End of Over 10, India 51/2. Yastika Bhatia 10 off 14, Mithali Raj 3 off 18.
The 50 comes up at the end of the Powerplay. India has gone through the full gamut in the first 10 overs, with Australian bowlers and fielding taking charge of the game early. Mithali has dropped anchor while Bhatia is being the run scorer. Onus on these two to keep the scoreboard ticking with their contrasting styles after the two early wickets.
Just try and keep Haynes out of the game! She's doing it all 🙌 #AUSvIND pic.twitter.com/6geu7IcBFk

End of Over 8, India 45/2. Yastika Bhatia 8 off 8, Mithali Raj 1 off 12.
Bhatia cracks her first boundary of international cricket, already looking good in a crunch situation. Important partnership with her captain for the debutante.
The spotlight shines brighter now on the big gamble taken on the middle order as India slip from 30/0 after 3 overs to 39/2 after 7 with both openers out....
