Australia beat India by 7 wickets

Rohit was named as the Man of the Match for his 124. It was going India's way in the first 35 overs of their innings. And from there on, India lost their way in the last 10 overs and with the ball, the Indians were never in the game as the Australians kept the scorecard ticking. Adding to that, there were dropped catches too. Australia now take a 2-0 lead in the series and the question is whether India can keep the series alive at the MCG.

Amazing performance by Australia. Two 300+ run chases in 3 days. Both records! Well batted again George Bailey. #AUSvIND
