A historic match in ODI history unfolded as Australia elected to bat on a high scoring pitch. [[Aaron Finch]] completed his half-century and was well on his way when he was run out by [[Suresh Raina]]. After getting to his fifty, Shane Watson was soon dismissed by Vinay Kumar on 59. [[Phillip Hughes]] fell 17 runs short of his 3rd hundred and was dismissed by [[Ravichandran Ashwin]]. Australian captain [[George Bailey (cricketer, born 1982)|George Bailey]] and [[Glenn Maxwell]] both scored fifty and Australia ended their innings on 359/5 with George Bailey standing not out on 92. This was the first instance of all of the top five batsmen scoring at least 50 runs in an ODI, the second instance happened 7 years later in [[Indian cricket team in Australia in 2020–21#2nd ODI|2020]].

India then started nicely and compiled 100 runs in just 16.2 overs with the loss of no wicket.
Both openers [[Shikhar Dhawan]] and [[Rohit Sharma]] completed their fifties and added 176 runs for the first wicket before Dhawan got caught behind off [[James Faulkner (cricketer)|James Faulkner]]. [[Virat Kohli]] then came to the crease and was dropped on the first ball. Kohli then got a good start and completed his half century in 27 Balls. Rohit got to his 3rd hundred in 100 balls, and Kohli got the fastest hundred by any Indian batsman, the century coming in just 52 balls and India went on to win the match by 9 wickets with 39 balls to spare.
