But that now seems to be in the past.
15:41 (IST)23 NOV 2016
This is going to be such a big blow for India who have the strongest side in the competition as others have opted to experiment.
15:41 (IST)23 NOV 2016
And that's it. 3rd quarter comes to an end.
15:40 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Sardar Singh now has to go. Green card shown to the talisman. IND now down to 10 in the closing minutes.
15:39 (IST)23 NOV 2016
1 minute remaining in the 3rd. IND need to respond soon. Or else this one is a goner.
15:39 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Deflection took the ball up, which was saved by Chikte. But Trent Mitten first to the ball and smashes it home from an acute angle.
15:38 (IST)23 NOV 2016
This is getting disappointing.
15:37 (IST)23 NOV 2016
And AUS score again.
15:37 (IST)23 NOV 2016
2 from 2 so far from PC.
15:37 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Great chance for Australia. Chikte however did great to close down but the result is PC.
15:35 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Surender Kumar smashes one high. And that was as dangerous as it gets. Everyone had to take evasive actions.
15:34 (IST)23 NOV 2016
4 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter.
15:33 (IST)23 NOV 2016
IND have to spring into action. High pressure from Australia and that is paying dividends.
15:32 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Trent Mitten nearly makes IND pay again. Stolen and another shot on goal. But over the goal.
15:32 (IST)23 NOV 2016
IND unlucky there. Could have had a PC pf their own. But no referrals here.
15:31 (IST)23 NOV 2016
And every time Chikte makes anything near a small mistake, we are reminded of Sreejesh's absence.
15:29 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Probably should have been saved. But Hayward won't mind. 2 for Hayward and 2 for AUS.
15:29 (IST)23 NOV 2016
And it's 2 from 2. Australia take the lead.
15:28 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Another big test for Chikte in goal.
15:28 (IST)23 NOV 2016
AUS have scored 1 from 1 so far.
15:28 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Good pressure from the Australians. And that has led to a PC yet again!
15:27 (IST)23 NOV 2016
5 minutes have flown by and nothing doing from either of the teams.
15:26 (IST)23 NOV 2016
India have to look to get the players like Affan Yousuf, Akashdeep and Amir Khan a lot on the ball.
15:25 (IST)23 NOV 2016
We are back underway here.
15:13 (IST)23 NOV 2016
And there it is. End of first half. All square here. All to play for in the second 30 minutes.
15:12 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Attack by the Australians. Hits the post and goes out.
15:11 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Affan Yousuf with the chance again. But crowded out.
15:11 (IST)23 NOV 2016
Pollard and Dawson collide and the give India a good chance.
15:10 (IST)23 NOV 2016
2 minutes remaining in the first half.
That's it from us. Join us again tomorrow at 12:30 pm when India take on Malaysia.
